Product Information
Full details
The ASICS CONTEND 9 GS trainers in pink are designed for active kids needing durable, comfortable footwear for everyday activities and multisport use. Their key benefit is enhanced durability for younger feet, though they are specifically a children's model, limiting adult usability. Key features include a reinforced toe cap, stitched toe cap, solid rubber outsole, and a cushioned midsole for comfort and traction. A significant portion of the upper is made from recycled materials, and the insole uses a water-saving dyeing process.
