FAQs
Are the ASICS Tiger Runner II trainers suitable for running?
These trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and everyday comfort. While they offer good cushioning, they are not engineered with the specific support and shock absorption required for intense running activities.
How do I determine my correct UK size?
Refer to the ASICS sizing chart available on their official website or consult the size guide provided by the retailer. Generally, measure your foot length and compare it to the chart.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and structure of the trainers. Hand wash gently with a damp cloth.
What is the main benefit of the EZFOAM insole?
The EZFOAM insole provides enhanced comfort and cushioning under the foot, making the trainers more comfortable for extended wear throughout the day.
How do these trainers compare to the original Tiger Runner model?
The Tiger Runner II builds upon the original design, often featuring updated cushioning technology like the EZFOAM insole for improved comfort, while maintaining a similar retro aesthetic.
What is the typical lifespan of these trainers with regular use?
With regular casual use and proper care, ASICS trainers typically last between 6 to 12 months. Durability can vary based on usage intensity and terrain.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort or rubbing
Ensure you have the correct size. Try wearing them with thicker socks or consider a break-in period. Check for any internal seams or debris causing irritation.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
The outsole grip may vary by surface. For slick surfaces, ensure the soles are clean and free from debris. Consider the intended use; these are for casual wear, not specialized traction.
Insole becoming less cushioned over time
While EZFOAM is durable, prolonged heavy use may reduce cushioning. If significant degradation occurs, consider replacing the insole with a compatible aftermarket one.
