Product Information
Full details
The HOKA Rincon 5 is a versatile, lightweight road running trainer designed for adult athletes seeking a balance between high-speed tempo sessions and comfortable recovery runs. Engineered with a neutral platform to support your natural stride, these shoes offer excellent traction on tarmac surfaces, making them ideal for everything from park loops to race day. While they provide exceptional performance for daily mileage, users should note that the neutral design lacks specific stability features for those who require significant arch support or pronation correction.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathon training?
Yes, the Rincon 5 is designed for daily mileage and can handle the varied pace requirements of marathon training schedules.
Can I use these for trail running?
These trainers are engineered for tarmac and hard road surfaces; they lack the aggressive lugs required for technical trail terrain.
Do these provide arch support?
They feature a neutral platform. If you require specific arch support, they are compatible with most aftermarket insoles.
How often should I replace these trainers?
General wear usually occurs between 300 and 500 miles, depending on your running surface and individual weight.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, they are made with breathable materials intended to manage moisture rather than repel water.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
There should be roughly a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to account for foot expansion.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slipping or lack of lockdown
Try a 'runner’s loop' lacing technique to secure the heel more firmly and prevent internal foot movement.
Accumulation of dust or debris in the tread
Use a stiff-bristled brush to dislodge gravel or debris from the outsole grooves after every road run.
Odour buildup from training
Remove the insoles after runs to allow both the shoe and insert to dry thoroughly in a well-ventilated area.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your HOKA Rincon 5 trainers, proper care is essential. When you first receive your pair, ensure a comfortable fit with adequate room in the toe box, as swelling often occurs during long runs. For cleaning, remove surface dirt with a soft brush after your run and avoid submerging the shoes in water. Use a damp cloth with mild soap for localized cleaning. Always allow the trainers to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, to maintain the integrity of the foam midsole and upper materials. These shoes are fully compatible with standard aftermarket orthotics if additional arch support is required.
