FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

These trainers are primarily designed for weightlifting and gym training, focusing on stability. They are not optimized for long-distance running or high-impact cardio.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the adidas sizing chart for accurate measurements. These trainers feature a wide fit, so if you have narrow feet, consider trying them on or looking for models with a standard fit.

Can I wear these for CrossFit?

Yes, the Dropset Control trainers are well-suited for CrossFit due to their stability for lifts and support for dynamic movements.

What is the REPETITOR midsole?

The REPETITOR midsole is an adidas technology designed to provide a balance of cushioning and responsiveness, supporting your feet during training.

How do I clean the mesh upper?

Gently clean the mesh with a soft brush and a mild soap and water solution. Avoid machine washing or harsh chemicals.

What is the benefit of the TPU midfoot torsion system?

The TPU midfoot torsion system provides support during dynamic movements and helps to stabilize the foot through its mid-range, enhancing agility and preventing unwanted twisting.

Do these shoes come in other colors?

The adidas Dropset Control trainers are available in various colorways, including grey/black, white, and other combinations depending on the release and retailer.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight/loose

Adjust the lacing system. For tightness, loosen the laces. For looseness, tighten them evenly, focusing on areas that feel unsupported.

Slipping during lateral movements

Ensure the laces are tied securely. Check if the shoe's outsole is worn down; if so, consider replacement. The wide fit might contribute if you have narrow feet.

Discomfort during squats

Verify the shoe's stability is maximized by ensuring the laces are snug and the foot is centered on the sole. Some users may need an adjustment period for the firm midsole.

Mesh upper feels less breathable

Ensure the mesh is clean and free of debris that could obstruct airflow. Check for any internal sock liners that might be reducing breathability.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove loose dirt. For stains, use a mild soap with lukewarm water and a cloth. Avoid harsh detergents.
  2. Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat or place them in a dryer, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure they are fully dry before storing to prevent odor and material degradation.
