FAQs

What type of activities are the ASICS Gel-Kahana 8 best suited for?

These trainers are best suited for general athletic training, gym workouts, cross-training, and everyday wear. They offer good cushioning and support for a variety of movements.

How do I know if I have the right size?

There should be about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The shoe should feel snug but not tight, with no excessive heel slippage.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, it is not recommended to machine wash ASICS Gel-Kahana 8 trainers. This can damage the materials, the GEL cushioning, and the structural integrity of the shoe. Hand wash with mild soap and water and air dry.

How often should I replace my trainers?

For optimal performance and injury prevention, trainers are typically recommended to be replaced every 300-500 miles of use, or when you notice significant wear on the outsole, midsole cushioning, or upper.

What does 'Glacier Grey/Grand Shark' refer to?

This refers to the colorway of the trainers. 'Glacier Grey' is the primary color, and 'Grand Shark' is an accent color used on parts of the shoe.

Are these trainers waterproof?

The ASICS Gel-Kahana 8 trainers are not designed to be waterproof. They are made with breathable materials to promote ventilation, which means they will not keep water out.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have the correct UK size. Try wearing them with different types of athletic socks. Break them in gradually with shorter wear periods.

Reduced cushioning effectiveness over time

The GEL cushioning may naturally reduce over extended use. Consider replacing the shoes if they have been heavily used for over 500 miles or if cushioning feels significantly diminished.

Traction seems poor on certain surfaces

Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris. The traction pattern is designed for general use; specialized surfaces might require specific footwear.

Discoloration or material wear

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or harsh chemicals. Clean only with recommended mild methods. If significant wear occurs, it may be time for replacement.

Care Instructions: To maintain the condition of your ASICS Gel-Kahana 8 trainers:

  1. Cleaning: Remove excess dirt with a soft brush or cloth. For tougher stains, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials and cushioning.
  2. Drying: Air dry the shoes at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape during drying.
