Product Information
Full details
Designed for adults who appreciate a blend of retro aesthetics and modern comfort, the ASICS GEL-1130 trainers offer a stylish yet supportive option for everyday wear. Rooted in early 2000s running heritage, their primary benefit lies in providing cushioned comfort and stability for casual, urban use. A potential caveat is that despite their running-inspired design, they are best suited for lifestyle activities rather than high-performance athletic training.

FAQs
Are ASICS GEL-1130 trainers suitable for running?
While rooted in running heritage and featuring running-inspired technology like GEL cushioning and a TRUSSTIC system, these trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual everyday wear, not high-performance or intense athletic running.
How do I clean my ASICS GEL-1130 trainers?
Gently wipe the mesh and synthetic overlays with a soft, damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Clean the outsole with a brush and soapy water. Always air dry your trainers away from direct heat.
What is GEL technology in these trainers?
GEL technology is a cushioning system strategically placed in the heel to provide superior shock absorption and lasting comfort, especially beneficial for everyday walking and urban exploration.
What is the TRUSSTIC Support System?
The TRUSSTIC Support System is a lightweight component integrated into the sole that provides enhanced stability and helps to prevent the shoe from twisting excessively during movement, offering a more supportive ride.
What materials are the ASICS GEL-1130 trainers made from?
They feature a breathable mesh upper for ventilation, reinforced with synthetic overlays for structural support and style, and a durable rubber outsole for traction.
Are these trainers waterproof?
Due to their breathable mesh upper, these trainers are not fully waterproof. They offer some protection against light moisture but are not recommended for heavy rain or wet conditions.
Are these shoes true to size?
ASICS generally offers consistent sizing. However, it's always recommended to consult the official ASICS size chart or try them on to ensure the best fit for your feet, as individual foot shapes vary.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel uncomfortable or too tight/loose.
Ensure your laces are properly adjusted. Try re-lacing them for a customized fit. If discomfort persists, verify your size against the ASICS official size guide, as fit can vary.
Squeaking noise while walking.
This can sometimes be caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's interior, or by moisture. Try removing the insoles and sprinkling a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch underneath them. Ensure shoes are thoroughly dry after cleaning or exposure to moisture.
Trainers appear dirty or stained.
Follow the cleaning instructions in the 'Care & Maintenance' section. For stubborn stains, a gentle shoe cleaner specifically designed for mesh and synthetic materials may be used, always testing on an inconspicuous area first.
Reduced cushioning comfort over time.
The GEL cushioning is designed for durability, but consistent heavy use can eventually lead to compression. While not a defect, ensure you are using the shoes for their intended lifestyle purpose to maximize their lifespan. Regularly removing and airing out insoles can also help maintain freshness.

Care & Maintenance
Proper care will keep your ASICS GEL-1130 Trainers looking and feeling great.
- Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the breathable mesh and synthetic overlays with a soft, damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap (e.g., dish soap diluted in water). Avoid abrasive cleaners or brushes that could damage the material.
- Cleaning the Outsole: Use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) and mild soapy water to remove dirt and debris from the rubber outsole.
- Drying: Always air dry your trainers at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or artificial heat sources (like radiators). Stuffing them with paper towels can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid storing in damp environments.
- Protection: Consider using a shoe protector spray designed for synthetic and mesh materials to help repel water and stains, especially on the lighter-colored sections.
