FAQs
What activities are these trainers best suited for?
These trainers are ideal for casual everyday wear, light running, and general training activities. Their blend of style, comfort, and support makes them versatile for various low to moderate intensity uses.
How do I clean the suede parts of my ASICS GEL-1130 trainers?
For suede, use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, a suede eraser or a suede-specific cleaner is recommended. Always test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first and avoid saturating the suede with water.
Are these trainers true to size?
ASICS trainers typically run true to size, but fit can vary slightly by individual foot shape. We recommend ordering your usual UK shoe size. If you are between sizes, consider trying the larger size for comfort.
What is ASICS GEL technology?
ASICS GEL technology is a cushioning system that uses silicone-based material placed in key areas of the midsole. It's designed to absorb shock during impact, providing excellent comfort and reducing stress on your joints.
What does the TRUSSTIC support system do?
The TRUSSTIC system is a technology embedded in the midfoot area of the sole. Its purpose is to provide stability and reduce the weight of the sole unit without compromising the structural integrity of the shoe, enhancing overall support during movement.
How does the sustainable sock liner benefit me?
While the sustainable dyeing process primarily benefits the environment by reducing water usage and carbon emissions, it ensures that your trainers are made with a more eco-conscious approach. Functionally, the sock liner still provides comfort and contributes to the overall fit of the shoe.
Can I wear these trainers in the rain?
While the trainers offer general protection, the suede material is sensitive to moisture. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions can damage the suede and affect its appearance. It's advisable to protect them with a water-resistant spray designed for suede or choose different footwear in very wet weather.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too loose or too tight.
Adjust the lace-up fastening. Ensure laces are evenly tightened from bottom to top to achieve a personalized, secure fit. Experiment with different lacing techniques if standard lacing doesn't provide desired comfort.
Suede material appears dirty or stained.
Use a specialized suede brush to gently remove surface dirt. For more stubborn stains, apply a suede eraser or a small amount of dedicated suede cleaner, following the product's instructions. Avoid using water directly on suede unless specified by the cleaner.
General dirt or scuffs on white surfaces.
Wipe down affected areas with a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water. For persistent scuffs, a magic eraser or specialized shoe cleaner for white sneakers can be effective. Clean regularly to prevent buildup.
Experiencing foot discomfort during prolonged wear.
While GEL technology offers excellent cushioning, ensure the trainers are the correct size for your feet. Consider if a different lacing technique could improve support. For persistent discomfort, consult a foot specialist, as personal biomechanics vary.
Trainers feel less stable than expected.
Ensure laces are tied securely and that the fit is snug around the midfoot. The TRUSSTIC system provides inherent stability, but an improperly secured shoe can diminish its effect. Check that the shoe's sole is clean and free of debris that might affect traction.
