FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathons?
The Ultrarun 5 is excellent for endurance training and moderate distances; its suitability for a full marathon depends on personal preference for cushioning levels.

The weight is approximately 324g based on a UK size 8.5.
Does this shoe provide arch support?
The shoe is designed for neutral runners. It provides standard support but does not include specialized orthotics for severe overpronation.
What is the midsole drop?
The Ultrarun 5 features a 10mm drop, with a 35mm heel height and 25mm forefoot height.
Does the shoe contain recycled materials?
Yes, this product is constructed with at least 20% recycled materials as part of an effort to reduce environmental waste.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight after a long run
Feet naturally swell during exercise; try loosening the laces slightly to accommodate the change.
Outer sole shows premature wear
Ensure you are using the shoes primarily on suitable road or flat track surfaces rather than abrasive concrete or rugged trails.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Ultrarun 5 trainers, follow these maintenance tips:
- Fitting: Ensure a secure fit with the lace closure system. The shoe fits true to size, but verify your specific UK size for optimal lockdown.
- Cleaning: Remove excess dirt after each run using a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap; avoid soaking the materials.
- Drying: Air dry naturally at room temperature. Never place shoes near direct heat sources like radiators, as this can damage the midsole foam and adhesive.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation.
