FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?
The Gel-Contend 10 is designed for daily training and moderate distances; while comfortable, specialized long-distance marathon shoes may be preferred for competitive racing.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No. Machine washing can damage the glue and the foam cushioning. Always clean by hand.
Do these come in different widths?
This specific model follows a standard width profile. Please check the specific product variant for any 'wide' or 'narrow' designations.
Is the insole permanent?
No, the insole is removable, making it easy to clean or replace with a customized orthotic.
Are they waterproof?
They feature a breathable synthetic upper, which is not waterproof and may allow water penetration during heavy rain.
What is the primary use case for this shoe?
They are ideal for road running, walking, and general gym-based fitness training.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of insufficient arch support
Remove the factory insole and replace it with a specialized aftermarket orthotic insert.
Accumulated dirt on the mesh
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dried mud before wiping with a damp cloth.
Foot slipping inside the shoe
Ensure the laces are tensioned correctly through all eyelets, including the 'heel lock' eyelet if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Asics Gel-Contend 10 trainers remain in optimal condition, verify your UK sizing (this specific model is a size 8.5) before your first workout. For daily care, simply wipe down the synthetic upper with a damp cloth to remove dust or mud. If the interior becomes soiled, remove the insertable insole and hand wash it in mild soap and cold water; air dry only. Avoid machine washing or using high-heat dryers, as these can compromise the structural integrity of the cushioning and adhesives.
