Product Information
Full details
The ASICS Contend 10 is an ideal everyday neutral road running shoe for active adults seeking reliable support and impact protection during daily fitness routines. Whether you are running on pavement or light trails, these trainers offer a smooth, cushioned ride that promotes a natural gait; however, users should note that they are specifically engineered for neutral runners, meaning they may lack the advanced stability features required for those with severe overpronation.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for trail running?
They are designed for road and light park trails, providing enough grip for tarmac and groomed paths, but they are not intended for technical, rocky, or steep mountainous terrain.
How often should I replace my Contend 10 trainers?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and body weight, to ensure the cushioning remains effective.
Can I remove the insoles to use my own custom orthotics?
Yes, the insoles are removable, making them compatible with most standard aftermarket orthotic inserts.
Are these true to size?
ASICS generally fit true to size, but since running feet can swell, many users prefer to wear a half-size larger than their casual dress shoe.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, they feature a breathable mesh upper designed to keep your feet cool, which means they are not waterproof.
What type of runner is this shoe built for?
This is a neutral running shoe designed for runners who do not require extra medial support for overpronation.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slipping or instability within the shoe
Try the 'runner's loop' lacing technique to secure the heel more effectively and ensure the laces are tightened evenly.
Accumulated dirt on the mesh upper
Allow the mud to dry completely and gently brush it off; avoid soaking the shoe in water as it can damage the breathable mesh.
Uncomfortable pressure on the top of the foot
Loosen the lacing over the arch area to provide more room for foot swelling that occurs naturally during runs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your ASICS Contend 10 trainers maintain their performance, start by ensuring the laces are adjusted to your preferred tension before your first run to allow the upper to conform to your foot shape. If you use custom orthotics, the internal footbed is typically removable to accommodate your specific arch support needs. For care, do not machine wash your trainers, as this can degrade the foam and adhesive. Instead, clean the exterior with a soft brush or a damp cloth to remove mud and debris. If the interior gets wet, remove the liners and let the shoes air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the materials.
