FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for marathon training?

The Duramo SL 2 is excellent for entry-level training and distances up to 10k, but serious marathoners may eventually prefer higher-cushioned models.

Can I use these for gym workouts?

Yes, the stable LIGHTMOTION midsole makes them suitable for light gym training, weight lifting, and treadmill sessions.

How should I clean the mesh upper?

Gently wipe the mesh with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes that could tear the fabric.

What is the midsole drop?

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

Are they true to size?

They feature a standard regular fit; it is recommended to buy your usual athletic shoe size.

Troubleshooting

Feeling pressure on the top of the foot

Try a different lacing pattern, such as skipping the eyelets where the pressure is greatest to adjust volume.

Outsole losing traction

Clean the tread with a damp cloth to remove compacted debris or dust that may be limiting grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best performance from your trainers, verify your sizing using the UK standard fit provided. Lace the shoes snugly but avoid overtightening to maintain circulation.

Care Instructions:

  • Remove surface dirt with a soft brush after each run.
  • If shoes get wet, air-dry them naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent material degradation.
  • Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as high heat can compromise the adhesive and foam properties of the midsole.
