FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?

No, these are lifestyle trainers designed for casual wear and walking, not for high-intensity athletic running.

How do I secure the strap closure?

The strap is designed to pull tight across the midfoot and fasten securely, keeping your foot stable within the shoe.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the best way to preserve the materials.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is constructed from an open-mesh fabric, providing lightweight breathability.

Do these shoes run true to size?

Yes, they feature a regular fit, but we always recommend referencing the size chart provided for your specific region.

Troubleshooting

Strap feels too loose

Adjust the tension of the strap closure more firmly before securing, ensuring the material is flush against the top of your foot.

Surface scuffing on metallic overlays

Gently wipe the area with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive scrubbers as these can scratch the metallic finish.

Breathability seems reduced

Use a soft brush to clear any dust or particulate matter trapped in the mesh weave.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Adistar Control 5 trainers maintain their look and feel, follow these guidelines:

  1. Fit: The shoes follow a regular fit. Ensure the strap is tightened to your comfort level to prevent slippage.
  2. Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the mesh. Use a damp cloth with mild soap for the metallic overlays, avoiding harsh chemicals that may degrade the finish.
  3. Storage: Keep the shoes in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to prevent the mesh and synthetic components from becoming brittle or discolored.
  4. Maintenance: Regularly check the rubber outsole for trapped debris, such as small stones, to maintain optimal grip.
