FAQs

Are ASICS Gel-1130 Trainers suitable for running?

While inspired by a running shoe blueprint (GEL-KAYANO™ 14), the Gel-1130 is primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. It offers excellent comfort for walking and everyday activities but is not engineered for the high-impact demands of serious running.

What is ASICS GEL technology?

ASICS GEL technology is a cushioning system strategically placed in the midsole of the shoe, typically in the heel and/or forefoot. It's designed to absorb shock and provide a softer landing, enhancing overall comfort and reducing the impact on your joints.

How do I clean my Gel-1130 Trainers?

We recommend hand washing your trainers. Use a damp cloth with mild soap for synthetic leather and a soft brush with mild detergent for mesh and textile areas. Always air dry them away from direct heat or sunlight. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can cause damage.

Are these trainers breathable?

Yes, the ASICS Gel-1130 Trainers feature a mesh and textile upper construction which is designed to be highly breathable, promoting airflow to help keep your feet cool and dry during wear.

What materials are used in the Gel-1130 Trainers?

The trainers are constructed from a blend of materials including mesh and textile for the upper, synthetic leather paneling for support, and a durable rubber outsole for traction. The lining is textile.

Are they true to size?

Most customers find the ASICS Gel-1130 Trainers fit true to size. However, foot shapes vary, so if possible, try them on or consult the ASICS official sizing chart for the most accurate fit.

Can I wear these trainers all day?

Absolutely! The Gel-1130 Trainers are specifically designed for exceptional all-day comfort, making them an excellent choice for prolonged wear, daily commutes, and casual activities.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort or rubbing during wear.

Ensure you have the correct size and width. Check your lacing for proper tightness; it shouldn't be too loose or too tight. Allow for a break-in period, as the materials may need to conform to your foot.

Slipping on certain surfaces.

Regularly clean the rubber outsole to remove any embedded dirt or debris that might reduce traction. If the outsole is excessively worn smooth, it may be time for a replacement pair.

Unpleasant odour developing inside the trainers.

Remove insoles after wear to allow them to air out. Consider using odor-absorbing shoe inserts, foot powder, or a shoe deodorizer spray. Ensure shoes are thoroughly dried if they get wet.

Trainers appear dirty or discolored.

Follow the spot cleaning instructions provided in the 'Product Care' section. For persistent stains, a specialized sneaker cleaner designed for mesh and synthetic materials may be effective. Avoid abrasive scrubbing that can damage materials.

Material showing signs of premature wear.

Ensure the trainers are being used for their intended purpose (casual/lifestyle, not intensive sports). Inspect for specific areas of wear. Proper cleaning and storage can help prolong their life. If within warranty, contact customer service.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

First Use & Compatibility

  1. Sizing: The ASICS Gel-1130 Trainers typically run true to size, but we recommend trying them on with the type of socks you'll usually wear. Refer to ASICS' official sizing guide if you are unsure.
  2. Break-In Period: While comfortable from the start, allow for a short break-in period of a few wears to fully mold the shoes to your feet.
  3. Intended Use: Designed for adult female users, these trainers are built for casual wear and light activity. Ensure this aligns with your intended use for optimal satisfaction.

Product Care

Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your Gel-1130 Trainers:

  1. Spot Cleaning: For minor dirt and scuffs, gently wipe the synthetic leather panels with a damp cloth and mild soap. For mesh areas, use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) and a small amount of mild detergent with water.
  2. Deep Cleaning: For a more thorough clean, hand wash with cool water and a gentle shoe cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach.
  3. Drying: Always air dry your trainers at room temperature. Do not put them in a washing machine or dryer, as this can damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning.
  4. Odour Prevention: Remove insoles regularly to air them out. Using shoe deodorizers or baking soda can help keep them fresh.
  5. Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
