Asics Contend 9 PS running shoes

The Contend™ 9 Pre-School shoe is designed for young feet. Each shoe in the collection features a hook and loop fastener that helps keep feet stabilized. Details like the toe reinforcement, toe rubber stitching, and solid rubber outsole increase durability and lengthen the shoe´s lifespan. Additionally, our CUB MATCH™ sockliner is printed with a tiger caricature that helps kids identify the right and left shoe.

Pronation:
Neutral:
- Foot Type: Normal size arches
- Push Off: There is even distribution from the front of the foot.
- Considered Injuries: Less likely due to effective shock absorption, but neutral runners are not immune to injury.
- How your foot contacts the ground: The foot lands on outside of the heel, then rolls inward (pronates) to absorb shock and support body weight.

Underpronation
- Foot Type: High arches
- Push Off: The pressure is on smaller toes on outside of foot.
- Considered Injuries: Plantar fasciitis, shin splints, ankle strain.
- How your foot contacts the ground: The outer side of the heel hits the ground at an increased angle with little or no normal pronation, causing a large transmission of shock through the lower leg.
