FAQs

Is the adidas Duramo SL 2 suitable for marathon running?

While the shoe is excellent for training and up to 10k distances, professional marathon runners typically prefer specialized high-stack racing shoes; however, it is comfortable enough for general fitness running.

Are these shoes machine washable?

It is not recommended to wash these in a machine. Hand cleaning with mild soap and water is the best way to extend the life of the materials.

What does the 8 mm drop mean?

The drop refers to the difference in height between the heel (31 mm) and the forefoot (23 mm), which helps facilitate a smooth transition when you land on your heel.

Can I use these for court sports like tennis or basketball?

No, these are designed specifically for running. They lack the specialized lateral support needed for the side-to-side movements required in court sports.

Does the mesh upper provide enough support?

Yes, the engineered mesh is designed to be supportive while remaining breathable, providing a secure fit without sacrificing comfort.

Troubleshooting

Feeling tightness across the top of the foot

Try a different lacing technique, such as skipping the eyelet over the pressure point, to reduce tension.

Excessive movement inside the shoe

Ensure the laces are snugged correctly and consider using a runner's loop (heel lock) lacing style to secure the heel.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Duramo SL 2 trainers maintain their performance, follow these guidelines:

  1. Breaking In: Wear the shoes for short periods around the house or during light walking sessions before your first long-distance run.
  2. Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap; avoid soaking the shoes or using a washing machine, as high heat can damage the adhesives and synthetic materials.
  3. Drying: Air dry the shoes at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can cause the materials to warp or stiffen.
  4. Storage: Store in a dry, well-ventilated area to prevent moisture buildup and odors.
