FAQs
Are the ASICS Gel-Contend 10 trainers suitable for running?
They are designed for light exercise and daily activity. While comfortable for jogging, they are best suited for walking and general fitness rather than professional or long-distance competitive running.
Can I replace the provided insole with my own orthotics?
Yes, the insole is fully removable, making these shoes highly compatible with aftermarket orthotic inserts.
How should I clean my trainers?
Use a damp cloth and mild soap for the exterior. Always air dry in a well-ventilated area; do not put them in a dryer.
What is the primary benefit of GEL technology?
The GEL technology is placed to provide superior shock absorption, which helps protect your joints and makes walking on hard surfaces more comfortable.
Is the upper material waterproof?
The synthetic upper is designed for breathability, which means it is not waterproof. It is best to avoid heavy rain or standing water.
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they follow standard adult sizing guidelines, though you should account for any extra room needed if using thick socks or bulky custom orthotics.
Troubleshooting
Insole sliding or bunching up during use
Ensure the insole is properly seated flat against the base of the shoe. If it persists, remove it and clean any dust or debris from the sole interior.
Outer sole traction feels reduced
Check the grooves of the rubber outsole for lodged stones or dirt buildup that may be preventing full surface contact; clean with a stiff brush.
Upper material appearing dull or dirty
Gently clean the synthetic upper using a cloth dampened with water and a very mild detergent; allow to air dry completely away from direct sunlight.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your ASICS Gel-Contend 10 trainers stay in peak condition, regular care is recommended. The shoes come with a removable insole; if the interior accumulates debris, simply remove the insole, shake out loose particles, and wipe the footbed with a damp cloth. For the exterior synthetic upper, use a soft-bristled brush and mild soap to spot clean any surface marks. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can compromise the structural integrity of the cushioning and bonding materials. When choosing your size, remember that these are standard athletic fits; if you use custom insoles, ensure you account for the space required inside the shoe.
