FAQs

Are the Asics GEL-1130 suitable for running marathons?

The GEL-1130 is designed for everyday wear and light training. For marathon running, specialized running shoes with advanced performance features would be more appropriate.

How do I know if I have the right size?

There should be a small amount of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe. The heel should feel secure without slipping, and there should be no pinching or excessive pressure points.

Can these trainers be washed in a machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers as it can damage the materials, especially the leather overlays and the GEL™ cushioning technology.

What is the TRUSSTIC™ Support System?

The TRUSSTIC™ Support System is a component in the midsole that helps to control pronation, providing midfoot structural integrity and stability.

How often should I clean my GEL-1130 trainers?

Clean your trainers as needed, especially after activities that cause them to get dirty. Regular spot cleaning with a damp cloth is recommended to maintain their appearance.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper of the Asics GEL-1130 trainers is primarily constructed with a breathable mesh material, complemented by leather overlays for structure and durability.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Try wearing thinner socks or using the lacing system to adjust the fit.

Reduced cushioning after extended use

The GEL™ cushioning is designed for longevity but may feel less pronounced over time. Regular cleaning and proper storage can help maintain performance.

Slipping during activity

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. The grip may be reduced on wet or unusually slick surfaces.
