FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the GEL® technology in these trainers?

The GEL® technology in the heel provides enhanced shock absorption, contributing to superior cushioning and all-day comfort.

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

The ASICS GEL-1130 trainers are designed for casual wear and light athletic activities. They are not specialized for high-performance running like marathons.

How should I clean the synthetic leather parts of the trainers?

You can clean the synthetic leather with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher spots, use a mild soap solution and wipe clean with a damp cloth, then air dry.

What is the inspiration behind the GEL-1130 design?

The GEL-1130 trainers are inspired by the ninth iteration of the GEL-1000™ series and share similar aesthetics with the GEL-KAYANO® 14 sneaker.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the trainers. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth is the preferred method.

What material is primarily used in the construction?

The trainers feature a combination of traditional materials updated with synthetic leather paneling.

Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?

While designed for a standard fit, individual experiences may vary. Trying them on or checking specific sizing advice from retailers is recommended.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking sound from shoes

This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try wearing them for a few more days. If it persists, check if the insole is loose or if moisture is trapped.

Discomfort during initial wear

New shoes may require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time.

Laces are difficult to tie or come undone

Ensure you are using a secure knot. Consider using different lacing techniques or lace locks if the issue persists.

Uneven wear on the sole

Check your gait and posture. Uneven wear can sometimes indicate underlying biomechanical issues. For the shoes, ensure they are used for their intended purpose.
