FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?
No, the Adistar Control 5 is designed for lifestyle and casual wear rather than specialized athletic performance.
How do I clean the leather upper?
Wipe with a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals.
Does the shoe fit true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard sizing; however, individual preferences for fit may vary.
Are these trainers waterproof?
They are made of leather which provides some natural resistance, but they are not fully waterproof.
Can I replace the insoles?
The insoles are typically removable if you require custom orthotics.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the leather toe area
This is a natural characteristic of leather footwear; use shoe trees when not wearing to help maintain shape.
Laces coming untied frequently
Ensure the laces are threaded correctly and consider a double knot for a more secure, lasting hold.
Dirt stuck in the sole treads
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently dislodge debris from the grooves of the outsole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your trainers last, begin by checking for a proper fit during the initial try-on, ensuring there is enough room in the toe box. For daily maintenance, gently wipe the leather surface with a soft, dry cloth to remove loose dirt. If the shoes become soiled, use a mild soap solution and a damp cloth; avoid total immersion in water or machine washing, as this can degrade the leather and the integrity of the adhesive. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration.
