FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running long distances?

While they feature Adiprene+ technology, they are designed as a retro-inspired lifestyle and light training shoe rather than a dedicated high-mileage distance runner.

How do I determine the correct size?

The Adistar Control 5 fits true to standard athletic sizing. We recommend choosing the size you typically wear in other adidas performance or casual footwear.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the provided insoles can be removed if you prefer to use your own custom orthotics.

Are these sneakers water-resistant?

No, the open mesh upper is designed for breathability and will allow water to penetrate if exposed to heavy rain or puddles.

What is the primary material used in the upper?

The upper is constructed primarily from open-cell mesh, layered with synthetic 3-Stripes and metallic silver decorative elements.

How should I clean the metallic silver details?

Wipe them carefully with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners as they can cause the metallic finish to peel or discolor.

Troubleshooting

Mesh becoming dirty or dusty

Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dry debris before spot-cleaning with a slightly dampened cloth.

Reduced grip on wet surfaces

The rubber outsole is designed for standard urban traction; avoid walking on oily or excessively smooth wet surfaces to prevent slipping.

Tight fit around the instep

Adjust the tension of the laces systematically from the bottom eyelets upward to customize the volume and pressure across the midfoot.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile retro-inspired aesthetic that pairs easily with modern outfits
  • Highly breathable construction ideal for all-day comfort
  • Effective forefoot cushioning provides a responsive feel
  • Durable outsole offers consistent grip
  • Lightweight construction reduces foot fatigue

Cons

  • Not intended for high-intensity professional athletic performance
  • The metallic silver elements may show scuffs if exposed to rough environments
  • Limited water resistance due to the open mesh design

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers require no special break-in period; they are designed for immediate wear. To ensure longevity, keep the shoes away from heavy mud or debris that could trap moisture in the mesh fibers. If the shoes become dirty, gently wipe the synthetic overlays with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing, which can compromise the structural integrity of the EVA midsole and the adhesive used for the metallic details. Store them in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the colorway from fading. When lacing, ensure you are not overtightening the eyelets to maintain the shape of the mesh panels.
