FAQs
Who are the Karrimor Duma 6 Running Shoes designed for?
These shoes are designed for kids, specifically for female youth, who are new to running or engage in casual athletic activities. They are an entry-level option providing comfort and support.
Are these shoes suitable for competitive running?
While they offer good basic support and cushioning, the Karrimor Duma 6 shoes are primarily designed for casual running, light training, and everyday active wear rather than competitive events which may require more specialized features.
How do I clean my Karrimor Duma 6 Running Shoes?
You can clean them by gently wiping the exterior with a damp cloth. For tougher dirt on the sole, use a soft brush with mild soap and water. Always air dry them away from direct heat.
What kind of cushioning do these shoes have?
The shoes feature an EVA insole for immediate underfoot comfort and a Phylon midsole which contributes to their lightweight feel and provides additional cushioning and shock absorption.
Will these shoes provide good grip?
Yes, the outsole is equipped with rubber pods strategically placed to provide reliable traction and grip on various common surfaces.
Are these shoes heavy?
No, the Karrimor Duma 6 is designed with a Phylon midsole which makes them notably lightweight, ensuring comfort during wear and reducing fatigue.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too loose or too tight.
Adjust the lace fastening. Ensure laces are evenly tightened across the foot, starting from the toe box upwards. If discomfort persists, verify you have the correct size for your foot.
Foot discomfort or rubbing during wear.
Ensure you are wearing appropriate running socks. Check for any debris inside the shoe. Allow for a short 'break-in' period as the shoes conform to your feet. If the issue continues, re-evaluate the fit and size.
Reduced traction on surfaces.
Clean the rubber pod outsole thoroughly to remove any accumulated dirt, mud, or small stones. Inspect the sole for signs of excessive wear; significant wear can reduce grip and may indicate the shoes need replacing.

Care
- Cleaning: To maintain appearance and performance, gently wipe the shoes with a damp cloth to remove dirt and grime. For stubborn marks on the sole, a soft brush with mild soap and water can be used. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage materials.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Ensure they are completely dry before storing to prevent odor and material degradation.
- Maintenance: Periodically check the laces for wear and replace them if necessary to maintain a secure fit. Inspect the outsole for excessive wear, which might indicate a need for replacement.
