FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The ASICS Contend 9 are designed with a standard fit. While they offer a secure feel, they may not be ideal for children with exceptionally wide feet without trying them on first.

What age group are these trainers for?

These trainers are specifically designed for kids, indicated by the 'kids' age group attribute. They are suitable for children who require durable and comfortable athletic footwear.

How much of the shoe is made from recycled materials?

At least 20% of the shoe's main upper material is made from recycled materials.

Can these shoes be washed in a machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Cleaning with a damp cloth and air drying is the preferred method to maintain their structure and materials.

What is the main benefit of the insole dyeing method?

The solution dyeing method used for the insole reduces water consumption by approximately 33% and carbon emissions by approximately 45% compared to conventional dyeing methods, making it a more environmentally friendly process.

How do I ensure the best fit?

Ensure the child's foot is properly measured. Lace the shoes snugly but not too tight, and check that there is a small amount of space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and adjust the fit. Ensure the correct size has been selected. If still uncomfortable, consider a different model or size up.

Traction seems poor

Clean the rubber outsole to remove any dirt or debris that might be affecting grip. Ensure the shoes are not excessively worn down.

Toe cap scuffing excessively

While reinforced, aggressive play can still cause scuffs. Clean gently. The reinforcement is designed to prolong the life of the shoe despite normal wear and tear.
