FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running races?

The ASICS Contend 9 trainers are designed for general running and multisport activities, offering good cushioning and traction. For competitive racing, specialized running shoes with advanced features might be more appropriate.

How do I know if I've chosen the right size?

Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The shoe should feel snug but not tight around the foot, with no heel slippage.

Can these shoes be machine washed?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the shoe's structure, cushioning, and materials. Clean them using a damp cloth and mild soap.

What does 'GS' stand for in the product description?

GS typically stands for 'Grade School', indicating that the shoe is designed for children in that age and size range (often referred to as Primary School sizes).

How often should I check the wear and tear on these shoes?

It's advisable to inspect the shoes regularly, especially the outsole tread and any reinforced areas, for signs of wear. Replace them when the tread is significantly worn down or the cushioning feels depleted.

Are there other color options available for the Contend 9?

Yes, the ASICS Contend 9 comes in various colorways. Please check the product listing or retailer for available options.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel uncomfortable or tight

Loosen the laces and adjust them for a more comfortable fit. Ensure the correct size has been selected. Consider wearing appropriate socks.

Traction seems reduced

Clean the outsole tread with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris that may be affecting grip. Check for excessive wear on the rubber.

Interior smells unpleasant

Remove insoles and air them out separately. Sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors, then shake it out. Ensure shoes are dried properly after use.

Material scuffs easily

While designed for durability, scuffing can occur during intense play. Clean gently with a damp cloth. Minor scuffs are a sign of normal wear and tear for active footwear.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Enhanced durability for active children
  • Use of recycled materials in the upper
  • Environmentally friendly insole dyeing process
  • Comfortable cushioning for everyday wear
  • Good traction for various sports activities

Cons

  • Primarily designed for general training, not specialized high-performance sports
  • May not offer the advanced support required for specific athletic disciplines
  • Laces require manual tying, which might be a challenge for very young children

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: These are ready-to-wear trainers. Ensure the laces are tied securely before use. Adjust tightness for a comfortable fit, avoiding overly tight lacing that could restrict circulation.

Compatibility: Suitable for unisex children's wear. Designed for casual wear, school, and general multisport activities. Not intended for specialized professional sports that require specific biomechanical support.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Use a damp cloth with mild soap to wipe down the exterior. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Insole: Remove the insole for airing and cleaning if necessary. Hand wash gently with mild soap and water, then air dry completely.
  3. Drying: Never place shoes in a washing machine or dryer. Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Stuffing with paper towels can help absorb moisture and maintain shape during drying.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
