FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?
While the Duramo SL 2 is great for light jogging and training, it is primarily designed as a versatile trainer rather than a marathon-specific distance shoe.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the structural integrity of the upper mesh and the adhesive used in the midsole. Use hand cleaning methods instead.
What is the heel drop of this shoe?
The Duramo SL 2 features an 8 mm midsole drop, offering a balanced platform for various athletic movements.
Is the material waterproof?
No, the upper is made from synthetic and textile mesh designed for breathability, not water resistance.
Do these trainers run true to size?
They feature a regular fit. If you usually wear a specific UK size in adidas, the Duramo SL 2 typically adheres to that standard sizing.
What is the weight of the shoe?
The shoe weighs approximately 247 grams, based on a size UK 5.5, making it a very lightweight option for daily training.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone during activity
Consider using a double-knot or a runner's loop lock technique to secure the tension.
Foot discomfort or pressure points
Adjust the lacing pattern to be looser over the top of the bridge to allow for increased foot swelling during exercise.
Outsole losing traction
Ensure the tread is free of debris, gravel, or dried mud, which can inhibit grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting the most out of your Duramo SL 2 trainers involves proper fit and maintenance. When trying them on, ensure the lace closure is adjusted to lock the heel in place without cutting off circulation. For cleaning, remove surface dirt with a soft brush and use a damp cloth with mild soap for spot cleaning. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can compromise the adhesive and foam integrity. To maintain the cushioning, allow the shoes to air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can cause the synthetic mesh to lose shape.
