FAQs
Are the ASICS Gel-1130 suitable for running marathons?
While the GEL™ technology offers good cushioning, these trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and light athletic activities, not for high-performance, long-distance running like marathons.
What is the main difference between the Gel-1000 series and Gel-1130?
The Gel-1130 draws inspiration from the GEL-1000 series but incorporates updated design elements and potentially refined cushioning technology for enhanced modern comfort and style.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
The synthetic leather offers some protection, but these are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to preserve their material and longevity.
How do I ensure I get the right UK size?
ASICS provides a detailed sizing guide on their official website. It's recommended to measure your foot length and compare it with the guide. Trying them on in person is the most accurate method.
What kind of socks should I wear with these trainers?
For optimal comfort and to prevent rubbing, it's recommended to wear athletic or everyday socks made of breathable materials like cotton or moisture-wicking blends.
Is the 'White and Clay Canyon' colorway available in other genders or age groups?
This specific listing and colorway are for adult males. ASICS may offer similar models or colorways in different ranges, but this particular variant is specified for men.
How often should I clean my Gel-1130 trainers?
Clean your trainers as needed, especially after activities that cause them to get dirty. Regular light cleaning with a damp cloth will help maintain their appearance and material integrity.
Troubleshooting
Sizing seems incorrect
Refer to the ASICS sizing chart and consider trying them on in-store if possible. Foot width can also affect fit.
Reduced cushioning over time
The GEL™ technology is designed for longevity, but extreme wear can reduce effectiveness. Consider replacement after significant mileage or if comfort noticeably decreases.
Discoloration on leather overlays
Wipe gently with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild leather cleaner specifically designed for synthetic leather. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
