Product Information
Full details
The HOKA Solimar 2 is a versatile trainer designed for active adults who need a reliable shoe that transitions effortlessly from daily errands to gym workouts. It offers a balanced midsole and an extended crash pad for superior stability and comfort throughout the day; however, users looking for highly specialized, high-performance racing footwear may find the design more geared toward general training than competitive speed.

FAQs
Is the HOKA Solimar 2 suitable for running?
Yes, it is designed for versatile daily use, including light jogging and walking, though it is not a specialized long-distance racing shoe.
How do I determine my size?
The Solimar 2 features an accommodating fit; it is recommended to order your standard HOKA size based on your UK foot measurement.
Can I use these for weightlifting?
The stable base and crash pad make them suitable for general gym workouts, including weight training.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the sockliners (insoles) can be removed if you need to use your own custom orthotics.
How should I clean my black Solimar 2s?
Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap for spot cleaning. Avoid submerging in water.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure points around the midfoot
Adjust the lace tension by loosening the eyelets near the midfoot to allow the accommodating upper to better suit your foot volume.
Slight heel slippage
Try a 'runner's loop' or heel-lock lacing technique to secure the heel more firmly against the plush heel collar.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Solimar 2 trainers maintain their performance, perform a quick check for fit upon arrival to ensure the accommodating silhouette matches your foot volume. When caring for your shoes, avoid machine washing or machine drying, as high heat can degrade the midsole foam. Instead, clean the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. If the interior gets wet, remove the sockliner and let the shoes air dry away from direct sunlight or heat sources to maintain the integrity of the cushioning materials.
