Full details

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?
The Runfalcon 5 are designed for value and comfort across various activities, including shorter to moderate runs and trail use. For marathon distances, especially on roads, specialized marathon shoes with different cushioning and support might be more appropriate.
How do I determine my UK shoe size?
Refer to a standard UK shoe size conversion chart, or try on the shoes in person if possible. The product information indicates this model is a UK size 11.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Hand washing with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method to preserve the materials and structure.
What is the difference between Cloudfoam and other adidas cushioning technologies?
Cloudfoam is designed for immediate step-in comfort and soft cushioning, ideal for everyday wear and lighter athletic activities. Other technologies might offer more specialized support or energy return for performance-focused running.
How long does the water-repellent feature typically last?
The duration of the water-repellent treatment can vary based on usage and care. Regular cleaning and avoiding harsh detergents can help maintain its effectiveness. Re-application of suitable waterproofing sprays might be necessary over time.
Are these shoes good for everyday casual wear?
Yes, the Runfalcon 5 trainers offer comfort and a sporty aesthetic, making them suitable for everyday casual wear in addition to athletic activities.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and try re-lacing them with a different pattern. If still tight, consider if the size is appropriate or if the break-in period is needed.
Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces
Ensure the Adiwear outsole is clean from mud or debris. While water-repellent, extreme wet conditions may still affect grip. Use with caution on very slick surfaces.
Discomfort during runs
Verify that the Ortholite sockliner is properly positioned. Ensure laces are not over-tightened. If discomfort persists, the shoe may not be the best fit for your foot type or running style.
