FAQs
What type of sport is this shoe best suited for?
The ASICS Gel-Contend 9 is designed for running and general sports activities, offering comfort and support for active children.
How do I ensure the best fit for my child?
Use the lace and touch 'n' close fastening system to achieve a secure and adjustable fit. Ensure there is a little room for growth at the toe, but not so much that the foot slides excessively.
Can these shoes be machine washed?
No, machine washing is not recommended. Cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method to maintain the integrity of the materials.
What is the primary benefit of the cushioning system?
The shock-absorbing insole provides greater comfort by reducing impact on the feet and joints during running and high-impact activities.
Are these shoes suitable for very young children?
Yes, the combination of laces and a touch 'n' close strap makes them easy for children to put on and take off securely, suitable for various ages within the kids' range.
What materials are the shoes made of?
The uppers are made of 100% other materials, the lining is 100% textile, the cushioning is 100% textile, and the sole is 100% rubber.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty fastening Velcro strap
Ensure the tongue of the shoe is properly aligned and not bunched up. Check that the Velcro strap is clean and free from debris that might prevent a secure closure.
Shoe feels too tight or loose
Adjust the laces for a tighter or looser fit. Ensure the Velcro strap is fastened appropriately to complement the lacing system. Try wearing different sock thicknesses.
Traction seems poor
Clean the rubber outsole as dirt and debris can accumulate and reduce grip. Check for excessive wear on the sole pattern.
