FAQs
Is the adidas Ultrarun 5 suitable for wide feet?
The Ultrarun 5 features a regular fit. While the mesh upper has some natural stretch, those with significantly wide feet may want to consider sizing up by half a size.
Can I remove the insoles?
Yes, the OrthoLite sockliner is removable if you need to use custom orthotic inserts.
How long do the shoes last?
Depending on your running surface and weekly mileage, the cushioning and outsole typically maintain their performance characteristics for 300 to 500 miles.
Are these shoes machine washable?
It is not recommended to machine wash your running shoes, as it can damage the structural integrity and the adhesive materials used in the midsole.
What is the heel-to-toe drop?
The Ultrarun 5 has a 10mm drop, with a 35mm heel and 25mm forefoot.
Does this shoe contain recycled materials?
Yes, this product is constructed with at least 20% recycled content to help reduce environmental impact.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight across the midfoot
Adjust the lace tension starting from the bottom eyelets, loosening the lower laces to allow more volume.
Insole bunching up
Remove the OrthoLite sockliner, clear any debris from the footbed, and reinsert it flat.
Slipping on wet surfaces
Ensure the Adiwear outsole is free of caked-on mud or debris, as tread blockage can significantly reduce grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your adidas Ultrarun 5, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in: Wear the shoes for short walking sessions before attempting long-distance runs to allow the foam to adapt to your foot.
- Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap; avoid submerging in water or using a washing machine, as this can degrade the internal materials.
- Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the rubber outsole and mesh fabric from drying out or discoloring.
