FAQs

Is the Asics Contend 10 good for overpronation?

This model is designed for neutral runners. If you require significant arch support or stability, you may need a model specifically categorized for motion control.

Can I use these for gym workouts?

Yes, their stable platform makes them suitable for treadmill sessions and general light gym work, though they are primarily optimized for forward running motion.

How often should I replace these trainers?

Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on the intensity of your use and the wear on the outsole.

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, the Contend 10 is made with breathable mesh, which allows for airflow but does not provide protection against water or rain.

What is the primary surface type for this shoe?

These trainers are best suited for paved surfaces, roads, and smooth, hard-packed park paths.

Troubleshooting

Foot feels loose inside the shoe

Try using the extra eyelet at the top of the lacing system for a runner's loop, which secures the heel better.

Outer sole showing premature wear

Ensure you are using the shoes primarily on flat surfaces like roads or pavement rather than abrasive off-road terrain.

Discomfort during long runs

Check that the laces are not tied too tightly across the top of the foot, which can restrict blood flow and cause arch pain.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best fit, select your standard UK sizing, ensuring about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe. When the shoes become dirty, avoid machine washing or drying, which can damage the cushioning materials and adhesives. Instead, wipe the upper down with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Remove the insoles if they become damp and allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the materials from warping.
