Ulysses Running Shoes are born following the USM (United States Men (sizing Chart). Our size mark and box sticker represent the measurement for MEN and WOMEN.

If you're unsure which size you wear in our footwear or apparel, each product page has a size chart and fit recommendation. On all our Models models, our standard recommendation is half size bigger than your everyday shoe size. The size mark and stickers are also representing the length in millimeters, so you can also measure your foot by standing barefoot with your heel against a wall, and then adding about 5 mm to your measured size for an indication of what size will work for you.

It depends on many factors, such as running style, weight, and the surface you run on. But generally, running shoes (not just Ulysses shoes) last up to 250-300 miles (approx. 402-482 km) depending on the model and materials used. For example, some of our styles, such as the MAIKOH, are designed for high-performance trail running, so naturally, their sole is not as hard as the one used on the HONI, so they won't have the same durability of them.

Ulysses Running shoes were designed specifically for running purposes, they are excellent for all-day comfort and can be used for walking, exploring, or mixed workouts. You can Contact Us to ask for advice about which shoe is the best for your needs!

Our last measured on USM sizes and C width, is based on scientific statistical studies using 3D foot scanning, aiming to better fit the ethnic groups of Europe and North America. Our last will ensure precise fit increased ground feeling and reduced chafing.

The closest fit we can think of is between a HOKA clifton and a BROOKS Adrenaline.

Ulysses Running Shoes soles are NOT slip-resistant. That materially usually used in safety boots will not perform well in light running shoes. Our shoes soles are designed with emphasis on traction, durability and overall performance, but we do not offer a nonslip model at this time.

Ulysses Running Shoes are engineered and designed using the best material to deliver long lasting performances.

We suggest not to machine wash you shoes because it might be convenient, but the high temperature and the continuous tumbling is the hardest process on all materials.

With a little TLC your shoes will last a long time! We suggest you:

1. Remove the shoelaces and the insoles, and clean and dry them separately

2. Brush the bottom of your shoes to remove as much mud and dirt as possible.

3. Gently use a damp cloth or brush to clean the uppers.

4. Rinse with warm water.

5. To better maintain shape stuff your shoes with newspaper. This helps them maintain shape and decreases drying time.

If you really have machine wash your shoes please remember the high temperature is the biggest enemy here so:

1. Remove the shoelaces

2. Remove the sock liner (not a requirement)

3. Place the shoes + laces in the washing machine

4. Add a very small amount of laundry detergent

5. Wash using cold water

6. Air dry away from direct sunlight

Run WILD!

Yes, we use top of the line partially recycled insole, but the fit is large enough for you to use several insoles. Our models are used by many podiatrists and physicians which are retrofitting our shoes with custom insoles.

Unfortunately NOT YET! But it is not a secret anymore our technical department is testing different sets of pants, shirts, tops, and other very exciting gear.

So stay tuned because soon in 2024 the gear collection will be lunched.
