ASICS Gel-1130 - Black Graphite Grey Trainers - UK 7

The Gel-1130 features GEL technology for cushioning and TRUSSIC support for stability, making them suitable for general training and everyday wear. For marathon running, specialized running shoes designed for long-distance performance and specific foot strike patterns are generally recommended.

Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe. The heel should feel secure without slipping, and the midfoot should offer a snug but comfortable fit. Trying them on with the type of socks you typically wear is recommended.

While the leather upper offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or puddles. If they get wet, ensure they are properly dried as per the care instructions.

The TRUSSIC support system is a component in the midsole that helps to control the torsional rigidity of the shoe. It enhances stability by preventing excessive twisting of the foot, particularly beneficial for those needing arch support.

Clean your trainers as needed, especially after workouts or if they become visibly dirty. Regular spot cleaning with a damp cloth is good for maintenance. Deep cleaning should be done less frequently to preserve the materials.

The ASICS Gel-1130 series often comes in various colorways. This guide specifically details the Black Graphite Gray model. Please check with retailers for the full range of available colors.

Using over 20% recycled materials in the construction contributes to a reduced environmental impact by conserving resources and minimizing waste in the manufacturing process.

Wear with thin socks initially, and allow the leather to naturally stretch and mold to your foot over a few wears. If still uncomfortable, consider using thicker socks for training or a different size.

This can sometimes occur due to friction between shoe components. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole or around the tongue area.

While GEL technology is durable, cushioning can naturally decrease with extensive use. Ensure the shoes are not being used for activities that exceed their intended design, and consider replacing them when comfort significantly diminishes.
