FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for high-intensity running?

No, the Adistar Control 5 is designed as a lifestyle trainer for casual, everyday activity rather than specialized athletic training.

Does the strap fit securely for all foot shapes?

The adhesive strap is quite versatile, though it may provide a tighter fit for those with very high arches compared to a traditional lace-up system.

How do I determine my size for this model?

The Adistar Control 5 follows standard UK sizing. We recommend choosing your usual trainer size for the best fit.

Can I replace the adhesive straps?

The straps are integrated into the shoe design. If the strap adhesive fails, it is recommended to clean the hooks, but they are not designed to be replaced by the consumer.

Are these shoes water-resistant?

The trainers are made from standard materials that are not waterproof. They are best suited for dry conditions or light incidental moisture.

Troubleshooting

The adhesive strap is not sticking firmly

Check the underside of the strap for accumulated lint or dust. Use a piece of tape or a soft brush to clear the surface of the hook-and-loop material.

Material shows scuffs or dirt marks

Use a mild soap solution and a soft cloth to gently spot clean the affected area, then air dry away from heat sources.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Adistar Control 5 trainers remain in top condition, follow these simple care guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe down the synthetic upper with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.
  2. Strap Maintenance: Keep the adhesive straps free of lint and debris to ensure they maintain a strong grip over time.
  3. Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the silver and grey colorways.
  4. Compatibility: While these are casual trainers, ensure you select the appropriate UK size to match your foot anatomy as the low-profile design fits snugly around the bridge of the foot.
