FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?

The ASICS Gel-Contend 9 are designed for light training and everyday use. For marathon running, consider models with more advanced cushioning and support features specifically engineered for long-distance running.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Your toes should have about a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the front of the shoe. The heel should feel secure without slipping, and the midfoot should be snug but not constricting.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the materials and cushioning. Hand wash with a damp cloth and mild soap, then air dry.

What is the primary benefit of the Pure Gel technology?

The Pure Gel technology is designed to absorb shock during impact, providing a softer landing and reducing stress on your feet and joints.

How often should I replace my Gel-Contend 9 trainers?

The lifespan of trainers varies based on usage. For regular use, replacing them every 6-12 months or when cushioning feels significantly reduced is a good guideline.

Are these trainers waterproof?

These trainers are not waterproof. The engineered mesh upper is designed for breathability, which means it is not designed to repel water.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If they are new, wear them for short periods to allow them to break in. Lacing techniques can also be adjusted for a more relaxed fit.

Reduced cushioning effectiveness

The Pure Gel technology provides lasting cushioning, but if you notice a significant decrease, it may be time to consider replacement, especially after extensive use.

Material feels stiff

New shoes may require a short break-in period. Wear them around the house for a few hours each day until they become more flexible.
