ASICS Gel-1130 'White Shark Skin'

ASICS Gel-1130 'White Shark Skin'

Texture-forward and quietly predatory. The ASICS Gel-1130 'White Shark Skin' takes its name from the iridescent quality of the synthetic leather overlays — when light catches them, they produce the same silvery sheen associated with shark skin, giving the shoe a distinctive open-ocean quality that sets it apart from the rest of the Gel-1130 lineup. The white base amplifies the effect, making every angle of the upper catch differently depending on the light.

Drawing design cues from the GEL-KAYANO 14 and the broader GEL-1000 catalog, the Gel-1130 White Shark Skin pairs a breathable mesh upper with structured synthetic leather overlays — a material update over earlier genuine leather builds that delivers a more contemporary finish. Silver accent splashes reinforce the oceanic aesthetic throughout. GEL cushioning in the heel handles impact on hard surfaces, while the TRUSSTIC support system — a hallmark of ASICS’ 2000s running archive — maintains underfoot stability across extended wear.
