It features a balanced midsole, an approachable stack height, and an extended crash pad for stability, making it an excellent choice for varied fitness routines.

FAQs

Are the HOKA Solimar 2 shoes waterproof?

No, these trainers are made of breathable performance materials and are not waterproof.

Can I use these for heavy weightlifting?

While the Solimar 2 offers a stable base, it is a cushioned trainer and not a specialized flat-sole lifting shoe.

How do I know if I need a different size?

You should have about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe.

Are the insoles removable?

Yes, the stock insoles are removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics if required.

Is this shoe suitable for wide feet?

The Solimar 2 features an accommodating fit, but it is standard width; those with very wide feet may prefer to try them on for size first.

Troubleshooting

Heel slipping while walking or running

Try the 'runner's loop' or 'heel lock' lacing technique to increase tension around the ankle collar.

Midsole feeling stiff after long periods of storage

The foam may firm up in cold temperatures. Simply wearing them for 10-15 minutes allows your body heat to soften the compound.

Accumulation of debris in the tread

Use a dull pick or a specialized cleaning brush to gently remove stones or gravel from the outsole grooves to maintain traction.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile design suitable for varied daily activities
  • Improved durability thanks to extra rubber in high-wear zones
  • Secure and comfortable fit with an ultra-plush heel
  • Streamlined aesthetic that transitions well between settings
  • Balanced stability for multi-purpose use

Cons

  • Not intended for specialized long-distance marathon racing
  • Less maximalist cushioning compared to HOKA's flagship running lines
  • Limited to neutral support patterns

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your HOKA Solimar 2 trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:

  1. Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, wear them for shorter durations during your first few days to allow the foam to adapt to your foot shape.
  2. Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush after use. If they get wet or muddy, clean them with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid putting them in the washing machine or dryer, as high heat can damage the midsole foam and adhesive components.
  3. Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Exposure to extreme heat or damp conditions can compromise the materials over time.
  4. Insole Care: If you use custom orthotics, ensure you remove the factory-fitted insole before inserting your own to maintain the correct internal volume.
