FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
It is recommended to hand clean with a damp cloth to protect the integrity of the cushioning foam and adhesive components.
Can I use these for long-distance running?
While capable of light jogging, they are primarily designed as general trainers and may not provide the technical support required for long-distance marathon training.
What is the heel drop of the Duramo SL 2?
The shoe features an 8 mm midsole drop, consisting of a 31 mm heel and 23 mm forefoot.
How do I choose the right size?
These trainers use standard UK sizing. We recommend choosing your usual shoe size, ensuring there is roughly a thumb-width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe.
Is the material waterproof?
No, the shoes are constructed from textile and synthetic mesh, which is designed for breathability rather than water resistance.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone during activity
Use a double knot or look into professional running lacing techniques to increase tension across the midfoot.
Accumulation of dust in mesh pores
Use a dry, soft brush to periodically agitate the mesh, then wipe with a damp cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Duramo SL 2 trainers remain in peak condition, always ensure the lace closure is snug but not constricting to avoid pressure points on the top of the foot. For sizing, these follow standard UK adult sizing (specifically the 5.5 UK variant).
Care instructions include:
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dried mud or debris from the mesh upper.
- Stains: Gently spot clean with mild soapy water; do not soak the shoes or use harsh chemical cleaners.
- Drying: Air dry only at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can warp the cushioning foam.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry area out of direct sunlight to prevent material discoloration.
