FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?
The GEL-1130 is designed as a lifestyle trainer inspired by retro running shoes; it is best for walking and casual daily use rather than competitive running.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash your ASICS trainers, as the agitation and heat can damage the foam midsole and adhesive bonds.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is constructed from an airy open-hole mesh with dynamic synthetic overlays for added durability and style.
Do these trainers provide good arch support?
The foam midsole and GEL tech offer a balanced level of support, though individuals with specific orthopedic needs may prefer adding custom orthotic insoles.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
This model follows standard adult sizing. It is best to measure your foot in the afternoon when it is at its largest and compare it to the UK size 7 specification.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone frequently
Ensure you are using a double knot or checking that the laces are threaded through all eyelets evenly.
Outer mesh getting dirty quickly
Use a specialized sneaker repellent spray before wearing them for the first time to create a protective barrier against dust.
Squeaking sound when walking
Remove the insole and wipe down the interior of the shoe to remove any trapped moisture or fine debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your ASICS GEL-1130 trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Fit: These trainers are sized for adults; ensure your UK size 7 fit provides roughly a thumb's width of space at the toe.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust. For the mesh and overlays, apply a mild soap solution with a damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemicals.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the synthetic materials.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place and use shoe trees or paper stuffing to help the trainers maintain their shape between wears.
