FAQs

Are the ASICS Gel-1130 trainers suitable for running marathons?

While the GEL technology provides cushioning, the Gel-1130 is primarily designed for versatile use including sports and everyday wear, not specifically for high-performance marathon running. For marathon-level training, dedicated running shoes with advanced stability and cushioning features may be more appropriate.

How much recycled material is used in the ASICS Gel-1130?

The ASICS Gel-1130 trainers are crafted with over 20% recycled materials, contributing to a more sustainable product.

Can I wear these trainers in wet conditions?

The leather upper offers some resistance to light moisture, but these trainers are not waterproof. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or wet surfaces to protect the material and maintain comfort.

What is the primary benefit of the TRUSSIC support?

The TRUSSIC support arch enhances midfoot stability, helping to control pronation and provide a more stable walking or running experience.

How do I choose the correct size?

Refer to the size chart provided by ASICS and measure your foot length accurately. Ensure a comfortable fit without being too tight or too loose, especially considering the leather material will mold slightly over time.

Are these trainers machine washable?

No, these trainers are not machine washable. Cleaning should be done by hand using a damp cloth and appropriate leather care products if necessary.

What is the main difference between the Gel-1130 and other ASICS models?

The Gel-1130 distinguishes itself by celebrating design evolution with a focus on sustainability, incorporating over 20% recycled materials while retaining key technologies like GEL cushioning and TRUSSIC support for a balanced blend of comfort, stability, and modern style.

Troubleshooting

Reduced cushioning over time.

While GEL technology is durable, its cushioning properties may decrease with extensive use. Consider replacing the shoes if significant loss of comfort is experienced after prolonged periods of wear.

Leather creasing.

Creasing is a natural characteristic of leather. To minimize appearance, ensure proper fit and avoid over-tightening laces. Using a shoe tree can help maintain shape when not in use.

Slight odor after use.

Allow shoes to air out completely between wears. Use odor-absorbing insoles or baking soda sprinkled inside the shoes overnight to neutralize smells. Ensure proper cleaning as per care instructions.
