FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for flat feet?
The HB Runner 2 is designed for neutral runners. If you have severe flat feet, you may wish to consider using a specific orthotic insole for added arch support.
Can I use these for gym workouts?
While primarily for running, the stable midsole makes them adequate for light weightlifting and general gym cross-training.
How long should these trainers last?
Generally, running shoes are recommended for replacement between 300 and 500 miles, depending on your running surface and body weight.
Is the upper material waterproof?
No, the engineered mesh is designed for maximum breathability rather than water resistance.
Do these run true to size?
Yes, they follow standard UK sizing for adult male athletic footwear.
How should I clean the white sections of the midsole?
Use a damp sponge with a small amount of non-abrasive cleaning agent to wipe away surface scuffs.
Troubleshooting
Feeling instability during runs
Check your lacing technique; a 'runner's loop' can provide a more secure heel lock.
Reduced cushioning responsiveness
Ensure the shoes are not being stored in extreme cold or heat, which can affect the HOVR foam density.
Outer sole debris accumulation
Use a soft brush or compressed air to remove pebbles or dirt from the rubber outsole tread patterns.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your HB Runner 2 trainers, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Sizing: These shoes are standard fit. Ensure you wear your preferred running socks during sizing to guarantee proper arch and toe alignment.
- Cleaning: Hand wash only using mild soap and a soft brush. Do not machine wash, as this can degrade the HOVR cushioning integrity.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the mesh material to shrink or glue to loosen.
- Rotation: If running daily, consider alternating pairs to allow the cushioning foam 24 hours to decompress, which extends the shoe's lifespan.
