ASICS GEL-1130 - White Black - UK 3

For optimal care, gently clean the mesh and leather upper with a soft brush or cloth dipped in a solution of mild soap and lukewarm water. Avoid harsh detergents or machine washing. Allow them to air dry completely away from direct heat.

The ASICS GEL-1130 is designed for everyday comfort, walking, and light training. While it offers excellent cushioning and stability, for dedicated or high-mileage running, ASICS offers more specialized running shoe models with features tailored for running performance.

GEL technology is a proprietary cushioning system from ASICS, strategically placed in the heel of the GEL-1130. It effectively absorbs shock during impact, reducing stress on your joints and providing a highly cushioned, comfortable feel with every step.

The TRUSSTIC system is a lightweight component located in the midfoot area of the sole. Its purpose is to enhance the shoe's structural integrity, providing improved stability and reducing the chance of the shoe twisting, which helps in maintaining a confident stride.

ASICS shoes generally run true to size, but fit can vary based on individual foot shape. We recommend consulting the ASICS size guide if available or trying them on to ensure the best fit. This specific model is a UK size 3.

The GEL-1130 features a mesh upper for breathability, which means it offers limited water resistance. While it can handle light splashes, it is not waterproof. For heavy rain, we recommend choosing footwear designed with water-resistant or waterproof materials.

These sneakers are ideal for everyday wear, casual outings, walking, and light gym activities or training. Their comfort and stability features make them suitable for prolonged periods on your feet.

Ensure you have the correct size. Try adjusting the lacing from bottom to top to relieve pressure points. Wear them for short periods to break them in, as new shoes can feel stiff initially.

Verify that the laces are securely tightened throughout the eyelets, providing a firm hold around your foot. The TRUSSTIC system is designed for midfoot stability; ensure your foot is properly positioned within the shoe.

Regularly clean the mesh and leather with a soft cloth or brush and mild soap. For persistent marks, specialized sneaker cleaners designed for white materials can be effective. Consider applying a protective spray suitable for sneakers to repel dirt and water.

This can sometimes be due to moisture inside the shoe, or the insole rubbing against the footbed. Try removing the insoles, cleaning both the insole and the shoe's interior, ensuring they are completely dry before reinserting. A sprinkle of baby powder or cornstarch under the insole can sometimes help.
