FAQs

Are the ASICS GEL-1130 Trainers suitable for running?

While these trainers are inspired by running shoe designs and feature running shoe technology, they are primarily intended for lifestyle wear and casual activities. For dedicated high-performance running, a specialized running shoe might be more appropriate.

How do I clean my ASICS GEL-1130 Trainers?

Gently clean the trainers with a damp cloth and mild soap. For the interior, remove insoles if possible and wash them separately. Always air dry away from direct heat.

What does the TRUSSTIC™ support system do?

The TRUSSTIC™ support system is designed to provide stability through the midfoot, preventing twisting and preserving the shoe's structural integrity for a more secure stride.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is constructed with a combination of synthetic leather panelling and breathable mesh.

Are these trainers available in other colors?

The GEL-1130 series is available in various colorways. This specific guide focuses on the Graphite Grey and Gravel model.

How does the GEL™ technology benefit the wearer?

What size is this specific guide for?

Troubleshooting

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes be caused by moisture between the insole and the shoe bed. Try removing the insole, ensuring both are completely dry, and then reinserting the insole firmly.

Unusual wear on the sole

Check your gait and the surfaces you typically walk on. If the wear seems excessive or uneven, consider consulting a footwear specialist.

Discomfort or pressure points

Ensure you have the correct size and width. Try wearing them with appropriate socks. If discomfort persists, the shoe might not be the right fit for your foot shape, and alternative models may be needed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for adult wear and are suitable for individuals seeking comfortable, supportive footwear for casual use. They are compatible with a wide range of casual attire.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: For general cleaning, use a soft brush or a damp cloth to remove dirt and dust from the upper. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the materials.
  2. Lining: If the insoles are removable, take them out and hand wash them with mild soap and water. Allow them to air dry completely before reinserting.
  3. Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with dry paper or cloth to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight.
  4. Storage: Store the trainers in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag or the original box, to protect them from dust and maintain their shape.
