ASICS GEL-1130 Black Cream

The ASICS GEL-1130 arrives in "Black Cream", a colourway that keeps a heritage runner grounded. Black leads across the breathable mesh upper, while cream picks out the synthetic leather overlays for a muted, retro contrast. At least 20% of that overlay material comes from recycled content, and the solution dyed sockliner cuts water use by around 33% against conventional dyeing.

GEL technology in the heel absorbs impact underfoot, while the TRUSSTIC support system steadies the ride. Both nod to the model's stability running origins as the ninth iteration of the GEL-1000 series. Design cues trace back to the GEL-KAYANO 14, though the trainer now sits in sportstyle territory. The restrained palette pairs with straight leg jeans as readily as it works with relaxed sportswear. One to consider for a daily rotation.
