FAQs
What is the heel-to-forefoot drop of the Adizero SL2?
The Adizero SL2 has a heel-to-forefoot drop of 9mm, with 36mm in the heel and 27mm in the forefoot.
Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?
While versatile for training, they are best suited for daily runs and shorter to mid-distance races. For full marathons, runners seeking maximum cushioning or stability might prefer a different model.
How should I clean my Adizero SL2 trainers?
Clean them with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing. Always air dry them away from direct heat.
What type of runner is this shoe best for?
These trainers are ideal for neutral runners who need a lightweight, responsive shoe for daily training, tempo runs, and interval workouts.
Can I use these for trail running?
These shoes are primarily designed for road running. The outsole may not provide adequate grip or protection for technical trail surfaces.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The fit should be snug but not constricting.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight
Loosen the laces, particularly around the midfoot, and try lacing them differently. Ensure you are using the correct sock thickness.
Slipping in the heel
Try a 'heel lock' lacing technique (using the extra eyelets) or ensure the laces are tied securely.
Reduced cushioning feel over time
Running shoes naturally lose some cushioning over mileage. If significantly degraded, consider replacement. Ensure you are not exceeding the recommended mileage.
Traction is poor on wet surfaces
The outsole is designed for general use; performance on extremely wet or slick surfaces may vary. Clean the outsole periodically to remove debris that could affect grip.
