FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?

The ASICS Gel-1130 trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and light activities. For marathon running, it is recommended to use specialized running shoes that offer advanced support and cushioning for high-impact endurance sports.

How do I determine my correct UK shoe size?

It's best to measure your foot length from heel to toe while standing. Compare this measurement to the ASICS size guide available on their official website or product pages to find the corresponding UK size.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, especially the GEL™ technology and synthetic leather overlays. Hand wash gently with mild soap and water as per the care instructions.

What is the primary benefit of the GEL™ technology?

The GEL™ technology in the midsole provides excellent shock absorption, reducing the impact on your feet and joints during movement, leading to enhanced comfort.

How do these shoes differ from other ASICS running shoes?

The Gel-1130 draws inspiration from heritage models and focuses on retro style combined with everyday comfort, making it more suited for casual wear than high-performance running shoes which often have more advanced technical features for specific athletic demands.

What materials are used in the ASICS Gel-1130?

These trainers feature synthetic leather overlays for structure and durability, combined with other materials typical for comfortable footwear uppers and midsoles, including the signature GEL™ cushioning system.

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels incorrect.

Refer to the ASICS sizing chart and measure your foot accurately. Consider trying on a pair in-store if possible, or consult customer reviews for insights on fit.

Shoe squeaks during walking.

This can sometimes be due to moisture inside the shoe or between the sole and insole. Try removing the insole and drying both thoroughly. Ensure socks are not excessively damp.

Reduced cushioning over time.

The GEL™ technology provides long-lasting cushioning, but wear and tear can affect its effectiveness. Ensure you are using the shoes for their intended purpose (casual wear, light activity) and consider replacing them if significant wear is observed.
