Yes, the Adistar Control 5 is designed as a unisex model.
Gently wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth to avoid scratching or stripping the metallic finish.
The sole is designed for standard urban surfaces; however, be mindful on polished indoor gymnasium floors.
Use a double knot or replace with slightly textured athletic laces for better grip.
Use a soft-bristled brush or a light compressed air spray to clear the pores of the mesh upper.
Ensure the shoes are not left in extreme heat, such as inside a hot car, which can prematurely degrade EVA material.
These trainers feature a standard lacing system, allowing for a customizable lockdown. For optimal comfort, ensure your laces are tightened securely to avoid heel slip during movement. To maintain the shoes, it is recommended to clean them with a soft brush to remove dust from the open-mesh fabric. For more significant stains, use a damp cloth with mild soap; avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemicals on the metallic overlays to prevent fading. Store in a cool, dry place to maintain the integrity of the foam cushioning.
