FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for marathon running?

The ASICS Gel-Contend 4 trainers are designed for general comfort and everyday activities. For marathon running, specialized shoes with advanced cushioning and support features are recommended.

How do I know if I have the right size?

You should have about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe when standing. The shoe should feel snug but not tight, with no pinching or excessive rubbing.

Can these trainers be worn in wet conditions?

While they can handle light moisture, they are not waterproof. For heavy rain or wet environments, consider waterproof footwear. Allow them to air dry thoroughly if they get wet.

What is the main difference between Gel-Contend and other ASICS series?

The Gel-Contend series typically offers a balance of comfort and durability for everyday wear and light athletic activities. Other ASICS series might focus on more advanced technologies for specific sports, higher performance, or greater impact protection.

How often should I replace my trainers?

It's generally recommended to replace trainers every 300-500 miles of running or when you notice significant wear on the sole or a loss of cushioning and support. For everyday wear, replace them when they no longer feel comfortable or supportive.

Is the 'Blue Gold' colorway available in other sizes?

The 'Blue Gold' colorway is available in various adult sizes. Please check the product listing for the specific size you require.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. Try breaking in the shoes with shorter periods of wear. Check if the size is correct; a shoe that is too small or too large can cause discomfort.

Reduced cushioning over time

The cushioning may naturally decrease with extensive use. Consider replacing the trainers if they no longer provide adequate support or comfort after prolonged wear.

Slipping on smooth surfaces

The outsole grip is optimized for general use. For exceptionally slippery conditions, consider alternative footwear specifically designed for those environments. Ensure the outsole is clean from debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for general adult foot anatomy and are compatible with standard athletic socks. They are suitable for use on most common surfaces, including pavements, tracks, and gym floors.

Care: To maintain the trainers:

  1. Wipe clean with a damp cloth for general dirt.
  2. For heavier soiling, use a mild soap and water solution, applied with a soft brush or cloth.
  3. Allow shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight.
  4. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can damage the materials and construction.
