FAQs
What makes the Cordura material beneficial for trainers?
Cordura material is known for its exceptional durability, resistance to abrasions, tears, and scuffs, making the trainers long-lasting even with frequent use.
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
These trainers are designed primarily for gym and general training activities. While they offer comfort, they may not provide the specialized cushioning and support required for long-distance running like marathons.
Can I wear these trainers in wet conditions?
The trainers can handle light moisture, but they are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to wet conditions may affect the material and grip. It's best to clean and dry them thoroughly after any exposure to moisture.
How do I find the right size?
Refer to the size chart provided by Mizuno and measure your foot length accurately. This model is designed for adult males, so ensure your foot measurements align with the available UK sizes.
What is the main advantage of the Contender Cordura series?
The Contender Cordura series combines Mizuno's performance expertise with the rugged durability of Cordura fabric, offering a versatile and long-lasting training shoe.
Can these trainers be used for professional sports?
While durable and comfortable for training, these trainers are general-purpose and may not meet the specific performance requirements for elite-level professional sports which often require highly specialized footwear.
Troubleshooting
Slight stiffness on first wear
This is normal for new trainers. Wear them for short periods initially to break them in gradually. The Cordura material will soften with use.
Traction feels reduced on certain surfaces
Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris. For improved grip on slippery surfaces, consider using a specialized shoe cleaner or consulting a shoe care professional.
Discomfort during prolonged wear
Verify you have the correct size and width. Consider using insoles designed for added arch support or cushioning if the standard footbed feels insufficient for your needs.
