Check Fit: Upon receiving your trainers, try them on with the type of socks you typically wear. Ensure there is about a thumb's width space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe.
Lacing: Adjust the laces to achieve a snug yet comfortable fit. Avoid lacing too tightly, which can restrict blood flow, or too loosely, which can lead to instability.
Activities: Best suited for casual walking, daily wear, light urban activities, and social occasions. Not recommended for high-impact sports, trail running, or heavy athletic training.
Environments: Ideal for dry, urban, or indoor environments. Avoid use in extremely wet, muddy, or rugged outdoor conditions due to the mesh upper and lifestyle design.
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your ASICS GEL-1130 Trainers.
Cleaning the Upper (Mesh and Synthetic Overlays):
Gently brush off any loose dirt or dust with a soft-bristled brush.
Mix a small amount of mild soap (like dish soap) with lukewarm water.
Dampen a clean cloth or soft brush with the soapy water and gently scrub the mesh and synthetic overlays.
Wipe away any soap residue with a clean, damp cloth.
Avoid Submerging: Do not submerge the entire shoe in water.
Cleaning the Outsole: Use a stiff brush or old toothbrush to remove dirt and debris from the rubber outsole.
Drying: Allow your trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or using artificial heat sources (like a hairdryer or radiator), which can damage materials.
Odor Control: Remove insoles periodically to air them out. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes when not in use.
