FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathon training?
The Duramo SL 2 is best suited for short to medium-distance runs and general fitness, rather than long-distance endurance marathons.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
It is recommended to hand clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Machine washing can compromise the structural integrity and cushioning properties of the shoe.
Are these true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard adult sizing. If you prefer to wear thicker performance socks, some users find a half-size larger provides a more comfortable fit.
What surfaces are the Adiwear outsoles best for?
They are designed for hard surfaces like roads, pavements, and indoor gym flooring.
Do these provide arch support?
They offer neutral support suitable for most foot types. If you have severe pronation issues, you may wish to use a specialized insert.
Troubleshooting
Feeling discomfort after long periods of wear
Ensure the laces are not over-tightened at the top and consider replacing the factory insole with an orthotic if you have specific arch requirements.
Outsole losing traction in wet conditions
Clean any debris or mud trapped in the outsole tread patterns, as built-up dirt can compromise the grip of the Adiwear rubber.
Trainers feeling loose during running
Try the 'heel lock' lacing method by utilizing the top eyelet to create a more secure hold around your ankle.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your trainers last, follow these maintenance tips:
- Break-in: Wear your trainers for short periods during the first week to allow the foam to adapt to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush after each use. If the trainers become wet, remove the insoles and stuff the shoes with newspaper to absorb moisture, allowing them to air dry away from direct heat sources.
- Lacing: Adjust laces so they are firm across the midfoot but not so tight that they restrict circulation across the top of the arch.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the cushioning materials.
