FAQs

What age group are the ASICS GEL-1130 PS trainers designed for?

These trainers are designed for pre-school children, catering to their specific foot development and activity needs.

How do the GEL technology and the rubber outsole contribute to the shoe's performance?

The GEL technology in the heel provides excellent shock absorption, cushioning impacts during movement. The durable rubber outsole offers reliable traction and stability on a variety of surfaces, supporting active play.

Are these shoes suitable for serious athletic training or just casual wear?

The GEL-1130 PS trainers are designed primarily for everyday wear, stability, and comfort during general activities like school, playground play, and light jogging. They are not intended for specialized, high-performance athletic training.

How should I clean and care for these trainers?

Clean the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. For stains, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by rinsing with a damp cloth. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents.

What is the key difference between these and other ASICS running shoes?

The GEL-1130 PS trainers are a retro-inspired stability shoe designed for children's everyday comfort and support. Other ASICS running shoes may offer more advanced features, lighter weights, or specific technologies tailored for competitive running or different types of sports.

What does 'PS' stand for in GEL-1130 PS?

'PS' typically stands for 'Pre-School', indicating that this specific model is designed for younger children in that age category.

Can these shoes be worn by boys and girls?

Yes, these trainers are designed with a unisex fit and style, making them suitable for children of all genders.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have selected the correct size based on your child's foot measurement. If the shoe is the correct size but still uncomfortable, check the lacing and adjust for a snug but not overly tight fit. Consider the possibility that the shoe's specific fit might not suit your child's foot shape.

Traction seems poor on certain surfaces

The rubber outsole is designed for optimal traction, but performance can vary on extremely smooth or wet surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean and free of debris. For significantly slippery conditions, additional caution may be needed.

Materials appear to be wearing quickly

These trainers are designed for active children and regular use. Inspect the shoes for excessive wear that indicates a defect. If the wear seems normal for the level of activity, ensure the child is not using them for activities beyond their intended use (e.g., rough terrain, high-impact sports).

Child's feet feel warm or sweaty

The breathable design helps manage moisture, but prolonged high activity can still lead to warm feet. Ensure the socks worn are also breathable. If persistent, check that the shoes are not too tight, which can restrict airflow, and that they are clean inside.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust from the exterior. For tougher stains, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
  2. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as these can damage the materials.
  3. Inserts: If the insoles are removable, they can be gently hand-washed and air-dried separately. Ensure the interior of the shoe is also dry before reinserting.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
