FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for road running?
While primarily designed for off-road and trail running, the RUNFALCON 5 TR can certainly handle mixed-terrain runs that include sections of road. However, their outsole is optimized for grip on uneven surfaces, so for purely road running, a dedicated road running shoe might offer a smoother experience.
What does 'water-repellent' mean?
Water-repellent means the upper material has been treated to resist water penetration from splashes and light rain, causing water to bead up and roll off. It's not fully waterproof, so water will eventually seep through in heavy downpours or when submerged.
How do I clean my RUNFALCON 5 TR shoes?
Allow any mud to dry and then gently brush it off. For general cleaning, wipe the upper with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Avoid using harsh cleaners or putting them in a washing machine, as this can damage the materials and protective coatings.
What is Cloudfoam cushioning?
Cloudfoam is a type of EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate) foam used in adidas midsoles. It's engineered to provide soft, responsive cushioning for exceptional comfort and impact absorption during your runs.
What kind of terrain are these shoes best for?
These shoes are best suited for park trails, gravel paths, and rough, non-technical terrain. The Adiwear outsole provides excellent grip for these varied off-road conditions.
Do these shoes come in other sizes or colors?
Yes, the adidas RUNFALCON 5 TR series is available in a variety of sizes and color combinations. Please check the product listings for other available options.
Troubleshooting
My feet feel damp after running through wet grass or light rain.
The RUNFALCON 5 TR features a water-repellent upper, which is designed to protect against splashes and light moisture, not to be fully waterproof. For heavy rain or deep puddles, water may eventually penetrate. Consider waterproof socks for added protection in very wet conditions.
I'm experiencing less grip than expected on some trails.
The Adiwear outsole offers optimal traction on typical park trails and rough terrain. However, extremely muddy, icy, or highly technical rocky surfaces may require shoes with more aggressive lug patterns or specialized outsoles. Check the wear on your outsole; worn treads will reduce grip.
The shoes feel a bit heavy during my runs.
These shoes are built with durability and cushioning for off-road protection, which can add some weight (301g for UK 8.5). If you prioritize lightweight speed over protection for certain runs, you might consider a different shoe model specifically designed for speed, or reserve these for longer, more rugged trail efforts.
My feet feel uncomfortable or I'm getting blisters.
Ensure you have the correct shoe size and width. Experiment with different lacing techniques to find a snug yet comfortable fit. Also, the type of socks you wear can significantly impact comfort; moisture-wicking running socks are recommended. Give the shoes a short break-in period if they are new.
Pros and Cons

- Excellent Off-Road Traction: The Adiwear outsole delivers reliable grip on park trails and rough surfaces.
- Splash Protection: Water-repellent upper keeps feet drier in damp conditions.
- Comfortable Cushioning: Cloudfoam midsole ensures comfort during longer runs.
- Durable Design: Built to withstand the demands of trail running with features like a mudguard and robust outsole.
- Enhanced Visibility: Reflective details contribute to safer running in low light.
Cons
- Water-Repellent, Not Waterproof: Will not keep feet completely dry in heavy rain or deep puddles.
- Weight: At 301 g (size UK 8.5), they might feel a bit heavy for speed-focused runners compared to lighter road shoes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Getting started with your RUNFALCON 5 TR shoes is straightforward:
- Lace Up: Use the traditional lace closure system to secure the shoes firmly but comfortably on your feet. Adjust the laces to achieve a snug fit that prevents your foot from sliding inside the shoe without causing pressure points.
- Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, allow for a short break-in period (a few shorter runs) to fully adapt to the shoe's fit and feel.
Compatibility
- Terrain: Best suited for park trails, gravel paths, and rough non-technical terrain. They can also be used on roads for mixed-terrain runs.
- User: Designed for adult male runners seeking comfort, traction, and splash protection on off-road routes.
- Sizing: This specific model is UK 13 (Male, Adult). Ensure you select the correct size for optimal performance and comfort.
Care Instructions
Proper care will extend the life and performance of your running shoes:
- Cleaning the Upper: For mud and dirt, allow it to dry, then gently brush off with a soft brush. For general cleaning, wipe the water-repellent mesh upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, remove insoles and stuff with newspaper to absorb moisture. Air dry at room temperature; avoid direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can damage materials.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
- Avoid Machine Washing: Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the shoe's structure, cushioning, and water-repellent properties.
