FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?
The Gel-Contend 10 is designed for general training and moderate activity. While comfortable, serious long-distance runners may prefer specialized marathon footwear.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
It is not recommended. Machine washing can damage the adhesive and structural integrity of the shoe. Use hand cleaning instead.
Can I replace the original insoles with my own orthotics?
Yes, the Gel-Contend 10 features a removable insole, making it compatible with most aftermarket orthotic inserts.
What does the GEL technology do?
ASICS GEL technology is a cushioning system that absorbs shock during the impact phase, helping to protect your joints during walking or training.
Are these trainers true to size?
Most users find the ASICS Gel-Contend 10 fits true to standard UK sizing for adult men.
Troubleshooting
Insoles feel slippery or move during use
Ensure the insole is seated correctly in the heel cup; if the issue persists, consider replacing with a fresh aftermarket insole.
Difficulty maintaining traction on wet surfaces
Check the rubber outsole for excessive debris or mud buildup; clean the treads thoroughly to restore grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best fit, ensure you select your standard UK sizing, as the ASICS Gel-Contend 10 runs true to size. To keep your trainers in optimal condition:
- Routine Cleaning: Remove the insoles after a workout if you tend to sweat, allowing them to air dry separately.
- Surface Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush and mild soap to remove dirt from the mesh and rubber outsole.
- Drying: Always air dry at room temperature; avoid placing them near heat sources like radiators, which can warp the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation.
