FAQs
Are the GEL-1130 trainers suitable for distance running?
While the GEL-1130 is derived from a 2008 stability running shoe, it is currently positioned more as a lifestyle and casual walking shoe. It is best suited for daily activity rather than competitive long-distance running.
What is the purpose of the TRUSSTIC system?
The TRUSSTIC support system is a bridge under the arch that improves stability by preventing the shoe from twisting during your stride.
How do I ensure the right fit?
These trainers follow standard UK sizing. We recommend wearing the type of socks you plan to use daily when trying them on to ensure adequate room in the toe box.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash your ASICS trainers as the heat and agitation can damage the leather and the integrity of the adhesive bonding.
What materials are used in the upper?
The upper consists of a combination of breathable mesh inserts and durable leather, with at least 20% recycled material content.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the leather upper
Use shoe trees when not wearing to help the material maintain its shape and minimize deep-set creases.
Visible dirt trapped in mesh
Use a dry, soft brush to dislodge particles; if necessary, use a mild soap solution and a toothbrush to gently scrub the area.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your GEL-1130 trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: Wear the shoes for shorter durations during the first week to allow the leather and support structures to contour to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove loose dirt from the mesh panels. For leather sections, wipe gently with a slightly damp cloth; avoid total submersion in water.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather cracking and material discoloration.
- Insole Care: If the insoles become damp from perspiration, remove them after use to allow for proper air drying.
