FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

These are designed primarily as lifestyle trainers. While they feature running-inspired technology, they are best suited for urban walking and daily wear.

Is the fit true to size?

The Adistar Control 5 features a regular fit, which is generally true to standard size expectations.

Can I wash these in a machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes, as it can damage the materials and adhesives. Stick to hand cleaning with a damp cloth.

Are they unisex?

Yes, these are designed as unisex trainers to accommodate a variety of adult foot shapes.

How do I maintain the metallic finish?

Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes on the metallic overlays. A gentle wipe with a damp cloth is sufficient.

Troubleshooting

Laces coming untied frequently

Ensure you are using a double knot if the laces are stiff; occasionally, new laces need a short break-in period to become more pliable.

Mesh becoming clogged with debris

Use a soft brush or compressed air to gently dislodge particles from the open-mesh fabric.

Reduced comfort over time

Check the interior textile sockliner for wear and consider replacing it with an aftermarket insole if needed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Getting started with your Adistar Control 5 trainers is simple thanks to the standard lace-up closure that allows for a secure, customizable fit. To ensure longevity, follow these care steps:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry mud or surface dirt from the mesh and synthetic overlays.
  2. Spot Treatment: If necessary, wipe down the midsole with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the shoes in water.
  3. Drying: Air dry the shoes at room temperature away from direct sunlight or heat sources, which can warp the materials.
  4. Storage: Keep them in a cool, dry place to prevent the textile sockliner from retaining moisture.
