FAQs

Are the ASICS GEL-1130 sneakers true to size?

Most users find the GEL-1130 fits true to size, but since it is based on a structured 2008 design, we recommend trying them on with your preferred daily socks to ensure proper width.

Can I run a marathon in these?

While the shoe was originally a 2008 running model, it is now primarily categorized as a lifestyle sneaker; it is better suited for casual activities rather than long-distance training.

How do I clean the insoles?

The insoles are solution-dyed for environmental sustainability; it is best to remove them and wipe them down with a damp cloth and air dry them completely.

What is the TRUSSTIC system?

It is a rigid, bridge-like component under the arch that helps improve the shoe's stability and prevents it from twisting during movement.

Is the material waterproof?

No, the leather and textile upper are not waterproof. We recommend using a sneaker-safe water repellent spray if you frequently walk in damp conditions.

Troubleshooting

Foot feels tight after a long day

Feet naturally swell during the day; ensure you are lacing your trainers slightly looser in the morning to accommodate this change.

Surface scuffs on the leather

Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft eraser to gently buff out surface-level scuffs without damaging the texture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because the GEL-1130 features leather construction, proper maintenance is vital. To clean the exterior, use a soft, dry brush to remove loose dirt, followed by a damp cloth with mild soap for localized spots; avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemicals. Ensure you break the shoes in gradually over a few days to allow the leather to conform to your foot shape. Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation. Periodically check the laces and ensure the insole is properly seated to maintain optimal support.
