FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The Adistar Control 5 are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear. While they offer comfort for walking, they are not intended for high-performance athletic activities like serious running.

How do I find the right size?

Refer to the Adidas sizing chart available on most retailers' websites. Compare your foot measurements to the chart. These trainers are listed in UK adult sizes.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method to preserve the materials and shape.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is primarily made of textile, featuring an open-mesh construction for breathability, along with metallic overlays.

Do these shoes offer good grip?

Yes, they feature a rubber outsole designed to provide reliable grip on various urban surfaces, suitable for everyday walking and casual use.

What does 'regular fit' mean?

'Regular fit' indicates a standard width and volume that is neither narrow nor wide, designed to accommodate most foot shapes comfortably for everyday wear.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and adjust them to provide more room. If the issue persists, consider if the size is appropriate or if the laces need to be worn more loosely over time.

Squeaking noise when walking

This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try walking on different surfaces. If the noise is persistent, ensure the insoles are properly seated and check for any debris trapped in the outsole.

Discoloration on metallic overlays

Gently wipe the overlays with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners which can scratch the finish.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Stylish design inspired by 00s running shoes.
  • Comfortable for everyday wear due to breathable materials.
  • Provides good grip for walking and casual activities.
  • Secure fit ensures stability.

Cons

  • Primarily designed for lifestyle use, not intense athletic training.
  • May not offer advanced performance features for dedicated runners.
  • The open-mesh upper might not be ideal for very cold or wet conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no setup; they are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility: Suitable for adult unisex wear. Designed for general lifestyle and casual use.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. For stubborn stains on the textile upper, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by a thorough wipe with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Cleaning the Outsole: The rubber outsole can be cleaned with a brush and water to remove mud or debris. For tougher scuffs, a damp cloth with mild soap can be used.
  3. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to maintain their shape and material integrity.
