Product Information
Full details
The Asics GEL-1130 Trainers in White and Sage Frost are designed for adult women seeking a blend of retro style and modern comfort for everyday wear. Their key benefit is providing stable cushioning and a lifestyle-oriented aesthetic, though they may offer less specialized support for intense athletic activities compared to performance-focused running shoes. This retro-inspired runner, originally from the GEL-1000™ series, combines synthetic leather and breathable mesh with GEL™ technology for lasting comfort and a TRUSSTIC™ support system for enhanced stability. The design also incorporates sustainable practices by using a solution dyeing process for the sockliner, reducing water and carbon emissions.

FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
The Asics GEL-1130 Trainers are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear. While they offer cushioning and stability, they lack the advanced features and specialized support required for marathon running or intense athletic training.
How do I determine my correct UK size?
Refer to the size chart provided by Asics or the retailer. Generally, UK sizes are listed directly. The product information indicates this specific model is a UK size 3.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning technology. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method.
What does the 'TRUSSTIC™ support system' do?
The TRUSSTIC™ support system is a midfoot stability feature that helps control pronation (inward rolling of the foot) and provides torsional rigidity, enhancing overall stability during movement.
What is the benefit of the solution dyeing process for the sockliner?
The solution dyeing process significantly reduces water consumption and carbon emissions during manufacturing compared to traditional dyeing methods, making the production more environmentally friendly.
Are there other color options available?
While this guide focuses on the White and Sage Frost colorway, other color options may be available depending on the retailer and stock. Please check with your point of purchase.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is constructed with a combination of synthetic leather panelling and breathable mesh underlays.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight.
Ensure you have the correct size. If slightly tight, try wearing thinner socks or loosening the laces. For significant tightness, consider if a larger size is needed.
Reduced cushioning over time.
The GEL™ cushioning is designed for longevity, but performance may slightly decrease with extensive use. Ensure the shoe is clean and not subjected to excessive heat.
Discoloration of materials.
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean with appropriate mild cleaners as per care instructions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trainers are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort and fit.
Compatibility: The Asics GEL-1130 Trainers are designed for general adult use. They are compatible with a wide range of casual apparel.
Care:
- Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the mesh and synthetic leather surfaces with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners that could damage the materials.
- Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and water to clean the rubber parts. Ensure all soap residue is removed.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources such as radiators or hairdryers, as this can deform the shoe.
- Sockliner: The sockliner can often be removed for separate cleaning. Hand wash with mild soap and water, then air dry completely before reinserting.
