ASICS CONTEND™ 9 GS: Durable Comfort for Active Kids

The ASICS CONTEND™ 9 GS (Grade School) shoe is designed with young, energetic feet in mind. Whether your child is running at recess, walking to school, or playing their favorite sport, this shoe combines durability, comfort, and sustainability to keep up with their active lifestyle. Built for versatility and resilience, the CONTEND™ 9 GS is an excellent choice for kids who need a reliable shoe for walking, running, and everyday play.

Built for Durability

Kids are always on the move, and their shoes need to keep up. The CONTEND™ 9 GS features durable details like toe reinforcement and rubber stitching that protect high-wear areas from everyday wear and tear. The solid rubber outsole provides exceptional grip and longevity, ensuring the shoe lasts through hours of running, jumping, and exploring. These design features make the CONTEND™ 9 GS an excellent investment for parents looking for a long-lasting shoe.

Comfort for All-Day Play

Comfort is key for young feet, and the CONTEND™ 9 GS delivers with its thoughtful design. The shoe offers regular cushioning that absorbs impact during physical activities, reducing stress on growing joints. The neutral support type ensures a balanced and natural stride, whether your child is walking to school or sprinting across the playground.

The interior is just as comfortable as the exterior is durable. A solution-dyed sockliner provides a soft and supportive base while also helping to keep feet dry during intense activity. This focus on comfort means your child can stay active for longer without feeling discomfort or fatigue.

Perfect for Walking, Running, and Sports

Whether it’s a morning walk, after-school sports practice, or a spontaneous game of tag, the CONTEND™ 9 GS is ready for any adventure. The lightweight design—just 205 g (7.2 oz)—ensures that kids can move freely without feeling weighed down, while the 8.5 mm heel drop encourages a natural stride that’s ideal for both walking and running.

The versatile construction makes this shoe suitable for various activities:

  • Walking: Provides comfort and support for daily strolls or long walks to and from school.
  • Running: Cushioned for impact absorption, ensuring a smooth ride on hard surfaces like roads or tracks.
  • Sports: The solid rubber outsole and durable construction hold up under the demands of active sports and games.

Sustainability in Every Step

ASICS is committed to creating eco-friendly products, and the CONTEND™ 9 GS is no exception. At least 20% of the upper material is made from recycled content, helping to reduce waste and lower carbon emissions. Additionally, the solution dyeing process used for the sockliner reduces water usage by approximately 33% and cuts carbon emissions by around 45% compared to conventional dyeing methods. With the CONTEND™ 9 GS, your child can step into a sustainable future while staying active and comfortable.
