FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running competitions?
The ASICS GEL-1130 GS are designed for everyday wear, light training, and casual activities. They offer good cushioning and support but are not specialized for competitive running.
How do I determine the correct size for my child?
Refer to the ASICS sizing chart and measure your child's foot from heel to toe. As sizing can vary, it's recommended to check reviews or try them on if possible, as they may run slightly small.
Can these trainers be washed in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, cushioning, and structure of the shoes. Hand clean with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary.
What does 'GS' stand for in the product name?
GS typically stands for 'Grade School,' indicating that these shoes are sized for children in that age and size range.
What is the benefit of the GEL technology in the heel?
The GEL technology in the heel provides excellent shock absorption, reducing impact on the feet and joints during walking, running, and jumping, thereby enhancing comfort and protecting against stress.
Are these shoes waterproof?
These trainers are not designed to be waterproof. The upper materials are breathable, which means they offer ventilation but will allow water to pass through.
What makes these shoes eco-friendly?
The 'Lavender Glow' GEL-1130 GS trainers are made partially from recycled materials, contributing to a more sustainable production process.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If the shoes are a new fit, try loosening the laces and wearing them for short periods to break them in. Consider trying a half-size larger if the tightness persists.
Traction seems reduced
Check the rubber outsole for embedded debris or excessive wear. Clean the sole with a damp cloth. If the tread is significantly worn, it may be time to consider a replacement.
Foot discomfort after wear
Verify the sizing is correct and the laces are properly adjusted. The GEL cushioning should provide comfort; if discomfort persists, check for any internal seams or materials causing irritation. Ensure the shoes are appropriate for the activity level.
