FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the structural integrity and the Ortholite insole.

Are these suitable for trail running?

No, the Duma 6 is designed for road and gym use. Trail running requires shoes with more aggressive lug patterns for uneven terrain.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the Ortholite insoles are removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics if necessary.

How should I clean the knitted upper?

Gently dab with a soft brush or cloth using mild soap and cold water.

Are these true to size?

Yes, the Karrimor Duma 6 generally fits standard UK sizing, though allow for a thumb's width of space at the toes.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight across the top of the foot

Adjust the lacing pattern to a 'window' or 'parallel' lacing style to relieve pressure.

Slipping at the heel during runs

Utilize the 'runner's loop' or 'heel lock' lacing technique to secure the heel cup.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight construction minimizes fatigue
  • Breathable, durable seamless knitted material
  • Ortholite insole offers superior comfort for beginners
  • Easy to put on with integrated heel pull tab

Cons

  • Best suited for entry-level use rather than competitive racing
  • Limited to road and light path running surfaces
  • May require breaking in for optimal arch support

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best fit, ensure you are wearing the socks you intend to run in when trying the size 8 trainers for the first time. Use the lace system to adjust the tension across the bridge of the foot, ensuring the heel is locked against the collar.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Wipe away dirt with a damp cloth; avoid submerging in water or using harsh detergents.
  • Drying: Air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose the shoes to direct heat sources like radiators, as this may warp the midsole material.
  • Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent material degradation.
