FAQs

Are the HOKA Solimar 2 shoes good for running?

They are designed as versatile daily trainers for light activity and lifestyle use. While they can handle short, casual jogs, they are not intended for serious distance running.

Can I remove the insoles?

Yes, the insoles are removable, making them compatible with most third-party orthotics.

How should I clean the Mellow Lilac colorway?

Use a gentle, non-abrasive soap and a microfiber cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals that may cause discoloration.

Do these fit true to size?

The Solimar 2 is designed with an accommodating fit, which many users find to be true to size. If you prefer a wider fit, consider sizing up by a half size.

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The updated silhouette is designed to be more accommodating than previous versions, providing a comfortable fit for a wider variety of foot shapes.

Troubleshooting

Heel slippage

Try the 'runner's loop' or 'lace lock' lacing technique to secure the ankle more firmly against the plush heel padding.

Midsole feels damp after cleaning

Remove the insole and allow the shoe to air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources.

Outer fabric staining

Use a specialized fabric cleaner intended for athletic mesh; test on a small, inconspicuous area first.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile design transitions easily from street to gym
  • Enhanced durability in high-wear rubber zones
  • Plush collar provides excellent heel comfort
  • Balanced cushioning supports long periods of standing or walking

Cons

  • Not intended for high-intensity or long-distance running
  • Limited to lifestyle and light training applications
  • May be too soft for users requiring high-stability arch support

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Solimar 2 trainers maintain their comfort and aesthetic, follow these guidelines:

  1. Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, wear them for shorter sessions for the first two days to allow the upper to adapt to your foot shape.
  2. Cleaning: Remove surface dirt using a soft-bristled brush. For deeper cleaning, wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can damage the midsole foam.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent premature material degradation of the synthetic upper.
  4. Compatibility: These are standard trainer builds. If you use custom orthotics, the factory insole is removable, though check the fit to ensure the plush heel collar does not interfere with your specific inserts.
