Product Information

Full details

Designed for adult females seeking a blend of retro running aesthetics and modern comfort, the ADIDAS ORIGINALS Adistar Control 5 Shoes offer a smooth ride with distinct style. While they bring back an iconic 2000s silhouette, the cushioning technology ensures they feel current. A potential consideration is that the open mesh upper might offer less protection in wet conditions.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for serious running or marathon training?

The Adistar Control 5 shoes are inspired by running styles and offer good cushioning for casual wear and light jogs. For serious running or marathon training, dedicated performance running shoes might be more appropriate.

How do I clean the open mesh upper?

Gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush. For stains, use a cloth lightly dampened with water and a small amount of mild soap, then wipe with a clean damp cloth. Allow to air dry.

What does 'Adiprene+' refer to in the forefoot?

Adiprene+ is an EVA-based cushioning material used in the forefoot of the shoe to provide enhanced comfort and a smoother transition during the stride.

Can these shoes be worn in the rain?

The open mesh upper offers breathability but may not provide significant protection against wet conditions. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain.

What is the primary style inspiration for these shoes?

These shoes revive an iconic running shoe style from the 2000s, blending retro aesthetics with modern comfort features.

What colors and finishes are available?

This specific model is available in White with Metallic Silver details and synthetic 3-Stripes. Other colorways and variations may exist within the Adistar series.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the fit is still not ideal, consider trying a different size or consult the sizing guide.

Traction feels insufficient on slippery surfaces

The rubber outsole provides durable traction, but caution is advised on extremely wet or polished surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris.

Discomfort after prolonged wear

While designed for comfort, prolonged high-impact activity may reveal limitations. Ensure the shoes are appropriate for your intended use. Break them in gradually if they are new.
