FAQs

What type of runner is the Karrimor Duma 6 best suited for?

The Karrimor Duma 6 is best suited for beginner runners, those looking for a comfortable shoe for walking, or individuals participating in light fitness activities.

How do I clean my Duma 6 running shoes?

Clean them by wiping with a damp cloth and mild soap and water. Allow them to air dry naturally, away from heat sources.

Can these shoes be used for trail running?

They are suitable for light trail use due to the rubber pods on the outsole providing some traction. However, they are primarily designed for road running and general fitness.

What is the benefit of the seamless knitted upper?

The seamless knitted upper provides a comfortable, sock-like fit, reduces the risk of chafing and irritation, and offers durability.

Does the shoe have good cushioning?

Yes, it features a phylon midsole and an Ortholite insole, which provide lightweight cushioning and comfort for everyday wear and shorter runs.

What does the heel pull tab do?

The heel pull tab is a loop at the back of the shoe that helps you pull the trainers on and off more easily.

Are these shoes available in other colors or sizes?

Yes, the Karrimor Duma 6 series is available in various colors and sizes. Please check the product listings for specific availability.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or too loose

Adjust the lacing system. For a tighter fit, ensure all eyelets are snug. For a looser fit, ease the tension on the laces, particularly across the forefoot.

Slight discomfort during the first few wears

This is common as shoes break in. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase duration. Ensure socks are appropriate for running to prevent blisters.

Reduced traction on wet surfaces

The rubber pods offer good traction, but performance may be reduced on very wet or slippery surfaces. Exercise caution and reduce speed in such conditions.

Insole feels uncomfortable

The Ortholite insole is designed for comfort. If persistent discomfort occurs, consider if the fit is correct or if aftermarket insoles are needed, though this may alter the shoe's feel.

Care: To maintain the condition of your Karrimor Duma 6 running shoes:
