Lacing: Before your first wear, ensure the laces are threaded correctly and adjust them to achieve a comfortable, snug fit around your foot. Pay attention to how tight you tie them to avoid pressure points.
Break-In: While comfortable from the start, allow for a short break-in period with lighter activities to fully mold the shoes to your feet.
These trainers are designed for adult males and are suitable for a wide range of activities, including:
Running: Especially for neutral to mild overpronators seeking cushioning and stability.
Walking & Daily Wear: Providing comfort and support for everyday activities.
Light Cross-Training: Suitable for gym workouts that don't involve heavy lateral movements.
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your GEL-1130 Trainers:
Cleaning: For suede and leather panels, use a soft brush to gently remove dirt and dust. For mesh areas, use a mild soap solution with a soft cloth or sponge, then wipe with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Drying: Always air dry your trainers away from direct heat sources (like radiators or direct sunlight), as high heat can damage materials and adhesives.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. If storing for extended periods, consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
Odor Control: Remove insoles periodically to air them out. You can also use shoe deodorizers to keep them fresh.
Sustainable Sock Liner: Note that the sock liner's dyeing process is designed for sustainability; continue general cleaning practices without special considerations for this feature.
