FAQs

What is ASICS GEL technology?

ASICS GEL technology involves strategically placed cushioning units in the midsole that absorb impact during landing and toe-off, providing excellent shock absorption and comfort.

What does the TRUSSTIC support system do?

The TRUSSTIC support system is a component located under the arch of the shoe that works to increase stability, reduce weight, and help control torsion (twisting) during movement.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The ASICS Gel-1130 Trainers are equipped with GEL technology and the TRUSSTIC system, offering cushioning and stability suitable for light running and general fitness activities. For high-mileage or competitive running, you might consider more specialized running shoes.

How do I clean my ASICS Gel-1130 Trainers?

Gently brush off loose dirt, then wipe the synthetic upper and rubber sole with a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and cool water. Air dry them away from direct heat or sunlight.

What is 'late 2000s aesthetics'?

This refers to the design language and visual trends prevalent in athletic footwear during the late 2000s, often characterized by specific paneling, color blocking, and sole geometries, as seen in models like the GEL-KAYANO 14.

Are these trainers eco-friendly?

The insoles of the ASICS Gel-1130 Trainers are manufactured using a solution dyeing method, which significantly reduces water consumption and carbon dioxide emissions compared to traditional dyeing processes.

Do ASICS Gel-1130 Trainers run true to size?

Info needed: Sizing can sometimes vary between models and individuals. It's generally recommended to refer to ASICS' official size guide or try them on to ensure the best fit.

Troubleshooting

Trainers feel too tight or loose

Ensure you have the correct size. Adjust lacing for a more customized fit. Consider trying them on with different sock thicknesses.

Foot discomfort during wear

Check your lacing tension; it might be too tight. Ensure your socks are comfortable and appropriate. If discomfort persists, consider consulting a footwear specialist.

Squeaking sound

Sometimes new shoes can squeak. This often resolves with wear. If it persists, check if the insole is properly seated. A small amount of powder under the insole can sometimes help.

Odor developing inside trainers

Allow trainers to air out thoroughly after each wear. Remove insoles to dry separately. Use shoe deodorizers or natural remedies like baking soda in socks placed inside the shoes overnight.

Laces frequently come untied

Ensure you are using a double knot. If laces are old or worn, consider replacing them with new ones that have better grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Getting started with your ASICS Gel-1130 Trainers is straightforward:

  1. Unboxing: Remove your trainers from their packaging.
  2. Lacing: As a lace-up model, adjust the laces to achieve a snug, comfortable fit across your foot. Ensure they are not too tight to avoid pressure points, but secure enough to prevent your foot from sliding.

Care

Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your ASICS Gel-1130 Trainers:

  • Cleaning:
  1. Gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush or cloth.
  2. Mix a small amount of mild soap with cool water.
  3. Use a soft cloth or sponge, lightly dampened with the soapy water, to wipe down the synthetic upper and rubber sole.
  4. For mesh areas, use a very soft brush (like an old toothbrush) and gentle circular motions.
  5. Wipe clean with a damp cloth (water only) to remove any soap residue.
  6. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage materials.
  • Drying:
  • Always air dry your trainers at room temperature.
  • Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources (like radiators or tumble dryers), as these can cause materials to warp or degrade.
  • You can stuff them with newspaper to help absorb moisture and maintain their shape while drying.
  • Storage:
  • Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
  • Keep them in a well-ventilated area to prevent odors.
  • Insole Care: The insole is made with a sustainable dyeing method. Periodically remove insoles to air them out, and clean them gently if needed, following the general cleaning advice above.
