Product Information

Full details

The Asics Gel-1130 "White Sage Frost" trainers are designed for adults seeking a blend of retro running shoe aesthetics with modern, street-ready comfort and style. Their key benefit lies in the combination of supportive technology for urban wear and an eco-conscious manufacturing process. A potential caveat is that while inspired by running shoes, they are best suited for lifestyle and walking rather than high-intensity athletic performance.

FAQs

Are the Asics Gel-1130 suitable for running?

While inspired by running shoe design, the Gel-1130 is primarily intended for lifestyle wear, walking, and everyday comfort. For dedicated running, Asics offers specific performance running shoe models.

How do the eco-friendly features work?

The insole is produced using a 'solution dyeing' method. This process significantly reduces water consumption (by approx. 33%) and CO2 emissions (by approx. 45%) compared to traditional dyeing methods.

What is the benefit of the TRUSSTIC™ support system?

The TRUSSTIC™ support system is designed to enhance stability by controlling foot pronation and providing midfoot structural integrity, helping to guide the foot through a more efficient stride.

How do I determine my correct UK shoe size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by Asics or the retailer. Generally, measure your foot length from heel to toe and compare it to the corresponding UK size. This model is available in various UK sizes, including 11.5.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. The materials, especially the mesh and synthetic overlays, can be damaged. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method.

What is the difference between this and the GEL-KAYANO™ 14?

The Gel-1130 takes design inspiration from the GEL-KAYANO™ 14, incorporating similar retro aesthetics and materials. However, the Gel-1130 is adapted for modern lifestyle wear with specific comfort and support features tailored for urban conditions.

Troubleshooting

Slightly stiff during first wears

This is normal for shoes with supportive structures. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time to allow the materials to break in and conform to your foot shape.

Foot feels unstable during specific movements

Ensure the laces are tied appropriately for a snug fit. The TRUSSTIC™ system provides support, but proper lacing is crucial for overall stability. If instability persists, consider if the shoe's support features align with your specific biomechanical needs.

Mesh upper appears dirty

Use a soft brush or cloth with a mild soap and water solution to gently clean the mesh. Blot with a clean, damp cloth and allow to air dry. Avoid machine washing or drying.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Gently clean the textile mesh and synthetic leather with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
