Product Information
Full details
The adidas Adistar 5 Trainers are designed for adult female runners seeking a plush, protective ride for daily training across various distances. By combining Dreamstrike foam with specialized rocker geometry, these shoes provide a stable, cushioned experience that promotes smooth transitions and efficient energy return. While these trainers excel at impact protection, they may feel slightly bulkier compared to lightweight racing flats due to their heavy focus on supportive comfort.

FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the adidas Adistar 5 generally fits true to size for most runners, but we recommend trying them on with the socks you typically use for running.
Can I use these for speed work?
While the shoe is designed for comfort and distance, the rocker geometry can assist with a turnover, but it is primarily intended for steady training rather than explosive track sprints.
How often should I replace these trainers?
It is generally recommended to replace running shoes every 400–500 miles, depending on your running surface and gait mechanics.
Is the upper material breathable?
Yes, the trainer features an engineered mesh construction that provides high breathability to keep feet cool during workouts.
Are these suitable for orthotics?
The insoles are removable, making the shoes generally compatible with most standard orthotic inserts.
Troubleshooting
Heel slippage
Try the 'runner's loop' lacing technique using the additional eyelet at the top of the shoe to tighten the collar around your ankle.
Pressure on the midfoot
Loosen the lacing across the midfoot section and ensure the internal fit panel is lying flat against the top of your foot before tying.
Pros and Cons

- The plush foam might lack the 'snap' desired for high-speed intervals
- All-white design requires regular cleaning to maintain appearance
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best experience, start by wearing the shoes for shorter walks to allow the Dreamstrike foam to adapt to your foot’s specific pressure points. Ensure your socks are moisture-wicking to prevent friction during longer training sessions. For care, avoid machine washing; instead, spot-clean the white mesh upper with a soft brush, mild soap, and lukewarm water. Let the shoes air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can deform the foam midsole over time. Replace your trainers every 400 to 500 miles to ensure the cushioning remains effective.
