Full details

It offers a balanced midsole and an ultra-plush heel for all-day comfort, though its streamlined design is optimized more for casual fitness and daily wear rather than high-performance technical trail running.

FAQs
Is the HOKA Solimar 2 suitable for long-distance running?
It is designed as a daily trainer for light activity and fitness. While comfortable, it is not optimized for high-mileage marathon training.
Does this shoe provide good arch support?
The Solimar 2 features HOKA's signature balanced cushion, which provides neutral support for most foot shapes.
Can I use these for lifting weights?
Yes, the balanced midsole offers enough stability for moderate weight lifting and gym movements.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the trainers are made with breathable materials that are not waterproof.
What is the best way to clean the outsoles?
Scrub the rubber outsoles with a stiff brush and water to remove debris and maintain grip.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on the mesh upper
Use a soft brush to gently sweep away dried mud, then follow up with a damp cloth.
Feeling of slipping inside the shoe
Check your lacing tension; use a runner's loop at the top eyelet to secure the heel.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your HOKA Solimar 2 trainers remain in top condition, follow these simple guidelines:
- Sizing: These are designed with an accommodating fit; ensure you measure your foot length accurately to select the correct UK size.
- Cleaning: Hand wash the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or putting them in a tumble dryer, as heat can warp the cushioning materials.
- Maintenance: Air dry them away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the rubber outsole and the upper fabrics.
