FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?

While based on a running silhouette, the Adistar Control 5 is currently positioned as a lifestyle trainer. It is best for casual use rather than intensive marathon training.

How should I clean the metallic silver details?

Gently wipe the silver sections with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive sponges that could scratch the metallic finish.

Does the shoe run true to size?

The Adistar Control 5 generally fits true to standard adult sizing. It is recommended to choose your usual adidas footwear size.

Are these shoes water-resistant?

No. The open mesh design is meant for breathability and will allow water to penetrate easily, so they should be avoided in rainy conditions.

What is the primary benefit of the Adiprene+ technology?

Adiprene+ in the forefoot provides enhanced cushioning and rebound, which helps absorb impact and makes each step feel more responsive.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt trapped in the open mesh

Use a soft dry brush to dislodge particles before gently wiping with a damp cloth.

Outsole losing traction

Wipe the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove buildup and ensure it is free from debris.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Distinctive Y2K retro aesthetic
  • Lightweight EVA midsole for comfortable daily wear
  • Breathable mesh upper keeps feet cool
  • High-quality metallic detailing for visual impact

Cons

  • Design leans towards lifestyle fashion rather than high-performance sport
  • Metallic details may require careful cleaning to maintain shine
  • Open mesh is not suitable for wet or rainy weather

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your trainers last, it is important to follow proper maintenance steps. Since the shoes feature an open mesh upper and metallic accents, avoid putting them in a washing machine, as the heat and agitation can degrade the synthetic adhesives and finish. Instead, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the mesh and a damp cloth with mild soap for the synthetic 3-Stripes and silver overlays. Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the metallic details from fading.
