FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for athletic training?

The ASICS Contend 9 PS trainers are designed for general wear and light sports. For intensive athletic training, specific performance footwear may be more appropriate.

How do I clean the 'other materials' upper?

Wipe with a damp cloth for light cleaning. For more stubborn dirt, use a mild soap and water solution with a soft brush, then rinse lightly and air dry.

What is the benefit of the touch 'n' close strap?

The touch 'n' close strap, combined with laces, provides an extra layer of security and adjustability, making it easy for children to get a snug fit.

Can these shoes be machine washed?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the materials and construction. Hand washing with mild soap and water is preferred.

How do I know if I've chosen the right size?

Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between the child's longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The heel should not slip excessively.

Are these shoes waterproof?

These trainers are not designed to be waterproof. They offer some protection against light moisture but are not suitable for prolonged exposure to wet conditions.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and adjust the touch 'n' close strap. Ensure the correct size is being worn; refer to sizing guides if unsure.

Traction seems reduced

Clean the rubber sole to remove any dirt or debris that may be affecting grip. Check for excessive wear on the sole.

Inner lining feels rough

Ensure socks are worn to provide a smooth barrier. If the roughness persists, inspect for any loose stitching or debris inside the shoe.

Fastening strap losing stickiness

Clean the touch 'n' close strap with a slightly damp cloth and allow it to dry completely. Avoid using harsh cleaning agents.
