Adidas Duramo 10: 100 Mile REVIEW 

No problem Andy, thanks for watching!

Nice! You won’t go wrong for that price….👍🏻

I have to agree Roberto. These are my favourite running shoe I’ve got, despite the price. Thanks for watching! I’ll do a 250 mile update when I get there….

I bought them discount like yourself and wasn’t sure they would be any good for running, but they are surprisingly good 👍🏻 enjoy!

I agree, my favourite shoes of this year so far! Thanks for the support…👍🏻

Yes these are great budget daily trainers….

I would agree Ian. Outsole is up there with best I have had, but yes the upper is definitely the downfall of the shoe…..

They fit well and are true to size for me. The Duramo 10 does come in wide (E) sizes so I’d probably look at those if that’s what you usually get. Thanks for watching!

I had the original Duramo size 10. I wore those for three years and ran consistently in them. They were a snug fit and the sides of my feet slightly bulged. I could run and walk in them ok but my feet tended to swell and hurt a bit once I started going to distances past 15 km when running. I've never tried these new Duramo in size 10 so I just opted to buy the size 10 wide on Amazon. My foot width is well past four inches but under 4 and a half inches. A bunch of size charts online stated that I should be wearing wide shoes. After trying these, I found that my foot doesn't bulge over the sole and fits perfectly all the way around. The only minor complaint is that the "vamp" or the space above the foot is a bit bigger/noticeable. I'm so used to feeling the top of my shoe that I'm wondering if it's supposed to be like that or if I've been wearing the wrong shoe size. I jogged twice for about 10 km with tube socks and my feet weren't hurting. I occasionally noticed and felt the space above my feet and it's not too big of a deal. I think that feeling was a combination of the plastic/mesh they used. It's more rigid than the original Duramo. Having wide feet has it's ups and downs but I went with duramo again because they're affordable and simple. Minor inconvenience of having a little more space above the foot > foot buldging slightly over the sides of the sole if I go with just a size 10. I've never tried size 10 in these new duramo but I'm pretty sure that same bulge I had with the original would carry over. I'm hoping that this wide fit fixes my swelling issue when I try to go past 15-20 km. Since you have extra wide feet, you'll probably fit fine.

Great insight. I think a minor bulge over the side is common in some shoes, but if you were experiencing pain and swelling maybe wide fit is best for you. Thanks for informative comment…..👍🏻

I’ve covered a half marathon in these with no issues. Enjoyable to run in and rolls along nicely. I weigh 175 so shouldn’t be an issue. Happy running!

@@LARKRunningUK thanks for the response..really appreciate it..

I’ve never worn that shoe unfortunately. My wife loves them though (Nike Rev 6) for walking comfort, but she hasn’t ran in them. Maybe try both on in store, if possible, and see which you prefer….

I had both duramo 10 and rev 6. Duramo 10 feels much more comfortable. Rev 6 is a bit narrow. Duramo 10 also looks high quality and has some cool colourways.

@@LARKRunningUK Unfortunately, there's no Rev 6 my size available in the store we have, so I was thinking of ordering online. But there was the Duramo 10.

Both I believe are pretty good entry shoes…..you won’t go far wrong with either at this price point

I’ve only run in them, but they are good for that. Not sure about combat 😆

I’ve never ran in the Downshifter but I really like the Duramo. It’s a really solid running shoe, regardless of price…..

@@LARKRunningUK duramo 10 or duramo sl ,which is better? your thoughts on lightmotion midsole?

@59vijaiyaaravindthsr39 never ran in the SL but it looks like a bigger stack so better for longer runs. I’m thinking of getting it at the end of the year when reduced. Light motion is the budget foam but I really get on with it 👍🏻

They are okay. I use them predominantly for easy/recovery runs but you can get up to speed in them. Nice roll through and they feel lighter than they are. Thanks for watching!

@@LARKRunningUK thanks for advice bro

It’s made out of recycled plastic and has a fairly coarse feel to it. Very durable, it will definitely last the duration of the life of the shoe. It is water resistant and doesn’t take in water as it isn’t fabric. Thanks for watching!

Thank you

Depends on pace. Both are quite similar but for faster runs I’d probably go for the EQ21. I normally use my Duramo for easy/recovery runs, but it can do some faster stuff…..

@@LARKRunningUK wow thanks for fast reply.. Thank yo u again fro your suggestion. I feel i want to buy this EQ21. I run 4-8km, 3 times per week

You won’t go far wrong with either really. You will likely enjoy either of them for that type of running…..

@@LARKRunningUK thanks Mr Lark, that's really helpful. U made me easier to make a decision and i am happy for my chosen. Thanks for all tips through your videos. It give me lot of motivations to keep running.

@mangake5734 no problem! Anytime…..

The Duramo 10 is better for running….thanks for watching!

Hi Sam, yes the fit was true to size for me. Sizing was perfect not too long like some can be….

Hi, yes a solid all round trainer. Nice and comfortable but not too soft so would be a good option for gym work 👍🏻

Yes same for me. I double knot them and no issues normally. They upper is the worst bit of the shoe (recycled materials)….

I’d go for the Duramo, but both are similar….

Yeh, it’s a pretty comfortable shoe all round….perfect for the gym

@@LARKRunningUK Are there better shoes than Nike or Puma for the same price value?

That depends on opinion. If your paying the same price they will arguably be the same quality. All 3 brands offer decent budget trainers…

@@LARKRunningUK Can I have the names of similar shoes from Puma or Nike?🌹

Puma- Flyer Flex and Aviator Profoam. Nike- Renew Run, Revolution, Vomero. These are comparable budget running shoes which can be used for gym etc.

There isn’t much support as it’s a budget shoe, so not sure. If you need arch support you could always put a better insole in……thanks for watching!

Yes my UK size 11 is 349g or 12.3oz. I will say that they don’t feel that heavy when on foot though….thanks for watching!

@@LARKRunningUK My size is uk 8 Its the same weight i got if i buy this shoe or heavy one

The UK size 8 will be lighter as it’s a smaller shoe. The weights published by brands are usually UK size 7….

The SL is more midsole so I’d assume better for longer runs. I might buy a pair at the end of the year!

I’ve used it for various distances and they are really easy to run in. It isn’t lightweight, my UK size 11 is 359g/12.3oz but I find they feel much lighter than that.

@@LARKRunningUK I'm looking for a lightweight+ comfortable shoes, I'm preparing for an event.

Adidas duramo 10 vs New balance 520v7 which one do you think is best?

I’d personally go with the Duramo. I have the NB 680v7 and I like the Duramo more, especially for the shorter distances. The NB is better for longer runs…..

@@LARKRunningUK okay

I assume you mean stack height? Mine measure 24mm in forefoot and 33mm in heel, giving a 9mm drop. Those measurements are approx. Thanks for watching…..

@@LARKRunningUK yea, how many cm my height will increase? 3 cm?

About that. Never measured but approx that 👍🏻

7.30 per mile? If you can run that pace already over that distance, then yes, this shoe is pretty good at rolling along and is comfortable for up to HM…..

@@LARKRunningUK no, 7.30min/ 1 kilometer

Then yes it’s an even better shoe at that pace. I use it mostly for easy/recovery runs and it’s midsole is great at looking after the legs…
