FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?
The Gel-Contend 10 is built for daily activities and light exercise; while comfortable, they are better suited for walking or light fitness than marathon training.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
It is not recommended. Machine washing can damage the adhesive and cushioning properties. Use a hand-cleaning method instead.
What should I do if the shoe feels tight?
Ensure your laces are adjusted for your foot volume. If the tightness persists, verify that you are wearing the correct UK size.
Can I replace the original insoles with my own orthotics?
Yes, the Gel-Contend 10 features a removable insole specifically to accommodate custom inserts.
Are these shoes good for gym workouts?
Yes, their stable rubber outsole and lightweight construction make them a great choice for general gym movements and treadmill use.
Troubleshooting
Insole becomes uncomfortable after heavy use
Remove the insole, clean it with mild soap, and ensure it is fully dry before re-inserting or replace with a new insert.
Accumulated dirt on the synthetic upper
Gently wipe with a soft cloth dipped in a mixture of water and gentle detergent, then air dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your ASICS Gel-Contend 10 trainers, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap for the synthetic upper.
- Insole Care: Periodically remove the insoles to air them out, which helps manage moisture and odor.
- Drying: Always air dry at room temperature. Never place trainers in the dryer, as heat can warp the rubber outsole and damage the GEL cushioning.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation.
