FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?
These are designed as high-quality everyday trainers and light exercise shoes. While they offer great comfort, specialized long-distance runners may prefer more technical performance series.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
It is not recommended. Machine washing can damage the adhesive and structural integrity of the shoe. Use hand cleaning methods instead.
Does this model come in different widths?
The standard fit of the Gel-Contend 10 is designed for a medium foot volume. Please check your specific sizing requirements.
How often should I replace my trainers?
Generally, it is advised to replace trainers every 300-500 miles, or when you notice the midsole cushioning no longer provides sufficient bounce.
Are the laces included?
Yes, every pair comes with high-quality laces compatible with the eyelet design of the trainer.
Troubleshooting
Inner sole feels loose or bunches up during use
Remove the insole, clean the cavity of any debris, and ensure it is placed flat before reinserting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Gel-Contend 10 trainers maintain their performance, follow these care steps:
- Cleaning: Remove the inner sock liner frequently to air out. Wipe the synthetic upper with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid fully submerging in water.
- Drying: Air dry naturally at room temperature. Never place shoes near heat sources like radiators, as this can degrade the foam and rubber adhesives.
- Compatibility: The removable insole makes these shoes compatible with most aftermarket orthotic inserts. Ensure you measure your feet in the afternoon when they are at their largest to guarantee the correct sizing (10.5 UK equivalent).
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to prevent UV damage to the synthetic fabrics.
