FAQs

What makes the ASICS Gel-1130 sustainable?

The ASICS Gel-1130 incorporates over 20% recycled materials in its construction, contributing to a more sustainable manufacturing process.

Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?

While the GEL technology provides excellent cushioning, the Gel-1130 is primarily designed as a versatile trainer for everyday wear and lighter athletic activities. For marathon running, dedicated marathon shoes might offer more specialized support and cushioning.

How do I clean the leather and synthetic upper?

Use a soft cloth dampened with a mild soap and water solution to gently clean the upper. Blot the area clean and allow to air dry. Avoid machine washing or soaking.

What is the benefit of the TRUSSIC support?

The TRUSSIC support is an arch support system located in the midfoot that enhances stability and helps prevent unwanted twisting of the foot.

Can I wear these shoes in wet conditions?

These trainers are not waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, prolonged exposure to heavy rain or wet surfaces is not recommended and may affect the materials.

What is the intended gender for this shoe model?

This specific model is designed for men (adult males).

How does the 'modern aesthetic' differ from previous Gel-1130 versions?

The Gel-1130 model celebrates nine generations of design evolution, meaning this version likely features updated design cues and possibly material choices that align with current trends, while still honoring its heritage.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you have the correct size. If slightly snug, wear them for short periods to allow them to mold to your feet. Consider using thicker socks for a tighter fit or thinner socks for a looser fit.

Reduced cushioning over time

The GEL cushioning is designed for durability, but its effectiveness can decrease with heavy use. Ensure you are not exceeding the intended use for running and training shoes. Clean the shoes regularly to maintain material integrity.

Discoloration of materials

Avoid exposing the shoes to direct sunlight for extended periods, as this can cause fading. Clean stains promptly using the recommended spot-cleaning method.
