ASICS CONTEND™ 9 TS: A Perfect Fit for Toddler Adventures

The ASICS CONTEND™ 9 TS (Toddler Size) shoe is thoughtfully crafted to support the active lifestyles of little ones. Whether your toddler is taking their first steps, exploring the backyard, or playing with friends, this shoe provides the comfort, durability, and stability their growing feet need. Designed for walking and playing, the CONTEND™ 9 TS is built to keep up with every adventure while introducing fun, functional features that help toddlers gain independence.

Easy On and Off for Busy Toddlers

Getting toddlers ready for the day is easier with the CONTEND™ 9 TS. Each pair features a convenient hook-and-loop fastener belt that allows for a secure, adjustable fit. This design makes it simple for parents to quickly fasten the shoes, while also encouraging toddlers to practice putting them on independently. The secure closure ensures their feet stay stabilized during movement, giving you peace of mind as they walk and play.

Comfort for Little Feet

Toddlers’ feet need support as they develop, and the CONTEND™ 9 TS delivers with regular cushioning and a 3.5 mm heel drop that promotes natural movement. The lightweight construction—just 85 g (3 oz)—ensures your child can move freely and comfortably without feeling weighed down. Whether they’re taking their first steps or running around with friends, these shoes provide the perfect balance of comfort and support.

Built for Durability and Play

From climbing to crawling, toddlers put their shoes to the test. The CONTEND™ 9 TS is built to withstand the rigors of daily play with features like a reinforced toe area and a solid rubber outsole. These elements not only protect the shoe from wear and tear but also provide excellent traction, helping toddlers stay steady as they explore their world.

Fun and Educational Design

Helping toddlers learn which shoe goes on which foot has never been easier—or more fun. The CONTEND™ 9 TS includes a CUB MATCH™ sockliner, printed with a playful tiger graphic that helps kids identify the left and right shoes. This clever design feature encourages early independence and gives toddlers a sense of accomplishment as they dress themselves.
