FAQs
What is the main benefit of the GEL technology in these trainers?
The GEL technology in the heel provides enhanced shock absorption, offering superior cushioning and comfort for daily wear and reducing impact on your feet.
Are these trainers suitable for running long distances?
The GEL-1130 is designed primarily as a retro-inspired trainer for casual wear and stability. While comfortable for daily activities, they may not offer the specific support or cushioning required for serious long-distance running compared to dedicated running shoes.
How do I clean the White/Verdigris colourway?
Use a damp cloth with mild soap and water to clean the surfaces. A soft brush can help with any textured areas. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing. Always air dry.
What year is this design inspired by?
The GEL-1130 is a tribute to the ninth version of the GEL-1000 series, which was a stability running shoe from 2008.
Can these trainers be worn by both men and women?
Yes, these trainers are designed with a unisex fit, making them suitable for adult wearers of any gender.
What kind of materials are used in the GEL-1130?
The trainers utilize classic materials from the original designs, combined with modern advancements like GEL technology for comfort and durability.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels incorrect
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size based on ASICS sizing charts. Try them on with the type of socks you typically wear. If still uncomfortable, consider if a half-size larger or smaller might be more suitable.
Discomfort after initial wear
New shoes often require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. The GEL cushioning should become more apparent as the shoe conforms to your foot.
Surface dirt accumulation
Gently wipe the trainers with a damp cloth and mild soap. For the midsole, a soft brush can help lift away scuffs. Allow to air dry completely.
