FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for flat feet?

The Gel Contend 10 offers a neutral support profile that works well for many, but individuals with severe overpronation may require specialized inserts.

Can I use these for trail running?

While the outsole is durable, these are optimized for paved surfaces and roads, not technical, uneven terrain.

How often should I replace these shoes?

Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running style and surface conditions.

Are they waterproof?

No, the mesh upper is designed for breathability rather than water resistance.

Is the insole removable?

Yes, the standard sockliner can be removed if you prefer to use your own custom orthotics.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight after a long run

This is common due to natural foot swelling; ensure your laces are not tied too tightly across the bridge of the foot.

Visible dirt on mesh upper

Gently clean with a soft brush or a damp cloth using mild detergent and air dry at room temperature.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent impact protection in the heel
  • Highly breathable upper material
  • Durable construction for daily use
  • Comfortable fit for long-distance walking or jogging

Cons

  • Not intended for technical trail running
  • Heavier than specialized racing shoes
  • Limited color customization compared to premium lines

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your ASICS Gel Contend 10 remains in top condition, follow these simple guidelines:

  1. Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, wear them for shorter periods during the first three runs to allow the mesh to adapt to your foot shape.
  2. Sizing: These shoes are true to size. Ensure you have about a thumb's width of space at the front of the shoe to account for foot swelling during exercise.
  3. Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can damage the GEL and EVA foam components.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent premature breakdown of the synthetic materials.
