While the ASICS Contend 9 PS offers excellent cushioning and support suitable for daily training and medium distances, for serious marathon training, some athletes might opt for shoes specifically designed with even more advanced stability and long-distance features.
GEL™ Technology is a broader term for ASICS' silicone-based cushioning system. GEL SCUTOID Technology refers to a specific application of GEL™, featuring a 3D geometric design engineered to provide more targeted and efficient shock absorption in key impact areas.
No, it is not recommended to machine wash these sneakers. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning components. Always follow the care instructions provided, which typically involve hand-cleaning with mild soap and water.
ASICS generally runs true to size. We recommend ordering your standard UK shoe size. However, individual foot shapes vary, so if possible, try them on to ensure the best fit, especially considering the adult UK 9 sizing of this specific model.
The multicolor design is crafted with durable dyes. However, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and harsh cleaning chemicals can potentially cause fading over time. Adhering to the recommended care instructions will help maintain the vibrancy of the colors.
These sneakers are versatile and best suited for running (daily training, medium distances), gym workouts, light athletic training, and comfortable casual wear. Their cushioning and support make them ideal for activities requiring impact absorption.
Ensure your laces are not tied too tightly or too loosely. Consider if the shoe size is truly optimal for your foot; foot swelling can occur during exercise. If discomfort persists, a specialized insole might provide additional support tailored to your arch type.
Cushioning materials like GEL™ and FF Blast have a lifespan based on usage. Regularly inspect the sole for signs of wear. If the cushioning feels significantly degraded, it might be time to consider replacing your sneakers.
Establish a regular cleaning routine. For persistent dirt, use a soft brush to gently scrub the mesh areas with a mild soap solution. For the synthetic leather, a damp cloth is usually sufficient. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could dull the multicolor finish. Store them in a dust-free environment when not in use.
