FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the GEL™ Technology Cushioning?

The GEL™ Technology Cushioning provides excellent shock absorption, reducing impact on your feet and joints during wear.

How does the TRUSSTIC™ Support System help?

The TRUSSTIC™ Support System stabilizes the midfoot, preventing excessive twisting and enhancing overall support and efficiency of movement.

Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?

While the GEL-1130 offers good cushioning, they are primarily designed for everyday wear and light athletic activities. For marathon running, specialized running shoes offering advanced support and cushioning are recommended.

How should I clean the mesh parts of the trainers?

Gently use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to clean the mesh. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing, as this can damage the materials.

What is the main difference between the GEL-1130 and other ASICS running shoes?

The GEL-1130 draws heavily from heritage running shoe designs and focuses on a blend of lifestyle comfort and retro style, whereas dedicated ASICS running shoes often feature more advanced, sport-specific technologies for performance.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

The mesh upper offers some breathability but is not waterproof. They are best suited for dry to moderately damp conditions. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain may soak the shoes.

What does the 'Cream / Carrier Grey' colorway refer to?

This refers to the primary color (Cream) and the secondary accent color (Carrier Grey) used in the design of the trainers.

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels incorrect

Try the trainers with the socks you typically wear. If still uncomfortable, consider the fit of different sizes, as shoe sizes can vary slightly between models and brands.

Reduced cushioning over time

The GEL™ cushioning is designed for longevity, but like all footwear, its effectiveness can decrease with extensive use. For very heavy use, consider replacement after significant mileage.

Creasing on leather overlays

Some creasing is natural with leather. To minimize, ensure proper fit and avoid over-tightening laces. Gentle conditioning can help maintain leather appearance.

Discoloration of materials

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading. Clean regularly according to care instructions to maintain color.
