FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The Adistar Control 5 Trainers are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear. While they offer comfort for walking and light activity, they are not engineered for performance running.

How do I clean the mesh upper?

Use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap to gently clean the mesh. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh scrubbing. Always allow them to air dry.

What does '00s running silhouette' mean?

This refers to the design style and shape characteristic of running shoes from the early 2000s, updated here for contemporary fashion.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

The open-mesh upper provides breathability but offers limited protection against heavy rain. They are best suited for dry or lightly damp conditions.

What material is the upper made of?

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

What is the purpose of the metallic overlays?

The metallic overlays are a design feature that adds a distinctive visual appeal and a touch of style to the trainers.

How do I ensure a secure fit?

Utilize the lace closure system to adjust the tightness across your foot. Tighten evenly for balanced support and comfort.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring they are not pulled too tight across the midfoot. If the issue persists, consider if the size is appropriate or if the shoe needs a brief break-in period.

Discomfort during wear

Ensure socks are worn to prevent friction. Check that the laces are adjusted correctly for optimal support without constriction. Allow for a short break-in period.

Traction seems reduced

Clean the rubber outsole thoroughly with a damp cloth or brush to remove any accumulated dirt or debris that may be hindering grip.

Appearance of scuffs on metallic overlays

Light scuffs can sometimes be buffed out with a soft cloth. For more significant marks, consider this normal wear and tear associated with footwear used for active lifestyle purposes.
