Breathable Mesh Upper

Constructed using a Breathable Mesh Upper, the ASICS Gel-Contend 6 junior Running Shoes feature a breathable mesh upper which encases each foot in breathable comfort. The mesh allows air to fully permeate the entire upper, providing a constant supply of fresh, cool air while simultaneously forcing out hot, muggy air. The mesh upper creates a perfect microclimate for your feet to thrive in. Overlays have been used on the upper to increase structure and support. The overlays have been placed around the midfoot and around the toe for long-lasting comfort and guide. The upper has been designed to provide excellent support for young feet, good news for when your toddler just wants to keep on going and going. Completing the upper is a lacing system which works with the midfoot strap to lock down the midfoot to reduce in-shoe slippage for a distraction-free fit.

Amplifoam Midsole

The midsole of the ASICS Gel-Contend 6 Junior Running Shoes features the comfortable, flexible and durable Amplifoam technology. This midsole compound uses classic EVA and a 45-degree density to ensure comfortable cushioning, enhanced durability and more flexibility. The midsole material is engineered to maintain durability at softer densities, providing better flexibility, comfort, and platform adaptability ideal for natural running. Lightweight and resilient, AmpliFoam spares your little one's joints as they strike down onto hard, unforgiving surfaces. As well as this, ASICS' signature GEL Cushioning System has been placed in the rearfoot of the ASICS Gel-Contend 6 Running Shoes to supply bounce back and shock absorption; sparing your joints as you volley and lob, and leap and land on unforgiving surfaces, allowing for smooth transitions and movement in multiple planes. Completing the midsole is an EVA sockliner which provides ample underfoot cushioning so your kids can go further for longer in complete comfort.

Durable Rubber Outsole

Developed using a durable rubber outsole, the ASICS Gel-Contend 6 junior Running Shoes ensures improved grip in varied conditions. The rubber outsole is able to form a solid bond with the ground beneath it to ensure traction and grip on road surfaces. As well as this, the rubber outsole is highly durable to ensure long-lasting wear. The durable nature of the rubber will not wear down easily so these shoes will withstand the trials and tribulations of the playground. Completing the outsole are flex grooves which assist with grip and form a solid base to push from. The grooves allow the whole of the outsole to naturally flex where the foot flexes to increase comfort as well as performance.
