FAQs

Are the GEL-1130 trainers suitable for running?

The GEL-1130 trainers offer good cushioning and stability, making them suitable for moderate, shorter runs. For high-mileage or performance-focused running, ASICS may offer specialized running shoe models.

What is the main benefit of the TRUSSTIC™ Support System?

The TRUSSTIC™ Support System is designed to provide midfoot integrity and stability, helping to control pronation and prevent excessive twisting of the foot during movement.

Can I machine wash my GEL-1130 trainers?

It is not recommended to machine wash ASICS GEL-1130 trainers. Machine washing can damage the delicate materials, adhesives, and cushioning technologies. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method.

What materials are the GEL-1130 trainers made from?

These trainers feature a mesh upper with leather overlays for a combination of breathability and support, and a durable rubber outsole.

How does the GEL™ Technology Cushioning work?

GEL™ Technology Cushioning is a silicone-based material strategically placed in the midsole to absorb shock effectively during impact phases of movement, providing a softer feel underfoot.

What is the difference between the GEL-1130 and other ASICS series?

The GEL-1130 is a tribute to the GEL-1000™ series, blending heritage design with modern comfort and stability features like GEL™ and TRUSSTIC™ technologies. Specific ASICS series cater to different needs, from performance running to lifestyle wear.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise from shoes

This can sometimes occur due to friction between the insole and midsole. Try removing the insole, cleaning both surfaces, and reinserting it. A small amount of talcum powder under the insole might also help.

Discomfort after initial wear

New shoes, especially those with supportive technology, may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time.

Reduced grip on surfaces

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. If the shoe has been heavily worn, the tread pattern might be diminished, suggesting it's time for a replacement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The ASICS GEL-1130™ trainers require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort and performance.

Compatibility: These trainers are suitable for a wide range of activities, including walking, casual wear, light training, and gym sessions. They are designed for adult use across genders.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution with water and a cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight when not in use. Using a shoe tree can help maintain their shape.
