FAQs
What type of activities are the ASICS Gel-Contend 9 best suited for?
These trainers are ideal for everyday wear, walking, light jogging, gym workouts, and general fitness activities. They prioritize comfort and cushioning for general use.
How do I determine the right size?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by ASICS and measure your foot. Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe.
Can these shoes be machine washed?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, cushioning, and structure of the shoe. Hand wash with mild soap and water and air dry.
Are these shoes suitable for pronation?
The Gel-Contend 9 offers standard support. For specific pronation needs (overpronation or supination), consult with a footwear specialist to determine if this model meets your requirements.
How durable is the outsole?
The durable rubber outsole is designed for regular wear and provides good traction. However, excessive wear on abrasive surfaces will naturally reduce its lifespan.
What is the main benefit of the GEL technology?
The GEL technology is strategically placed in the midsole to absorb shock effectively, providing enhanced cushioning and reducing impact during wear, especially on hard surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have the correct size. For a slightly tighter fit, try lacing them more securely. For a looser feel, adjust the lacing pattern.
Traction is reduced on wet surfaces
Clean the outsole to remove any debris that might be hindering grip. Be cautious when walking on very wet surfaces as even specialized outsoles have limits.
Cushioning feels insufficient for long runs
The Gel-Contend 9 is designed for general training. For extended or intense running, consider a model with more advanced cushioning and support features.
