FAQs
What type of trail running is the Xodus Ultra 4 best suited for?
The Xodus Ultra 4 is ideal for long-distance trail running, including ultramarathons, and excels on technical terrain, rocky paths, and varied surfaces due to its maximum cushioning and superior grip.
How does the cushioning system work?
It features PWRRUN PB foam directly underfoot for a soft, bouncy feel, complemented by a supportive PWRRUN Frame chassis that provides durability and protection.
Is this shoe suitable for road running?
While it offers substantial cushioning, the Xodus Ultra 4 is specifically designed for trails. Its aggressive outsole may feel less efficient and wear down faster on pavement.
What is the lug height on the outsole?
The lug height on the Vibram Mega-Grip outsole is 4mm, providing excellent traction on trail surfaces.
What is the heel-to-toe drop?
The heel-to-toe drop is 6mm (36mm in the heel and 30mm in the forefoot).
Does this shoe contain recycled materials?
Yes, this model is vegan and contains recycled materials, contributing to sustainability.
How do I attach gaiters?
The shoe features a D-ring on the front of the laces. Simply loop your gaiter strap through this ring for a secure attachment.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or too loose
Adjust the lacing system to find a secure, comfortable fit. Ensure your socks are of appropriate thickness. If the fit is consistently poor, consider trying a different size.
Reduced grip on wet surfaces
The Vibram Mega-Grip outsole provides excellent traction, but extremely slick surfaces can still pose challenges. Ensure the outsole is clean of mud and debris, as this can affect grip.
Discomfort on long runs
While designed for maximum cushioning, ensure the shoe is broken in properly. If discomfort persists, it may be that the level of cushioning or drop does not suit your biomechanics. Consult with a running specialist if needed.
Debris entering the shoe
Utilize the D-ring to attach compatible gaiters. Ensure the laces are tied securely to minimize gaps.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These shoes are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure they fit snugly but comfortably before your first run. For enhanced protection against debris, attach compatible gaiters to the D-ring located at the base of the laces.
Compatibility: The Saucony Xodus Ultra 4 is compatible with most standard trail running gaiters that use a D-ring attachment system. Sizing is standard for athletic footwear; refer to the Saucony size chart for precise fitting.
Care: To clean your Xodus Ultra 4 trainers, remove excess dirt with a brush. Hand wash with cool water and mild soap. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the shoe's materials and structure. Allow them to air dry completely, away from direct heat or sunlight.
