FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The ASICS Gel-1130 GS "Lavender Glow" are designed primarily for lifestyle and everyday wear, with cushioning suitable for light activities. For intense running or athletic training, specialized running shoes are recommended.

How do I clean the pink "Lavender Glow" color?

Use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For tougher stains, a mild soap solution and a soft brush can be used. Always air dry and avoid harsh chemicals to preserve the color.

What does 'GS' stand for?

'GS' typically stands for Grade School, indicating these shoes are designed for children.

Can these shoes be worn by boys and girls?

Yes, the design is unisex, making them suitable for children of any gender.

What is the benefit of the GEL cushioning?

The GEL cushioning system absorbs shock effectively, providing comfort and helping to protect joints from impact during walking and standing.

Are the materials eco-friendly?

Yes, this product is made partially from recycled materials, contributing to a more sustainable approach.

What kind of socks are best to wear with these trainers?

Standard athletic or everyday socks work well. Consider thinner socks if the shoes feel slightly snug to ensure maximum comfort.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring they are snug but not constricting. If still uncomfortable, check if the size is correct or consider wearing thinner socks.

GEL cushioning feels less effective over time

The cushioning is designed for sustained comfort. If the shoes feel worn, it may indicate significant usage. Ensure the shoes are clean and dry, as moisture can sometimes affect material performance temporarily.

Pink color appears faded

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean gently with a damp cloth as per care instructions. For significant fading, consider using a color-restoring product suitable for synthetic materials, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Sole losing grip

Clean the sole thoroughly with a damp cloth and brush to remove accumulated dirt or debris that may be reducing traction. Ensure the surface being walked on is not excessively slippery.

Cons

  • May not be suitable for high-impact or professional athletic training.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure the correct size is chosen for optimal comfort and fit.

Compatibility: Suitable for unisex kids. The classic lace-up design ensures compatibility with standard sock types.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the synthetic leather and textile portions with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap diluted in water and a soft brush or cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Leather Accents: Clean leather accents with a specialized leather cleaner or a slightly damp cloth. Condition the leather periodically if needed to maintain its suppleness.
  3. Sole: Clean the rubber sole with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Ensure the sole is dry before storage.
  4. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat or sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, ideally in a shoe box or bag to protect them from dust and damage.
