FAQs
What is the heel-to-toe drop of the Ultrarun 5?
The Ultrarun 5 has a 10 mm drop, with a 34 mm heel and 24 mm forefoot.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The mesh upper offers some flexibility, but the shoe is built on a standard athletic last. If you have very wide feet, you may want to try a half-size larger for extra room.
Can I put the OrthoLite insoles in the washing machine?
It is recommended to remove the insoles and hand wash them with mild detergent to preserve their structural integrity.
Are these suitable for marathon training?
While durable enough for base mileage, they are categorized as general trainers and may not provide the specialized propulsive features found in dedicated racing shoes.
What percentage of recycled material is used?
The Ultrarun 5 is made with at least 20% recycled content.
Does the shoe provide arch support?
This is a neutral shoe designed for runners with standard arch mechanics. It does not contain aggressive medial posting for severe overpronation.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slipping inside the shoe
Adjust the laces using the runner's loop or heel lock method to secure the midfoot and heel more effectively.
Midsole foam feels compressed prematurely
Rotate your footwear to allow the foam to fully recover its shape between runs, which usually takes 24 hours.
Difficulty keeping the shoes clean
Apply a water-repellent spray intended for athletic mesh to help repel mud and dust from the upper surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longest lifespan for your Ultrarun 5 shoes, follow these guidelines:
- Breaking In: Wear the shoes for short intervals or walking before attempting long-distance runs to allow the mesh upper and footbed to adapt to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush. Use a damp cloth with mild soap to clean the upper. Do not machine wash, as this can damage the foam midsole integrity.
- Drying: Air dry only. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or hair dryers, which can cause the materials to warp or degrade prematurely.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material fading and breakdown.
