FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for marathon racing?

These are primarily designed as training shoes. While they are lightweight, they are built to support consistency during training phases leading up to a race.

How do I determine if the 11.5 UK size will fit correctly?

The Duramo SL 2 uses a regular fit. If you typically wear a standard UK 11.5 in athletic footwear, they should provide an expected fit. If you are between sizes, consider a fitting test in the late afternoon when your feet are at their largest.

Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?

It is not recommended. Machine washing can damage the adhesive and the structural integrity of the LIGHTMOTION midsole. Hand cleaning is strongly advised.

What is the primary surface for this shoe?

The Adiwear outsole is optimized for pavement and track surfaces.

Does this model provide arch support?

The shoe is built with a neutral, regular fit design. It does not contain specialized high-arch or corrective orthotic support.

Troubleshooting

Feeling excessive pressure on the top of the foot.

Loosen the laces across the midfoot area and consider a lacing technique that skips the eyelets directly over the pressure point.

Outsole losing traction in wet conditions.

Clean the bottom of the shoes to remove packed dirt or debris from the treads, which often obstructs the grip pattern.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely lightweight construction reduces foot fatigue.
  • Responsive cushioning adapts well to different running speeds.
  • Durable outsole provides long-lasting traction on hard surfaces.
  • Breathable upper keeps feet comfortable during warm-weather runs.
  • Stable design helps maintain form during training.

Cons

  • Not intended for technical trail running or off-road conditions.
  • Standard width may not accommodate very wide feet.
  • Limited to specific colorway combinations.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Duramo SL 2 trainers remain in peak condition, proper care is essential. Since they feature a mesh upper, avoid submerging them in water or using harsh detergents. Instead, spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can degrade the midsole foam. For the best fit, lace them securely to match your foot’s volume, ensuring the tongue is centered. These shoes are compatible with standard running socks; ensure your socks are synthetic or moisture-wicking to prevent friction and blisters.
