FAQs
What type of activities are these ASICS GEL-1130 shoes best for?
These shoes are ideal for everyday casual wear, light walking, city exploration, and pairing with various casual outfits for a sporty-retro look. While they feature running shoe technology, they are primarily designed for comfort and style rather than high-performance athletic training.
How do I clean my ASICS GEL-1130 in Cream Reddish Brown?
Gently wipe the synthetic leather and mesh upper with a soft, damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. For the rubber sole, use a brush and mild soap solution. Always air dry completely away from direct heat or sunlight.
What is `GEL technology`?
`GEL technology` is ASICS' proprietary cushioning system, typically placed in the heel (as in this model) and/or forefoot. It's designed to absorb shock during impact, providing a softer landing and improving overall comfort.
What is the `TRUSSTIC Support System`?
The `TRUSSTIC Support System` is a lightweight component positioned under the arch of the shoe. Its purpose is to provide enhanced stability, reduce the weight of the sole unit, and help control torsional rigidity, preventing the shoe from twisting excessively during movement.
Are these shoes environmentally friendly?
Yes, ASICS has incorporated sustainable practices in the GEL-1130. The main upper is made from over 20% recycled materials, and the sockliner is dope-dyed, which significantly reduces water consumption and carbon dioxide emissions during its production process.
Is this shoe suitable for actual running?
While the ASICS GEL-1130 draws inspiration and technology from ASICS' running heritage, it is positioned as a lifestyle shoe. It offers comfort and support for light, everyday activities, but if you're looking for a shoe for regular, high-performance running, ASICS offers other models specifically engineered for that purpose.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
Ensure you have the correct size. Try adjusting the lacing pattern to better accommodate your foot shape. If newly purchased, allow a brief break-in period for the materials to conform to your foot.
Squeaking sound when walking.
This can sometimes be caused by moisture trapped inside the shoe or between the sockliner and the sole. Remove the sockliners and allow them to air dry thoroughly. If the issue persists, a small amount of baby powder under the sockliner might help.
General dirt and scuffs on the upper.
Follow the 'Cleaning the Upper' instructions in the Care section. Regular gentle cleaning helps maintain the shoe's appearance and prolong its life.
Foot fatigue or discomfort after long wear.
While cushioned, these are not specific performance shoes. Ensure you're wearing appropriate socks. If discomfort persists, consider if the shoe's support level is adequate for your specific foot type or activity needs. Info needed: Consult a podiatrist if discomfort is severe or ongoing.
Laces constantly untie.
Try different lacing techniques, such as a surgeon's knot (double loop) or a 'secure knot'. Consider replacing laces if they are old or worn.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: For mesh and synthetic leather, gently wipe down the surface with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher spots, use a small amount of mild soap mixed with water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes, which can damage the materials.
- Cleaning the Sole: Use a brush (an old toothbrush works well) and a mild soap solution to clean dirt and debris from the rubber outsole.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight, radiators, or tumble dryers, as excessive heat can deform materials and adhesives.
- Odor Control: If odors develop, remove the sockliners and allow them to air dry. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Stuffing them with crumpled paper can help maintain their shape.
- Avoid Submerging: Do not submerge the entire shoe in water, as this can affect the integrity of the materials and cushioning.
