FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for marathons?

They are ideal for training runs and building endurance; however, advanced marathoners may prefer a more specialized carbon-plated shoe for race day.

What is the heel-to-toe drop?

The Duramo SL 2 features a 9mm drop, with a 33mm heel and 24mm forefoot height.

Can I use these for gym workouts?

Yes, the stable base and secure lockdown make them suitable for gym-based strength training and treadmill use.

Is the upper waterproof?

No, the mesh upper is designed for maximum breathability and will allow water to pass through if you step in puddles.

How do I know if the size is correct?

You should have approximately a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to accommodate foot swelling during long runs.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight across the midfoot

Adjust the lacing pattern by loosening the laces near the arch or using a 'runner's loop' to customize the tension.

Slipping at the heel during runs

Use the extra eyelet at the top of the shoe to perform a heel-lock lacing technique for better security.

Midsole foam feels less responsive

Ensure the shoes are given at least 24 hours of rest between runs to allow the cushioning foam to recover its shape.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight construction minimizes leg fatigue
  • Breathable upper material ideal for warm-weather training
  • Highly durable outsole for longevity on hard surfaces
  • Responsive cushioning suitable for various training paces
  • Reliable stability for daily road running

Cons

  • Not intended for technical trail or uneven terrain
  • Limited colorway options compared to premium lines
  • Standard width may not accommodate very wide feet

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For the best fit, ensure you wear the type of socks you intend to use for your runs when sizing the shoes. The Duramo SL 2 utilizes a regular fit, which is generally true to standard sizing. To care for your trainers, avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the synthetic adhesives and mesh structure. If they become dirty, use a soft brush or a damp cloth with mild soap to gently wipe away debris. Always allow your shoes to air dry naturally in a shaded, well-ventilated area, avoiding direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the cushioning foam.
