Product Information
Full details
The ASICS Gel Contend 10 is designed for adult male runners seeking a reliable, entry-level trainer that balances everyday comfort with essential support. Its primary benefit is the combination of signature GEL technology and a lightweight EVA midsole, providing a cushioned ride for daily training. However, potential users should note that as a neutral daily trainer, it is optimized for standard road running rather than specialized high-performance racing or aggressive trail conditions.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for flat feet?
The Gel Contend 10 offers a neutral platform. While it provides good general support, those with specific biomechanical needs may wish to consult a podiatrist.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, it is not recommended to machine wash your trainers. High temperatures and agitation can damage the foam and glue, shortening the lifespan of the shoe.
What is the primary use for the Gel Contend 10?
These are designed as daily trainers suitable for casual running, gym sessions, and walking.
How should I clean the white midsole?
Use a soft-bristled brush with warm water and a little soap to gently scrub the foam midsole, then wipe clean with a cloth.
Do these run true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing, but we recommend measuring your feet in the evening when they are at their largest to ensure a proper fit.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slipping or instability
Adjust the lacing technique using the runner's loop or ensure the heel is firmly seated in the back of the shoe.
Excessive moisture or overheating
Ensure you are wearing moisture-wicking synthetic running socks rather than thick cotton socks to allow the mesh upper to breathe correctly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Gel Contend 10 trainers, start by selecting the correct UK size for your foot profile. Ensure the laces are tightened evenly to provide lockdown across the midfoot without restricting circulation.
Care Instructions:
- Remove loose dirt or mud with a soft brush after running.
- Clean the mesh upper using a mild detergent and a damp cloth; avoid soaking the shoes.
- Air dry in a shaded area away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the EVA foam.
- Replace the shoes every 300–500 miles depending on your running frequency and surface conditions.
