FAQs
Are the ASICS Kahana TR V2 suitable for marathon running on roads?
While they offer good cushioning, the Kahana TR V2 is primarily designed for trail running and varied outdoor terrains. For dedicated road marathon running, ASICS may offer models with specific road-focused cushioning and responsiveness.
How do I determine my correct UK shoe size?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by ASICS or the retailer. Typically, you should measure the length of your foot from heel to toe and compare it to the chart. It's advisable to try them on if possible, as fit can vary.
Can these trainers be used for hiking?
Yes, the ASICS Kahana TR V2 trainers are well-suited for hiking due to their supportive design, durable construction, and cushioning suitable for varied outdoor terrain.
What is the main difference between these and standard ASICS running shoes?
The Kahana TR V2 features a more robust outsole with deeper lugs for better grip on trails and generally more cushioning and support to handle uneven surfaces, compared to standard road running shoes.
How often should I replace my ASICS Kahana TR V2 trainers?
For optimal performance and injury prevention, it's generally recommended to replace running shoes every 300-500 miles (480-800 km) or when the cushioning and support significantly diminish. For less frequent use, inspect them regularly for signs of wear.
Can I wear these shoes in wet conditions?
The trainers offer some resistance to light moisture, but they are not waterproof. For very wet conditions, consider waterproof footwear. Ensure they are dried properly after getting wet.
What does the 'TR' in Kahana TR V2 stand for?
The 'TR' typically stands for 'Trail Running', indicating the shoe's primary intended use for off-road adventures.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort or rubbing during initial wear
This is common with new shoes. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase duration to allow them to break in. Ensure socks are appropriate and properly fitted.
Reduced grip on very wet or muddy surfaces
The sole pattern is designed for varied terrain; performance may vary on extremely slick surfaces. Clean the outsole treads regularly to ensure optimal grip.
Cushioning feels too firm or too soft
Individual perception of cushioning varies. If feeling too firm, consider a thicker insole. If too soft, ensure the laces are tied correctly to provide adequate support.
Shoes appear to be wearing out quickly
Ensure the shoes are being used for their intended purpose (trail running/walking). Excessive use on abrasive surfaces like concrete may accelerate wear. Inspect for any manufacturing defects.
