FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The ASICS GEL-1130 trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and walking. While they offer good cushioning and support, they are not engineered for high-impact running or intense athletic training.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Refer to the ASICS sizing guide and measure your foot length. These trainers are available in UK adult sizes. Ensure a comfortable fit without being too tight or too loose.
What is the TRUSSTIC support system?
The TRUSSTIC support system is a component in the midsole that provides stability by controlling torsion, or twisting, in the shoe and maintaining the structural integrity of the midfoot.
How does GEL technology benefit the shoe?
ASICS' signature GEL technology is strategically placed, typically in the heel, to absorb shock effectively, providing a cushioned and comfortable feel underfoot and reducing impact on joints.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
It is not recommended to machine wash ASICS trainers. Hand washing with mild soap and water, as per the care instructions, is the best way to clean them and preserve their materials.
What is the main inspiration behind the GEL-1130 design?
The GEL-1130 trainers draw inspiration from the late 2000s and are a tribute to the ninth version of the GEL-1000 series, specifically the 2008 stability running shoe, updated with modern aesthetics and comfort features.
What is the material of the upper?
The upper of the ASICS GEL-1130 trainers is constructed from breathable mesh with synthetic overlays.
Troubleshooting
Slight stiffness upon first wear
The trainers may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time as they become more comfortable.
Dirt accumulation on white mesh
Use a soft brush with a mild soap and water solution to gently clean the affected areas. Wipe clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.
Reduced cushioning over time
While designed for lasting comfort, extreme or prolonged heavy use can affect cushioning. Ensure proper care and consider replacement after extensive wear.
