FAQs

What age group are these trainers for?

These ASICS Gel-Contend 9 trainers are specifically designed for kids.

What is the main benefit of the GEL technology?

The GEL technology is designed to provide excellent shock absorption, reducing impact on the feet and joints during movement.

Are these suitable for competitive running?

The Gel-Contend 9 is best suited for everyday wear and light athletic activities. For competitive running, specialized running shoes would offer more advanced features.

How should I clean the shoes?

Clean the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat.

What is the primary material of the outsole?

The outsole is made of durable rubber, designed for optimal traction.

Can these shoes be used in wet weather?

The rubber outsole provides traction, but caution is advised on very wet surfaces. They are not waterproof.

What does the 'Blue/Yellow' colour family refer to?

This refers to the primary blue colour of the shoe with secondary yellow accents.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.

Ensure the correct UK size was selected. Loosen the laces and have the child try them on with appropriate socks. Check if the foot has grown beyond the purchased size.

Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces.

Wipe the outsole clean of any debris. While designed for traction, performance on very wet surfaces can vary. Use caution in such conditions.

Soles are showing signs of wear.

Inspect the outsole for significant wear patterns. For everyday use, normal wear is expected. If wear is excessive and rapid, check for activities beyond the shoe's intended purpose.
