FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the LIGHTMOTION midsole?

The LIGHTMOTION midsole is designed to provide responsive cushioning that adapts to your stride, helping to reduce impact and enhance comfort during runs.

Are these shoes suitable for marathon training?

The Duramo SL 2 shoes are suitable for building consistency and endurance for race training, including marathon preparation. However, for very high mileage or specific ultra-marathon needs, runners might consider shoes with more specialized long-distance cushioning.

How do I determine the correct UK size?

Refer to Adidas's official sizing chart for men's footwear, comparing your foot measurement to their UK size recommendations. Trying them on in person is the most accurate method.

Can I machine wash these running shoes?

It is not recommended to machine wash these running shoes. Hand washing with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method for cleaning to preserve the materials and structure.

What is the weight of the shoe?

The shoes weigh approximately 291 grams for a UK size 8.5.

What is the heel-to-toe drop?

The midsole drop is 9 mm, with a heel height of 33 mm and a forefoot height of 24 mm.

Are these shoes waterproof?

The shoes feature a synthetic and textile mesh upper, which is breathable but not waterproof. They are designed for dry conditions and general training, not for heavy rain or wet environments.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight/loose.

Adjust the lacing. For tightness, loosen the laces; for looseness, tighten them, ensuring the knot is secure.

Reduced grip on wet surfaces.

The Adiwear outsole provides good grip, but performance on extremely wet surfaces can vary. Ensure the outsole is clean of debris. For very wet conditions, exercise caution.

Discomfort during long runs.

Ensure the shoes fit correctly. If discomfort persists, consider the specific demands of your run and whether a different type of cushioning or support might be needed for your gait.
