Product Information
Full details
The ASICS GEL-1130 trainers are designed for adults seeking a blend of retro style and modern comfort for everyday wear and light athletic activities. Their key benefit is the combination of signature GEL technology for cushioning and a TRUSSTIC support system for stability. A potential consideration is that they are inspired by '00s designs, so the fit might differ from contemporary running shoe standards.

FAQs
Are the ASICS GEL-1130 trainers suitable for long-distance running?
The GEL-1130 is designed primarily for comfort and stability in everyday wear and light training. For long-distance running, more specialized running shoes with advanced cushioning and support features are recommended.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe when standing. The heel should feel secure without slipping.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method to preserve the materials and structure.
What is the TRUSSTIC support system?
The TRUSSTIC support system is a molded component located under the midfoot, designed to improve stability and provide better torsional rigidity, preventing the shoe from twisting unintentionally.
How does the GEL technology benefit the wearer?
The signature ASICS GEL technology is strategically placed, often in the heel, to absorb shock during impact phases of movement, providing enhanced cushioning and reducing stress on joints.
What does 'pulling inspo from the late '00s' mean?
This means the design of the shoe takes inspiration from fashion and footwear styles popular during the late 1990s and early 2000s, giving it a retro aesthetic.
Are these trainers unisex?
Yes, these trainers are designed for unisex adult wear, suitable for anyone regardless of gender.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you are wearing the correct sock thickness. If still too tight, consider loosening the laces or exploring if the shoes come in wider fits. Allow for a short break-in period.
Slight squeaking sound
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try wearing them for a few days to break them in. If the noise persists, check if any parts of the shoe are rubbing against each other and consider a talcum powder application under the insole.
Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces
The rubber outsole provides firm traction, but performance can be reduced on very wet or slippery surfaces. Exercise caution in such conditions.
