Asics Gel-1130 'Irvine Black'
The ASICS Gel-1130 originally launched as a performance running shoe, built around ASICS' GEL cushioning technology and TRUSSTIC support system. It has since been revived as a lifestyle silhouette, becoming one of the most popular models in the retro running revival alongside the Gel-Kayano 14 and Gel-NYC. The Gel-1130's sleeker, lower-profile design compared to the chunkier Gel-NYC has made it a favourite for anyone who wants a technical runner that's less bulky but still carries genuine ASICS heritage.
The Irvine Black colourway features a breathable mesh upper with black overlays and subtle Irvine green tones that give the shoe a modern, earthy edge. The blend of green and black keeps the classic ASICS silhouette feeling fresh while maintaining a dark, versatile palette. ASICS tiger stripes and branding complete the look. It's a colourway that reads as a dark, stealthy runner from a distance but rewards closer inspection with its green detailing.
ASICS GEL cushioning for responsive impact absorption and all-day comfort. Lightweight EVA midsole for a cushioned, supportive ride. Breathable mesh upper with black overlays and Irvine green accents for a modern, earthy aesthetic. TRUSSTIC support system (TPU shank) in the outsole for stability and energy efficiency. Classic ASICS tiger stripes and heritage branding throughout.
Fit: Runs true to size. We recommend ordering your usual UK size.

The ASICS Gel-1130 Irvine Black is ideal for anyone who wants a dark retro runner with a subtle twist. The Irvine green accents add just enough personality to set it apart from a standard all-black shoe, while keeping the overall look stealthy and versatile. The GEL cushioning and TRUSSTIC support deliver genuine comfort and stability for daily wear.
The Irvine Black Gel-1130 works best with dark, earthy outfits. The subtle green tones pair naturally with olive cargo pants, dark denim, black joggers, or forest green layers. It's a shoe that reads as black from a distance but reveals the Irvine green accents up close, adding character without being loud.
The ASICS Gel-1130 sits alongside the Gel-Kayano 14 and Gel-NYC as part of ASICS' retro running revival. The Irvine Black offers a unique colour combination that sits between the fully tonal Graphite Grey Gravel and the more polished Steel Grey Black. The green accents give it an earthy, outdoor-influenced feel. Compared to the Gel-NYC in dark colourways, the Gel-1130 has a sleeker, lower-profile silhouette with less visual bulk. Against dark Nike P-6000 colourways, the Gel-1130 offers visible GEL technology and the TRUSSTIC support system.
Yes, the ASICS Gel-1130 runs true to size. We recommend ordering your usual UK size. The breathable mesh upper with synthetic overlays provides a comfortable, supportive fit.
The Gel-1130 features ASICS' signature GEL technology for impact absorption, paired with a lightweight EVA midsole for responsive comfort. The TRUSSTIC support system (a TPU shank in the outsole) enhances stability and efficient energy transfer during movement.

We recommend spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing as this can damage the synthetic overlays and GEL cushioning. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
