FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?
The Asics GEL-1130 trainers are designed for everyday wear and light training. For marathon running, it is recommended to use specialized Asics running shoes that offer more advanced cushioning and support for high-impact endurance activities.
How do I determine my correct size?
Refer to the Asics sizing chart available online or in stores. Measure your foot length from heel to toe and compare it with the chart. The specific size listed (e.g., UK 6.5) corresponds to a particular foot measurement.
Can I wear these shoes in wet conditions?
While the mesh offers some breathability, these trainers are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the materials and maintain comfort.
What is the benefit of the TRUSSTIC support system?
The TRUSSTIC system provides midfoot integrity and support, helping to control pronation and enhance stability during movement, reducing the risk of foot fatigue or injury.
How does the dope-dyed sockliner contribute to sustainability?
The dope-dyeing process reduces water consumption and carbon emissions compared to traditional dyeing methods, making the manufacturing process more environmentally friendly.
What is the primary difference between the GEL-1130 and other Asics trainers?
The GEL-1130 is distinguished by its specific retro-inspired design rooted in the 2008 GEL-1000 series, featuring visible GEL cushioning and a TRUSSTIC system for balanced support and style suitable for urban environments.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or narrow
Try wearing thinner socks or consider a shoe stretcher if the issue is minor. If the tightness is significant, exchanging for a wider fit if available or a larger size might be necessary.
Cushioning feels insufficient
Ensure you are using the correct size. For added comfort, consider purchasing aftermarket insoles designed for enhanced cushioning.
Squeaking sound during movement
This can sometimes be caused by friction between shoe parts. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or a moisture-absorbing agent inside the shoe.
Mesh upper appears dirty
Gently clean the mesh with a soft brush and a mild soap and water solution. Blot with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.
