FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
They are designed for light workouts and everyday wear. They are not recommended for long-distance or high-impact professional running.
How should I clean the shoes?
Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap for the upper. Allow them to air dry away from heat sources.
Is the sizing true to fit?
The Adistar Control 5 follows standard UK sizing conventions. We recommend purchasing your usual size for the best fit.
What is the primary benefit of the adiPRENE+ technology?
It provides enhanced forefoot cushioning and a more responsive, bouncy feel during movement.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable if you need to replace them with orthotics or customized supports.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone frequently
Ensure you are using a double knot or look into runner's loop lacing techniques for a tighter lockdown.
Inner lining feeling abrasive
Ensure you are wearing moisture-wicking athletic socks to reduce friction against the foot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your trainers maintain their integrity, use the traditional laces to achieve a snug fit without over-tightening, which can restrict circulation. For care, avoid machine washing; instead, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove dirt. Remove the insoles occasionally to air them out, and store the shoes in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to prevent the materials from drying out or discoloring. Because these are standard UK sizing, ensure your foot measurements align with your standard trainer size to avoid discomfort during break-in.
