FAQs
Can I use these for marathon running?
While durable and comfortable, these are generally optimized for daily training and shorter-to-medium distances rather than elite marathon racing.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the OrthoLite sockliner can be removed if you need to insert your own custom orthotics.
What is the weight of the shoe?
The shoe weighs approximately 322.5 grams.
How should I clean the mesh upper?
Use a soft brush or a cloth dipped in cold water with a tiny amount of mild detergent, then air dry.
Are these suitable for flat feet?
The 10 mm drop and stable construction provide good general support, but consult with a podiatrist if you have specific corrective needs.
What does the 10 mm drop mean?
It refers to the height difference between the heel and the forefoot, which helps with heel-strike transition and overall stability.
Troubleshooting
Foot slipping inside the shoe during runs
Try a 'runner's loop' lacing technique to better secure the heel.
Excessive moisture build-up
Ensure the OrthoLite sockliner is dry and consider wearing moisture-wicking synthetic socks.
Soles losing traction on slick surfaces
Wipe the Adiwear outsole with a damp cloth to remove accumulated dust or debris.
Pros and Cons
Pros

- Excellent breathability due to mesh upper construction

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your ULTRARUN 5 trainers maintain their performance, follow these guidelines:
Setup: Ensure you have the correct UK size for your foot shape. Use the lacing system to achieve a secure midfoot lock while leaving enough room in the toe box for natural splay.
Compatibility: These shoes are ideal for road running, fitness training, and daily walking on paved surfaces.
Care Instructions:
- Remove surface dirt with a soft brush after use.
- If wet, stuff the shoes with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain shape while drying.
- Keep away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can degrade the midsole foam.
- For a deeper clean, remove the OrthoLite sockliner and hand-wash in cold water with mild soap.
