FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While they offer cushioning, these are lifestyle trainers designed for casual daily wear rather than high-performance sports or long-distance running.
Do the trainers run true to size?
The Adistar Control 5 trainers generally fit true to standard UK adult sizing, though the padding may make them feel snug initially.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the leather and the integrity of the adhesive. Manual cleaning is highly recommended.
What is the primary material used?
These specific trainers feature high-quality leather construction for the upper, ensuring durability and a classic look.
How do I maintain the white colour?
Wipe down with a damp cloth regularly and use a white leather protector spray to resist stains and scuffs.
Are these unisex?
Yes, this model is designed as a unisex product suitable for all adults, provided the correct UK size is selected.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too stiff initially
Wear them indoors for short intervals over several days to allow the leather and sole to naturally flex.
Laces constantly coming undone
Ensure the laces are threaded through the top eyelets and consider using a double-knot until the material softens.
Surface scuff marks on leather
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft eraser to gently buff out minor marks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Adistar Control 5 trainers, proper maintenance is essential. Upon arrival, ensure the lace tension is adjusted to match your natural foot volume to prevent slippage. Because the primary upper material is leather, avoid submerging the shoes in water. Instead, use a soft, dry brush to remove loose dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap for surface cleaning. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent the leather from cracking. Check the outsoles periodically for embedded debris to maintain consistent grip performance.
