FAQs

Is the HOKA Solimar 2 suitable for long-distance running?

While it is a capable daily trainer for moderate distances, it is designed more for general fitness and daily activity than for dedicated long-distance marathon training.

Can I remove the insoles?

Yes, the insoles are removable, making them compatible with most custom orthotics.

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, the Solimar 2 features a breathable upper that is not waterproof or water-resistant.

How often should I replace these trainers?

General athletic recommendations suggest replacing your trainers every 300-500 miles, depending on the intensity of your usage and surface types.

What is the primary difference between the Solimar 2 and HOKA's maximalist shoes?

The Solimar 2 features an approachable, lower stack height and a more streamlined silhouette compared to HOKA's thicker, high-cushion maximalist models.

Troubleshooting

Feeling pressure on the top of the foot

Try adjusting your lacing pattern to a 'window lacing' style to relieve pressure points over the bridge of the foot.

Outsole collecting debris

Periodically check the tread and use a soft-bristled brush to remove pebbles or dirt that may have lodged in the high-wear rubber zones.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent durability due to reinforced high-wear rubber zones
  • Versatile design suitable for both gym and street wear
  • Stable heel design provides a secure and smooth gait
  • Ultra-plush materials enhance long-term comfort

Cons

  • Not intended for technical trail running or racing
  • May feel less propulsive than HOKA's maximalist racing models
  • Limited colorways for specific sizes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your HOKA Solimar 2 trainers, use the following guidelines:

  1. Sizing: These shoes are true to size; ensure you have a thumbnail's width of space at the front of the shoe to avoid toe discomfort.
  2. Lacing: Use the top eyelets for a runner's loop if you experience heel slippage during activity.
  3. Cleaning: Hand wash using mild soap and cold water. Remove insoles to dry separately in the shade. Do not put them in the washing machine or tumble dryer, as heat can degrade the midsole foam.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the materials.
