Whether you're training for a marathon or just enjoy a relaxed run, the ASICS GEL-CONTEND 8 is the ideal all-round running shoe for the neutral runner. No matter what pace you run - a 5k or a long run - you can rely on the GEL-CONTEND shoe. Experience the perfect balance between cushioning and responsiveness with this all-round running shoe!

Midsole

The AMPLIFOAM™ cushioning material provides good cushioning and energy return and a super comfortable feeling under the foot. It has a lower density and is formulated to increase softness. It gives the best in all six aspects of cushioning: impact absorption, fit response, pressure relief, energy return, durability and weight. In addition to the foam, the midsole is also equipped with GEL™ technology to absorb the shock with every step and soften the landing. Furthermore, the model has the GUIDANCE LINE™ technology, which is an arc-shaped groove that allows the shoe sole to bend while walking. This technology stimulates the bending and stretching of the foot at the toe base joints. What are the advantages of this? A better fit, less strain on the feet and more comfort while running. To top it all off, the ORTHOLITE™ insole ensures comfortable entry with long-lasting cushioning. Open cells in the sole keep your feet cool while running.

Upper

This shoe is highly breathable thanks to its jacquard mesh upper, which features textured yarns that allow sweat to escape and keep the inside dry. Because the mesh follows every step of the foot, it provides comfort and support. A large part of the upper is recycled, so ASICS strives, among other things, to make its products more sustainable.

Outsole

Flex grooves in the forefoot provide increased flexibility, while a rubber outsole provides good grip and traction. Run at your own pace on the ASICS GEL-CONTEND 8 and push your limits!
