FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for a marathon?

These trainers are best suited for short to medium distances and training runs rather than full-length marathon racing.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash running shoes as it can damage the glue and technical foam; spot cleaning with mild soap and water is preferred.

What is the midsole drop of the Duramo SL 2?

The shoe features an 8mm drop, with a 31mm heel and 23mm forefoot stack height.

Do these run true to size?

They are designed with a regular fit; however, always verify your size against your specific UK foot measurements before use.

What surfaces are these best for?

These trainers are primarily designed for road, pavement, and treadmill running.

Troubleshooting

Feeling of slippage in the heel

Ensure the laces are threaded through the top eyelets and use a runner's loop (lock-lacing) to secure the heel.

Outer sole traction feels reduced

Clean the bottom of the shoes to remove packed-in dirt or debris that clogs the tread patterns.

Cushioning feels less responsive

Allow the foam to 'rest' for 24 hours between runs to allow the material to recover its shape.

Pros and Cons

  • Excellent traction provided by the high-quality rubber outsole
  • Supportive cushioning ideal for both beginners and mid-distance runners
  • Secure lace-up closure for a customizable fit
  • Breathable mesh materials maintain internal airflow

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best experience, try your trainers on with the specific socks you intend to use for running before finalizing your fit. Be aware that the manufacturer box or label may display US or EU sizing, so confirm your UK size is correct. Keep your trainers in good condition by removing mud or debris from the outsole with a soft brush after your runs. If they become wet, air-dry them away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the materials and degrade the cushioning foam.
