FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The ASICS Gel-1130 Trainers provide excellent cushioning and stability for everyday walking and light recreational activities. While they incorporate running shoe technology, they are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear rather than intense or long-distance running performance.

How do I clean my Gel-1130 trainers?

Gently wipe the mesh and synthetic overlays with a damp, soft cloth and a mild soap solution if necessary. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid machine washing or using harsh chemicals, as this can damage the materials.

What is GEL technology?

GEL technology is ASICS' proprietary cushioning system, typically placed in the heel (as in the Gel-1130) or forefoot. It's designed to absorb shock, reduce impact, and provide a soft landing, enhancing overall comfort during wear.

Are these trainers true to size?

ASICS generally offers consistent sizing, but fit can vary by individual foot shape. We recommend trying them on to ensure the best fit, making sure there's enough room in the toe box and your heel feels secure without excessive slipping.

Are these trainers made with recycled materials?

Yes, the ASICS Gel-1130 Trainers are partly made from recycled materials, reflecting a commitment to more sustainable production practices and reducing environmental impact.

Can I wear these trainers in all weather conditions?

These trainers feature a breathable mesh upper, which is excellent for ventilation in mild to warm conditions. They are not specifically designed to be waterproof, so it's advisable to avoid heavy rain or wet conditions to maintain their condition and comfort.

Troubleshooting

Trainers feel too tight or loose

Adjust the lacing system for a customized fit. Ensure you're wearing appropriate socks for your usual use. If still uncomfortable, re-check sizing as individual foot shapes vary.

Foot odour develops quickly

Ensure trainers air out completely after each use. Consider using odour-absorbing inserts or a shoe deodorizer. Wearing moisture-wicking socks can also help manage moisture.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes be caused by moisture trapped between the insole and the shoe's base. Remove insoles, clean and dry both the insole and shoe interior thoroughly. Also, ensure the outsole is clean and free of debris.

Loss of cushioning feel over time

While GEL technology is durable, prolonged heavy use can cause material compression. Ensure you are using them for their intended lifestyle/light activity purpose. If insoles are removable, consider replacing them with fresh ones.

Outsole traction seems reduced

Inspect the rubber outsole for embedded dirt, small stones, or excessive wear on the tread pattern. Clean the tread thoroughly. If the tread is significantly worn, it may indicate it's time to consider new trainers.

Setup (First Use) 1. Try Them On: Ensure you try on both trainers with the type of socks you typically wear. 2. Adjust Lacing: Use the normal lacing system to adjust the fit so it feels snug but not overly tight. There should be enough room to wiggle your toes slightly. 3. Walk Around: Take a few steps to assess the comfort and fit. Ensure your heel feels secure and doesn't slip excessively. ### Compatibility These trainers are designed for: * Adults: Suitable for all adults who prioritize comfort and style. * Unisex Use: Their design and features cater to a wide audience. * Casual Wear: Ideal for daily walking, urban exploration, and lifestyle activities. * Light Athletic Use: Suitable for light recreational activities where comfort and stability are key. ### Care and Maintenance Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your ASICS Gel-1130 Trainers. 1. Regular Cleaning: For general dirt and grime, gently wipe the mesh upper and synthetic overlays with a damp, soft cloth or sponge. 2. Stubborn Stains: For tougher marks, use a mild soap solution mixed with water. Apply with a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) and gently scrub, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. 3. Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, as these can damage materials. 4. Odour Control: To prevent odours, allow trainers to air out after each use. You may also use shoe deodorizers or baking soda sachets. 5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. 6. Avoid Machine Washing: Do not put your trainers in a washing machine or dryer, as this can damage the materials and structure. 7. Sole Care: Regularly check the rubber outsole for any embedded debris and remove it to maintain traction.
