FAQs

Are these trainers true to size?

The Adistar Control 5 generally fits standard for the stated UK 5.5 size, but we recommend wearing your typical athletic sock thickness when trying them on.

Can I use these for long-distance running?

While these feature performance-inspired cushioning, they are updated as lifestyle trainers; they are best suited for walking and casual activities rather than distance running.

How do I clean the mesh material?

Use a soft brush or cloth with a mixture of water and gentle soap, then dab the area and let it air dry completely.

Are the metallic silver details prone to peeling?

The metallic overlays are designed for durability, but avoid exposing them to abrasive surfaces or harsh cleaning solvents to keep the finish intact.

What is the primary material used in the upper?

The upper is constructed from an open mesh material with synthetic leather-like overlays for added structure.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt on metallic or synthetic parts

Gently wipe with a damp microfiber cloth; avoid heavy scrubbing which may degrade the metallic finish.

Unpleasant odor after frequent wear

Remove the insoles to air out separately and use a shoe deodorizer spray safe for synthetic fabrics.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Distinctive retro Y2K style aesthetic
  • Lightweight and breathable materials
  • Reliable forefoot cushioning
  • Stable support for daily activities

Cons

  • Primarily designed for lifestyle/casual use rather than elite performance
  • Metallic finishes may show scuffs more easily
  • Limited to specific size availability for some variants

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your trainers last, it is recommended to keep them away from harsh cleaning chemicals. Spot clean the mesh upper with a mild detergent and a soft cloth to avoid damaging the synthetic layers. Ensure the shoes are air-dried away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the EVA foam. When fitting, ensure you are wearing the appropriate athletic socks to match the UK 5.5 sizing for an optimal, secure fit.
