FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear rather than long-distance running or professional athletic performance.
How do I determine my size?
The Adistar Control 5 follows standard UK adult sizing. It is recommended to choose the size you typically wear in other adidas Originals footwear.
Are these machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the structural integrity and materials of the shoes. Please use hand-cleaning methods only.
Can I remove the insole?
The insoles are designed to be stable, but they may be removable if you wish to replace them with your own orthotic inserts.
How should I store them to prevent yellowing?
Store them in a cool, dry area away from direct heat sources and UV light to protect the white colorway.
Troubleshooting
Outer material is showing surface scuffs
Use a specialized sneaker cleaning wipe or a damp cloth with mild soap to gently buff out marks.
Shoes feel too tight initially
Wear them with thinner socks for the first few days to allow the internal materials to adapt to your foot shape.
Outsole losing grip due to debris
Use a soft brush to dislodge pebbles or dried mud from the grooves in the tread.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Adistar Control 5 trainers last as long as possible, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. To clean, remove loose dirt with a soft brush and wipe the surface with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid soaking the materials. For compatibility, these trainers fit standard adult sizing. If you plan on using custom insoles, ensure they are compatible with the existing footbed depth. Periodically check the outsole for debris to maintain traction and safety.
