The ASICS GEL-1130 Sneaker: The Essence of the 2000s Reimagined for the CityThe result of decades of constant evolution in design, the
ASICS GEL-1130 stands as a vibrant homage to the ninth iteration of the famous GEL-1000 series. Largely inspired by the iconic structure of the GEL-KAYANO 14, this 2008 stability running shoe adopts its technical and dynamic look. Now completely reinvented for city streets, it retains its retro authenticity while integrating contemporary textures to adapt perfectly to the codes of today's streetwear wardrobe.
GEL Cushioning Technology and Proven TRUSSTIC Stability
Designed to offer plush comfort throughout busy days, the GEL-1130 relies on ASICS' technical expertise:
-
GEL Technology Cushioning in the Heel: Ideally integrated under the heel, ASICS’ famous GEL capsule ensures excellent shock absorption upon ground impact, guaranteeing lasting walking comfort.
-
-
TRUSSTIC Support System: This iconic stabilizer, which helped late 2000s runners improve their performance, is retained under the arch. It limits sole twisting and secures every step.
Traditional Materials and Modern Suede Finishes
A textured design that combines breathability with eco-conscious commitment:
-
Mesh Upper and Suede Overlays: Its original silhouette is modernized through the use of quality suede overlays, elegantly contrasting with breathable mesh underlays. This mix of materials ensures optimal foot ventilation and a very trendy visual appeal.
-
Eco-Conscious Sockliner (Dope Dyed): The sockliner features dope dyeing technology. This clean manufacturing process helps reduce total water consumption by approximately 33% and carbon emissions by nearly 45% compared to conventional methods.
