FAQs

Are the ASICS GEL-1130 suitable for running marathons?

The GEL-1130 is designed as a lifestyle trainer, drawing inspiration from running shoe technology. For marathon running or high-intensity athletic training, specialized performance running shoes from ASICS are recommended.

How do I clean the mesh and leather parts?

Use a soft cloth slightly dampened with water and mild soap. Gently wipe the mesh and leather areas. For stubborn dirt, a soft brush can be used on the mesh. Always allow them to air dry.

What is the TRUSSTIC™ Support System?

The TRUSSTIC™ Support System is a component located in the midfoot area of the shoe. It helps control the shoe's twist, providing added stability and improving the efficiency of your stride.

Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?

While the materials offer some resistance, these trainers are not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or lightly damp conditions. Avoid heavy rain or submersion in water.

What is the main difference between the GEL-1130 and older ASICS running shoes?

The GEL-1130 is a modern interpretation that pays homage to the GEL-1000™ series. It incorporates heritage design elements with current comfort and support technologies for everyday lifestyle wear, rather than being a direct performance upgrade for serious running.

Where can I find other sizes or colors?

This guide focuses on the Glacier Grey / Pure Silver model in Size 5.5 UK. Other sizes and potential color variations are available through ASICS retailers or the official ASICS website.

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels incorrect

Refer to the ASICS size chart for accurate measurements. Consider that different models may have slight fit variations. If possible, try them on before purchasing or check the return policy.

Discomfort during 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.

Laces come undone frequently

Ensure the laces are tied securely using a double knot. Consider replacing the laces with a textured or 'grippier' material if slippage is a persistent issue.

Traction seems poor on wet surfaces

The rubber outsole provides good traction on dry surfaces. Exercise caution when walking on wet or slippery conditions, as with any footwear.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Gently clean the mesh and leather surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
