FAQs
What age group are these trainers for?
These trainers are specifically designed for kids, with this particular model fitting a UK size 10 foot.
How do I clean the ASICS Gel-Contend 9 Trainers?
Wipe the uppers with a damp cloth. Clean the sole with water and mild soap. Allow them to air dry completely and do not machine wash or tumble dry.
Can these be used for competitive running?
The ASICS Gel-Contend 9 are excellent for general training and everyday running. For high-performance competitive events, specialized racing shoes might be more suitable.
What does the 'touch 'n' close' feature do?
The 'touch 'n' close' refers to the Velcro strap, which provides an easy and secure way for children to fasten and unfasten their shoes quickly.
Are these trainers suitable for all types of weather?
These trainers are best suited for dry to mildly damp conditions. For heavy rain or snow, waterproof footwear would be more appropriate.
What is the primary benefit of the shock-absorbing insole?
The shock-absorbing insole provides enhanced comfort by reducing the impact on a child's feet during activities like running and jumping.
How can I ensure the best fit?
Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe. The heel should not slip excessively, and the midfoot should feel snug but not constricting.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and the touch 'n' close strap. If the tightness persists, double-check that the correct size has been selected. Ensure the tongue is properly aligned.
Traction seems reduced on certain surfaces
Clean the rubber outsole thoroughly to remove any embedded dirt or debris. Ensure the shoes are not excessively worn down.
Discomfort during activities
Verify the fit is correct. Ensure the sock liner is properly seated. For extended activities, consider the specific demands of the sport, as these are designed for general training.
