FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for flat feet?
The Ultrarun 5 is a neutral running shoe. While they offer good general support, those with flat feet might consider adding custom orthotic insoles for additional arch support.
Can I use these for gym workouts?
Yes, the responsive nature of the Bounce 2.0 midsole makes them suitable for a wide range of gym activities, including light weightlifting and cardio.
How do I choose the right size?
These shoes follow standard UK sizing for adults. We recommend choosing your usual size for a regular, comfortable fit.
Are these waterproof?
No, the mesh upper is designed for maximum breathability rather than water resistance. They will soak through in heavy rain.
How often should I replace them?
Generally, running shoes lose their primary cushioning properties after 300 to 500 miles of use, depending on your running surface and weight.
Can I remove the insoles?
Yes, the OrthoLite sockliners are removable, which is convenient if you prefer to use your own specialized inserts.
Troubleshooting
Feeling tightness in the midfoot
Try adjusting the lacing pattern to a 'window' lacing style, which relieves pressure on the top of the foot.
Slipping at the heel
Use the extra eyelet at the top of the shoe to create a 'runner's loop' or heel lock to secure the ankle.
Excessive moisture or odour
Remove the OrthoLite sockliner after each use and let it air dry separately in a well-ventilated area.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Ultrarun 5 trainers last as long as possible, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: Wear the shoes for short periods around the house before taking them on long-distance runs to allow the foam to adapt to your foot.
- Cleaning: Hand wash the shoes using a soft brush and mild soap. Avoid putting them in the washing machine or dryer, as the heat can degrade the midsole adhesive and mesh fibers.
- Storage: Always store in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to prevent premature material aging or colour fading.
- Rotation: If running daily, consider alternating with another pair to allow the foam compression to fully recover between sessions.
