FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for marathons?

The Ultrarun 5 is excellent for endurance training, but suitability for a full marathon depends on your specific arch support needs and cushioning preferences.

Can I use these for gym workouts?

While designed primarily for running, their stability and responsive cushioning make them suitable for light gym use, such as treadmill workouts or warm-ups.

How should I clean the mesh upper?

Use a soft-bristled brush or a damp cloth with mild detergent to gently scrub the mesh. Avoid soaking the shoes fully.

Do these shoes have a high arch support?

They feature a neutral design that provides standard arch support suitable for most foot types.

What is the midsole drop on this model?

The adidas Ultrarun 5 features a 10 mm midsole drop, which is standard for providing a smooth heel-to-toe transition.

Are they true to size?

Yes, they follow standard sizing, but it is always recommended to leave a thumb's width of space at the front for toe comfort during runs.

Troubleshooting

Foot feels too tight or restricted

Adjust the lacing pattern to be looser across the bridge of the foot or consider removing the insole if you use custom orthotics.

Shoes are retaining moisture/odour

Ensure you remove the OrthoLite sockliners after every run to allow for proper airflow and drying.

Sole is losing grip on surfaces

Check the Adiwear outsole for accumulated debris or small pebbles lodged in the tread patterns; clear these out to restore full traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longest lifespan for your adidas Ultrarun 5 trainers, use a standard lace-tightening method that secures the midfoot without restricting circulation. Compatibility is best with athletic socks made from moisture-wicking synthetic materials. For maintenance, remove the sockliners after particularly sweaty runs to allow them to air dry separately from the shoes. If the trainers become dirty, clean them by wiping the mesh with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid putting them in a washing machine, as the heat and agitation can degrade the cushioning and adhesive bonds.
