FAQs

What is the primary material of these trainers?

The primary upper material is typically textile or synthetic, with a cotton blend often used for comfort linings. The outsole is made of durable rubber.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The Adistar Control 5 trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and offer lightweight cushioning. For serious running or athletic training, specialized running shoes with advanced support and cushioning are recommended.

How should I clean the Burgundy/Silver colorway?

Clean the trainers with a soft brush and water. For tougher stains, use a mild detergent and a damp cloth. Always air dry away from heat.

What does 'Adistar Control 5' signify?

'Adistar' is a range within adidas footwear, often associated with comfort and performance. 'Control 5' likely refers to a specific model iteration within that line, emphasizing stability and fit.

Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?

The rubber outsole provides some traction, but the trainers are not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions. Avoid heavy rain or prolonged exposure to wetness.

What is the fit like for a UK 12.5 size?

UK 12.5 is a larger size. It's recommended to try them on if possible, or consult an adidas sizing chart to ensure the best fit, as individual foot shapes can vary.

Troubleshooting

Laces are difficult to tighten or loosen.

Ensure the laces are not tangled. If they feel stiff, try gently working them back and forth through the eyelets.

Inner cushioning feels flat after extended use.

The EVA midsole is designed for lightweight cushioning. For prolonged intense activity, consider trainers with more specialized support. Allow shoes to rest between wears to help them recover their shape.

Soles appear slippery on certain surfaces.

Ensure the textured grip tread is clean and free from debris. For very smooth or wet surfaces, exercise caution as with any footwear.

Discoloration of the fabric.

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap as per care instructions.
