FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the adidas Ultrarun 5 fits true to size for standard adult feet.
Can I use these for trail running?
These trainers are designed for asphalt and pavement; they lack the aggressive lugs required for safe trail running.
How often should I replace them?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running style and surface conditions.
Are they machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the adhesive and cushioning technology. Stick to hand cleaning with a damp cloth.
What is the weight of the shoe?
The Ultrarun 5 is designed as a comfort-focused daily trainer, prioritizing cushioning over ultra-lightweight racing performance.
Troubleshooting
Foot slipping inside the shoe
Try the 'runner's loop' lacing technique to secure the heel area more firmly.
Ortholite insole shifting
Remove the insole, clean the cavity beneath, and ensure it is placed perfectly flat before reinserting.
Visible dust on fabric
Use a soft-bristled brush or a vacuum attachment on a low setting to remove debris from the upper.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Ultrarun 5 trainers remain in peak condition, follow these steps:
- Initial Fit: Ensure the laces are adjusted to lock your midfoot in place without being overly tight.
- Break-in Period: While these shoes feel comfortable out of the box, allow 2-3 short walks before attempting your longest runs.
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush after each run. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap. Avoid soaking the shoes in water or using a washing machine, as this can degrade the foam components.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the cushioning materials and avoid color fading.
