FAQs
What type of activities are the ASICS Gel-Contend 9 best suited for?
They are ideal for general outdoor activities, light trail running, walking, gym workouts, and everyday casual wear due to their cushioning and durable trail outsole.
How does the GEL technology work?
The strategically placed GEL technology in the rearfoot absorbs shock during impact, providing a softer landing and reducing stress on your joints.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The ASICS Gel-Contend 9 are designed with breathability in mind, featuring a mesh upper. They are not waterproof but offer good ventilation.
How do I clean my Gel-Contend 9 trainers?
Wipe them with a damp cloth for general cleaning. Avoid machine washing or harsh chemicals to preserve the shoe's integrity and cushioning.
What does the eco-conscious dyeing process mean?
This process uses less water and reduces carbon emissions compared to conventional dyeing methods, making the shoe more environmentally friendly.
What is AMPLIFOAM PLUS?
AMPLIFOAM PLUS is a midsole technology that ensures a soft and flexible underfoot feel, enhancing comfort throughout the day.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
The sizing is based on UK women's foot sizes. It is recommended to consult a sizing chart or try them on if possible to ensure the best fit.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and adjust the fit. If still too tight after adjustment, consider if this is the correct size for your foot. Refer to the sizing chart.
Reduced grip on wet surfaces
The trail outsole is designed for varied terrain, but performance on extremely wet or slippery surfaces may be reduced. Ensure the outsole is clean from debris.
Discomfort after initial wear
Allow a short break-in period for the shoes to mold to your feet. If discomfort persists, ensure you have the correct size and width.
