FAQs

What is the main benefit of the GEL technology in these trainers?

The GEL technology in the heel provides excellent shock absorption and cushioning, reducing impact on the feet and joints during running and other high-impact activities.

Are these trainers suitable for all types of sports?

The ASICS GEL-1130 trainers are specifically designed for running and athletic activities that require good support and cushioning. While versatile, they are optimized for running performance.

How do I clean my ASICS GEL-1130 trainers?

It is best to spot clean these trainers with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, and always air dry them away from direct heat.

What does the TRUSSTIC support system do?

The TRUSSTIC support system enhances stability by controlling torsion (twisting) in the midsole, helping to maintain the structural integrity of the shoe and guide the foot through a natural motion.

Do these trainers come in different widths?

The ASICS GEL-1130 generally comes in a standard width. If you find them too narrow, it may be beneficial to try a half-size up or consult with a footwear specialist for alternative options.

How long will the cushioning last?

The GEL cushioning is designed for durability, but like all footwear, its effectiveness will gradually decrease with prolonged and extensive use. Regular inspection and consideration of replacement after significant mileage are recommended.

What age group are these trainers intended for?

These trainers are specifically designed for kids, bridging the gap between younger children and aspiring young athletes.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or narrow

Ensure laces are loosened before putting on. If the narrow fit persists, consider trying a half-size up or exploring wider fit options if available.

Reduced cushioning over time

GEL cushioning is designed for durability, but performance may naturally decrease with extensive use. For prolonged optimal comfort, consider replacement after significant wear.

Traction seems poor on wet surfaces

The rubber outsole offers good traction, but performance can be reduced on very wet or slippery surfaces. Exercise caution in such conditions.

Mesh upper appears dirty

Gently wipe the mesh with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn dirt, use a soft brush and allow to air dry completely.
