FAQs

Are the Karrimor Duma 6 suitable for marathon training?

The Karrimor Duma 6 are best suited for beginner to intermediate runners and daily training. For high-mileage marathon training, you might consider a shoe with more advanced cushioning and support features.

How do I clean the knitted upper?

Gently wipe the knitted upper with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a small amount of mild soap and water, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. Allow to air dry.

What is the main benefit of the Ortholite insole?

The Ortholite insole provides enhanced, long-lasting cushioning and breathability, contributing to overall comfort during wear and helping to manage moisture.

Can I wear these shoes for trail running?

While the rubber pods offer some grip, these shoes are primarily designed for road running, gym use, and casual wear. For technical trail running, specialized trail shoes with aggressive outsoles are recommended.

What size foot UK do these shoes fit?

The specific pair described is a UK size 8. The Karrimor Duma 6 series is available in a range of adult UK sizes.

How durable is the Phylon midsole?

The Phylon midsole offers good lightweight cushioning and shock absorption for its intended use. Its durability is suitable for daily runs and general training. For very high mileage, midsole compression may occur over time.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure correct sizing. Try wearing thicker socks or using insoles for added cushioning. Break in the shoes gradually.

Reduced grip

Clean the outsole rubber pods to remove accumulated dirt or debris that may be affecting traction.

Upper material feels stiff

The seamless knitted upper may require a brief break-in period. Wear them for shorter durations initially.

Midsole feels less responsive

The Phylon midsole is designed for moderate cushioning. For higher impact needs, consider shoes with more advanced midsole technologies. Ensure no debris is lodged in the sole.
