FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The Gel-Contend 9 trainers are designed with a standard fit. While they offer a comfortable general fit, they may not be ideal for exceptionally wide feet. Check product specifications or try them on if possible for the best assessment.
How do I know if I've chosen the right size?
Your child's heel should fit snugly, but not tightly, in the back of the shoe. There should be about a thumb's width of space between their longest toe and the front of the shoe. Ensure they can wiggle their toes freely.
Can these trainers be machine washed?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers as it can damage the materials and construction. Spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method for cleaning.
What is the benefit of the paste dyeing process for the insole?
The paste dyeing process used for the insole reduces water usage by approximately 33% compared to traditional dyeing methods, making the manufacturing process more environmentally friendly.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, the ASICS Gel-Contend 9 trainers are not waterproof. They are designed for general wear and training, offering breathability and comfort, but will not provide protection against heavy rain or immersion in water.
What age group are these shoes intended for?
These are 'Grade School' (GS) shoes, typically designed for children who have outgrown toddler sizes and are in their early school years. The size UK 13 falls into this category.
Where can I find other color options or sizes?

Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure the correct size has been selected. Try loosening the laces and re-tying them for a custom fit. If discomfort persists, consider exchanging for a different size or width if available.
Soles appear to be separating.
Check for any loose threads or debris that might be caught in the sole. Gently clean the affected area. If separation is significant, it may indicate excessive wear or a manufacturing defect. Contact customer support.
Stains on the upper material.
Spot clean immediately with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. For tougher stains, use a soft brush and cold water. Always air dry.
