FAQs

Can I use these for marathon training?

These are designed as high-quality daily trainers suitable for moderate distances and gym work. While they provide excellent comfort, marathon runners may prefer specific long-distance models.

Are these shoes machine washable?

No, it is highly recommended to clean these by hand. Machine washing can compromise the structural integrity of the upper and the Bounce foam.

What is the primary difference between Ultrarun 5 and other series?

The Ultrarun 5 is characterized by the integration of the Bounce 2.0 midsole, specifically tuned for energy return in a lightweight, breathable package.

Do I need to break these in?

The mesh upper is soft from the first wear, but it may take one or two short walks or jogs for the foam to fully contour to your specific foot shape.

Are these suitable for wide feet?

The Ultrarun 5 features a regular fit. If you typically require wide-width shoes, you may find the standard width restrictive.

Can the OrthoLite sockliner be replaced?

Yes, the sockliner is removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics if you require specific arch support.

Troubleshooting

Feeling pressure points on the top of the foot

Try adjusting the lacing technique, such as using a 'window' lacing method to relieve pressure on the area where you feel discomfort.

Insole sliding during exercise

Remove the insole, ensure the inside of the shoe is clean and dry, and reinsert it, pressing firmly from the heel forward.

Build-up of dirt in the mesh upper

Allow the dirt to dry completely before brushing it off with a soft, dry brush to avoid rubbing grime into the fabric fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Ultrarun 5 trainers last as long as possible, follow these guidelines. First, ensure you have the correct UK size, as a proper fit is crucial for preventing heel slip. For routine care, remove the OrthoLite sockliner after particularly sweaty workouts to allow it to air out separately. If the shoes become dirty, clean them by hand using a soft-bristled brush, mild soap, and lukewarm water; avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can damage the foam midsole and adhesive bonds. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
