FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for high-arch feet?

The Contend 10 offers neutral cushioning suitable for many foot types, though those with specific orthotic needs should consult a podiatrist.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, it is recommended to clean them by hand to preserve the integrity of the foam and GEL materials.

Is the mesh upper waterproof?

The mesh upper is designed for breathability rather than water resistance, so they are best suited for dry conditions.

How often should I replace these shoes?

It is generally recommended to replace running shoes every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running style and surface conditions.

Do these shoes run true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing for adult females.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight across the midfoot

Try a different lacing technique, such as skipping the eyelet over the tightest area to relieve pressure.

Insole slipping during a run

Ensure the insole is correctly seated flat within the shoe; if it continues to slip, check if the size is correct.

Visible dirt on mesh upper

Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dried mud or dust before wiping with a damp cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your ASICS Contend 10 trainers maintain their performance, follow these guidelines:

  • Sizing: Ensure you are wearing the correct size to prevent blister formation and maintain proper arch alignment.
  • Lacing: Use the eyelets to customize your lockdown; a runner's loop can be used if you require a tighter fit around the ankle.
  • Cleaning: Wipe away dirt with a damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh detergents, as this can degrade the foam and adhesive materials.
  • Drying: Air dry only. Keep away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the materials.
