Full details

Their key benefit is the combination of a breathable mesh upper with synthetic overlays, a supportive TRUSSTIC system, and GEL technology for a smooth, comfortable ride. A potential consideration is their specific design, which leans into a retro aesthetic that may not suit all fashion preferences.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?
The ASICS GEL-1130 trainers are designed with GEL technology for comfort, but they are primarily intended for casual wear, city streets, and light activity. For dedicated long-distance running, ASICS offers specialized running shoe models.
How do I determine my correct shoe size?
Refer to the ASICS sizing chart available on their website or consult with a footwear specialist. Measure your foot length and compare it to the provided size guide. These trainers are available in UK adult sizes.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning technology. Hand wash gently with a damp cloth and mild soap as per the care instructions.
What is the TRUSSTIC support system?
The TRUSSTIC support system is a component in the midsole that provides stability. It helps to prevent excessive twisting of the foot during movement, offering a more secure stride.
How does the GEL technology benefit the wearer?
The signature GEL technology, particularly in the heel, is designed to absorb shock efficiently, providing cushioning and reducing impact on your joints for a smoother and more comfortable walking experience.
What is the primary inspiration for the GEL-1130 design?
The design is inspired by the aesthetics of the late 2000s, specifically paying tribute to the ninth version of the GEL-1000 series of running shoes from 2008.
Are these trainers unisex?
While the product description indicates 'Male' for this specific variant, the GEL-1130 series often features unisex sizing and designs. Please check the specific product details for gender suitability or available variants.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have the correct size. Try wearing them with different sock thicknesses. Loosen the laces to allow for more room.
Traction seems insufficient
Check the rubber outsole for excessive wear or debris. Clean the outsole with water and a brush. For surfaces with very poor grip, consider alternative footwear.
Discoloration or material damage after cleaning
Ensure you followed the recommended cleaning instructions. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. Always air dry away from direct heat.

Care:
