FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?

The ASICS Gel-Contend 9 are designed for general training and everyday wear. For dedicated marathon running, specialized marathon shoes with advanced cushioning and support might be more appropriate.

How do I know if I have the right size UK 10?

Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The shoe should feel snug but not tight around the midfoot and heel.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the shoes. Hand clean with a damp cloth and mild soap.

What is the primary benefit of the GEL technology?

The GEL technology is integrated into the midsole to provide excellent shock absorption, reducing impact and making the shoes more comfortable during activity.

How durable is the rubber outsole?

The rubber outsole is designed for durability, offering optimal traction and wear resistance for general training and daily use.

Is this model available in other colors or sizes?

This specific guide is for the Blue/Yellow, UK 10 men's model. Other colorways and sizes may be available through ASICS retailers.

Troubleshooting

Slipping sensation inside the shoe

Ensure laces are tied correctly for a secure fit. Consider using insoles if additional arch support is needed.

Discomfort after initial wear

Allow a break-in period of a few wears. If discomfort persists, check for proper sizing or consider the shoe's suitability for your foot type.

Reduced traction over time

Clean the outsole with a damp cloth to remove accumulated dirt or debris that may be affecting grip.
