Troubleshooting
Feeling discomfort or pressure on the top of the foot
Adjust the lace tightness to a 'window lacing' pattern, skipping the eyelet over the pressure point.
Shoes are losing grip on smooth indoor surfaces
Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth to remove dust buildup, which can reduce traction on gym floors.
Excessive moisture buildup inside the shoe
Remove the insole after your run and stuff the shoe with crumpled newspaper to help absorb trapped moisture overnight.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your adidas Duramo SL 2, perform an initial fit check to ensure your toes have at least a thumb-width of space at the front. The shoe follows a regular fit, so most runners can select their standard athletic shoe size.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush after your run.
- Hand Wash: Use lukewarm water and mild soap for stains; avoid machine washing as this can damage the midsole foam.
- Drying: Air dry only in a well-ventilated area. Do not place the shoes near radiators or direct heat sources, as this can warp the synthetic materials and compromise the cushioning effectiveness.
