FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for high-arch feet?
The Contend 10 is designed for neutral runners. If you have specific medical needs regarding arches, consider using an aftermarket orthotic insole.
Can I put these shoes in the dryer?
No, never place your running shoes in a dryer, as the heat can permanently damage the GEL and EVA cushioning components.
What surfaces are these shoes best for?
They are optimized for road running, paved paths, and indoor gym environments.
How often should I replace them?
As a general rule for running shoes, you should look to replace them every 300 to 500 miles, depending on usage intensity.
Is the mesh upper water-resistant?
The mesh is designed for breathability rather than water resistance, so they are not recommended for heavy rain or wet conditions.
Troubleshooting
Feeling discomfort after long runs
Ensure your laces are not tied too tightly; allow enough room for natural foot swelling that occurs during activity.
Accumulation of moisture inside
Remove the inner sockliner and let the shoes air out in a well-ventilated area after each workout.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your ASICS Contend 10 trainers, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: While these shoes offer immediate comfort, wear them for short walks before moving to longer runs to allow the foam to adapt to your foot shape.
- Size Selection: Ensure you are using the correct UK adult sizing (e.g., UK 5.5) for a secure fit. Always wear running-specific socks to prevent friction.
- Cleaning: Clean the shoes manually by removing dirt with a soft brush. Use cold water and mild soap for stains. Avoid using a washing machine, as high temperatures can degrade the cushioning materials.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators, as this can warp the EVA midsole.
