In 2023, Asics started the year with a bang by releasing several notable releases, including a highlight, the reintroduction of the GEL-1130, inspired by the GEL-KAYANO-14. This classic sneaker has now captured the hearts of sneakerlovers once again, and for a good reason.
Originally from 2008, the GEL-1130 takes inspiration from the GEL-KAYANO-14. Both share similar features such as Mesh material, synthetic leather, and, of course, metallic overlays. With its eye-catching retro look due to the exposed-mesh and neutral colors, they are easy to style.
The silver overlays give a futuristic look, a trend you see a lot these days with different brands and sneakers. Look at the New Balance 1906R for example, it shares similar feautues as well. When we talk about comfort, the GEL-1130 and the New Balance 1906R also match in that, so if you are looking for a cheaper option, the GEL-1130 is a good alternative.
The GEL-1130 white black is a typical '00 runner, a lightweight sneaker. And for those who want a little more luxury, we also have it in suede. The suede variant retains that light weight, but adds that extra bit of luxury. So it's no coincidence that the 1130 was one of the most popular models of 2023, including among the employees of BijSMAAK.
