FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The Adistar Control 5 trainers are designed with a retro running aesthetic and offer good cushioning for everyday comfort. They are best suited for casual wear, walking, and light training, rather than high-intensity or long-distance running.
How do I find the correct size?
These are unisex trainers. It's recommended to consult the adidas sizing chart and measure your foot to find the most accurate UK size. If you are between sizes, consider your preferred fit (snug or roomy) and the general advice for the specific model.
Can these trainers be machine washed?
No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the materials, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoe. Always clean them by hand using a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary.
What is the TORSION System for?
The TORSION System provides support to the midfoot, allowing the forefoot and rearfoot to move independently. This enhances stability and control during movement.
How durable is the rubber outsole?
The rubber outsole is designed for durability and reliable traction during everyday use and light activities. Regular cleaning will help maintain its grip and longevity.
What does 'Y2K style' refer to?
Y2K style refers to the fashion trends popular around the year 2000. In footwear, this often includes chunky silhouettes, a mix of materials, and performance-inspired designs reminiscent of that era.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or too loose.
Adjust the laces for a more secure or relaxed fit. If the size is fundamentally incorrect, consider exchanging for a different size.
Reduced cushioning after initial wear.
The EVA midsole may require a short break-in period. Ensure the shoes are not excessively worn beyond their intended use.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from excessive dirt or debris. The grip may vary on extremely smooth or wet surfaces.
Mesh upper showing signs of wear or damage.
Avoid excessive abrasion against rough surfaces. Clean gently as per care instructions to maintain material integrity.
