ASICS - Contend 9 PS - Black - UK 4

While the ASICS Gel-Kinetic Fluent draws inspiration from archived running shoes and incorporates advanced cushioning, it is primarily designed for casual wear and all-day comfort, not for performance running or intense athletic training.

Wipe the synthetic upper with a damp cloth and mild soap, then rinse with a clean damp cloth. For the rubber sole, use a soft brush to remove dirt. Always air dry your shoes away from direct heat.

FF BLAST PLUS ECO is a lightweight and energetic cushioning foam that provides enhanced impact absorption and a softer underfoot feel. It is also partially made with bio-based materials, contributing to its 'ECO' designation.

Scutoid GEL technology is strategically integrated into the sole to offer advanced shock absorption. It helps to reduce the impact on your feet and joints, providing a more comfortable and cushioned stride.

ASICS Gel-Kinetic Fluent sneakers generally fit true to standard ASICS sizing. For the best fit, we recommend consulting the official ASICS size chart or trying them on if possible.

The synthetic upper offers some resistance to light moisture, but these shoes are not waterproof. We recommend avoiding heavy rain or prolonged exposure to wet conditions to help maintain their condition and comfort.

Ensure you have the correct size; ASICS often runs true to size. Try loosening the laces, especially in the forefoot area. Allow for a short break-in period, as new shoes sometimes need a few wears to conform to your feet. If discomfort persists, consider trying a half-size up.

A squeak can sometimes occur with new soles as they settle, or if there's moisture or debris trapped between the sole and the ground. Check the treads for any lodged small stones or dirt. If the squeak is persistent and internal, it may diminish with wear. If not, Info needed: [Contact ASICS customer support for further assistance].

For light dirt, wipe with a damp cloth. For more stubborn stains, use a soft brush or cloth with a small amount of mild soap and water. Gently scrub the affected area and then wipe clean with a fresh damp cloth. Air dry thoroughly. Avoid machine washing.
