Product Information
Full details
The ASICS Contend 10 is an ideal everyday neutral road running shoe for active adults who need a reliable, comfortable trainer for daily jogs, lunchtime loops, and weekend runs. It provides essential cushioning to absorb impact on hard surfaces and a secure, supportive fit to keep you moving comfortably; however, it is specifically optimized for neutral runners and may not provide enough stability for those with severe overpronation.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for long-distance marathons?
While the Contend 10 is durable and comfortable, it is designed primarily as an everyday neutral trainer for moderate distances.
Can I use these for trail running?
They feature a grippy outsole that performs well on light trails and tarmac, but they are not intended for rugged, technical mountain terrain.
How do I ensure the right fit?
Aim for about a thumbnail's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to allow for foot swelling during exercise.
Are these machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the structural integrity and cushioning properties of the trainers. Clean them by hand with a damp cloth.
Do these shoes provide arch support?
The Contend 10 is built as a neutral shoe. If you require significant arch support, you may need to add an aftermarket insole.
Troubleshooting
Feeling tightness around the midfoot
Try adjusting the lacing pattern to a 'window' or 'gap' lacing technique to relieve pressure on the top of the foot.
Build-up of debris in the tread
Use a dull plastic tool or a soft-bristled brush to clear the outsole grooves after running on trails.
Inner lining showing premature wear
Ensure your shoes are fully untied before removing them; pulling your foot out while the shoe is tied causes excessive friction against the heel counter.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your ASICS Contend 10 trainers, ensure you have selected your correct UK size, as the supportive upper is designed for a snug fit. If you use custom orthotics, ensure you remove the factory-provided sockliner before inserting your own. For care, keep the shoes away from extreme heat sources like radiators, which can damage the adhesive and cushioning foams. To clean, remove loose dirt with a soft brush and wipe the surface with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid machine washing or drying, as these processes can distort the shoe's structure and performance materials.
