Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your ASICS GEL-1130 trainers last, keep them away from harsh cleaning chemicals. If the trainers become soiled, gently wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, to prevent material deformation. For the best fit, ensure you are wearing the appropriate thickness of sock for your needs, as these shoes are built with a stable, structured footbed that performs best when properly seated.
