FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The Adistar Control 5 are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear. While comfortable for walking, they are not engineered for the specific support and cushioning demands of high-performance running.
How do I determine my correct shoe size?
Refer to the Adidas sizing chart for accurate measurements. Typically, measure your foot length from heel to toe and compare it with the provided UK sizing guide. The model reviewed here is a UK 8.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is made of textile, featuring an open-mesh construction for breathability, with added metallic overlays for style.
Can I machine wash these shoes?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction. Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap.
What kind of fit do these shoes offer?
They offer a regular fit, designed to be comfortable for most adult feet. A secure fit is achieved through the lace closure system.
How durable is the rubber outsole?
The rubber outsole is designed for durability and provides reliable grip for everyday urban use, offering good traction on various surfaces.
What is the main benefit of the textile upper?
The open-mesh textile upper's main benefit is its breathability, which helps to keep your feet cool and comfortable, especially during prolonged wear.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring they are not overtightened. The textile upper will also adapt slightly with wear.
Slight discomfort during initial wear
This is common with new footwear. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Ensure you have the correct size.
Reduced grip on wet surfaces
The rubber outsole provides good traction, but extreme wet conditions can reduce grip for any footwear. Exercise caution on very slick surfaces.
Discoloration of metallic overlays
Avoid prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals or excessive scrubbing on the metallic parts. Clean gently with a damp cloth.

Setup: These shoes require no setup; simply lace them up for a secure fit.
Compatibility: The Adistar Control 5 is designed for unisex adult wear and is compatible with a wide range of casual outfits. They are best suited for walking, daily commutes, and general lifestyle activities.
Care: To maintain the appearance and integrity of your Adistar Control 5 shoes:
- Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the textile upper with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh detergents.
- Cleaning the Outsole: Use a brush to remove dirt and debris from the rubber outsole. For stubborn marks, a damp cloth can be used.
