FAQs

Is the HOKA Solimar 2 good for running?

Yes, it is designed for daily training and light running, offering a balanced platform for various levels.

Can I use these for heavy lifting in the gym?

While the shoe is stable, it is primarily a trainer; it may be less rigid than a dedicated weightlifting shoe.

How do I determine the correct size?

HOKA trainers generally run true to size, but we recommend measuring your feet while wearing the socks you intend to use.

Are the insoles removable?

Yes, the insoles in the Solimar 2 are removable to allow for the insertion of custom orthotics.

How should I clean my HOKA shoes?

Hand wash with a damp cloth and mild soap. Never submerge in water or put them in the dryer.

Is this model suitable for wide feet?

The Solimar 2 features an 'accommodating fit,' which is designed to be more inclusive than previous versions, but individual preference varies.

Troubleshooting

Feeling of slipping or instability in the heel

Ensure the laces are tightened properly around the eyelets and consider using the top 'runner's loop' to secure the heel fit.

Outer sole showing premature wear

Check your gait for excessive dragging; if the wear is localized, consult a professional to ensure your shoe choice matches your foot strike.

Midsole feeling less cushioned over time

Foam compression is a natural part of shoe aging. Once the foam loses its bounce, it is time to rotate the pair out of high-intensity training.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile design for studio-to-street use
  • Enhanced durability with extra outsole rubber
  • Comfortable fit suitable for daily wear
  • Balanced cushioning for varied activities

Cons

  • Less suited for technical trail running
  • Not intended for elite high-mileage marathon racing
  • Limited to neutral support profiles

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Solimar 2 trainers, avoid machine washing or drying, as these processes can break down the adhesives and midsole foam. If the shoes become dirty, gently wipe the upper with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators. For optimal fit, ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks when trying on the shoes for the first time. The accommodating fit is designed to work with standard athletic socks; if you prefer extra arch support, the insoles are removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics.
