FAQs

Are the Asics Gel-1130 suitable for running marathons?

The Gel-1130 trainers are designed for everyday comfort and casual wear. While they feature GEL cushioning, they are not specifically engineered for the demands of marathon running, which typically requires specialized shoes with enhanced support and cushioning for high mileage.

How do I find the correct size?

Refer to the UK adult sizing guide provided by Asics or the retailer. The product details mention UK Adult size 7.5 for this specific variant. It's recommended to try them on if possible or measure your foot length to compare with the brand's sizing chart.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash the Asics Gel-1130 trainers, as this can damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning components. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method.

What is the primary benefit of the GEL cushioning?

The GEL cushioning in the midsole is designed to absorb shock effectively during impact, providing a softer landing and reducing stress on your feet and joints for improved comfort during daily activities.

What does 'retro running-inspired style' mean?

This refers to the design aesthetic, which draws inspiration from classic athletic shoes of the past. It typically includes elements like a low-profile silhouette, specific paneling, and design lines reminiscent of older running shoe models.

Are these trainers waterproof?

No, the Asics Gel-1130 trainers are not waterproof. They feature a mesh upper designed for breathability, which means they are not resistant to water.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and try to re-tie them with less tension. If the issue persists, ensure you have the correct size. Consider using thinner socks or breaking them in gradually with short periods of wear.

Discomfort after extended wear

Ensure the laces are tied correctly to provide adequate support. Check that the insole is properly seated. If discomfort continues, these trainers may not be suitable for very long periods of standing or walking, and a different shoe model might be needed.

Squeaking sound from the sole

This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between layers or on the outsole. Ensure the shoes are completely dry. If the noise persists, try applying a small amount of talcum powder under the insole.

Care Instructions: To maintain the quality and appearance of your Gel-1130 trainers:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the exterior with a slightly damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For mesh areas, use a soft brush. Avoid using harsh detergents or soaking the shoes.
  • Insoles: If the insoles become dirty, they can often be removed and gently hand-washed with mild soap and cold water. Ensure they are completely dry before reinserting.
  • Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
  • Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, when not in use. Using a shoe tree can help maintain their shape.
