FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The Adistar Control 5 are designed with retro running aesthetics and modern cushioning, making them excellent for walking and casual wear. For dedicated running, especially longer distances or high-intensity training, specialized running shoes offering more targeted support and impact absorption are recommended.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the size chart provided by adidas and measure your foot length. Since these are UK sizes, ensure you select the corresponding UK size. The 'Cloud White' model is listed as UK 10.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Hand washing with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method to protect the materials and maintain their shape.
What is the main benefit of the adiPRENE+ midsole?
The adiPRENE+ system provides superior cushioning and dynamic energy return, helping to absorb shock and reduce fatigue, particularly during extended periods of walking or standing.
Are there other color options available?
Yes, the Adistar Control 5 series comes in various colorways, including black, and other models may feature different accent colors. The specific 'Cloud White' model features white with grey and silver accents.
How durable is the textile mesh upper?
The textile mesh is designed to be lightweight and breathable. While durable for its intended use in casual wear and walking, it may be less resistant to abrasion or tearing compared to heavier materials used in more robust footwear.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure laces are loosened before putting them on. The textile mesh will stretch slightly with wear, but if initially too tight, consider if a different size is needed.
Reduced cushioning effect over time
The adiPRENE+ midsole may lose some of its responsiveness after extensive wear. Regular cleaning and avoiding extreme conditions can help prolong its effectiveness.
Discoloration of white mesh
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or harsh chemicals. Clean gently with a damp cloth as soon as any marks appear.
