FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

No, these are categorized as lifestyle trainers designed for casual, daily wear rather than high-performance sports or long-distance running.

Do these fit true to size?

Generally, the Adistar Control 5 fits true to standard adult sizing, though those with wider feet may prefer a slightly roomier feel compared to narrow performance models.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

It is strongly recommended not to machine wash these shoes, as the machine's agitation and heat can damage the leather and adhesive bonds.

What is the primary material used?

The upper is constructed primarily from leather, providing a durable and structured aesthetic.

Is the sole non-marking?

The rubber outsole is designed for urban durability, making it suitable for most indoor and outdoor surfaces.

How should I clean the white midsole?

Use a soft-bristled brush with a mixture of mild soap and water to gently scrub the midsole, then wipe clean with a dry cloth.

Troubleshooting

Leather surface shows scuffs or dirt buildup

Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft brush and damp cloth to gently lift surface debris, then follow up with a leather conditioner.

Shoes feel tight after long days of walking

Loosen the laces across the entire midfoot area to allow for natural foot swelling, or consider a thinner insole if more volume is needed.

Creasing in the toe box area

Creasing is a natural characteristic of genuine leather; use cedar shoe trees when not wearing to help the shoe retain its shape and absorb residual moisture.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile design suitable for casual urban environments
  • Excellent underfoot cushioning for all-day comfort
  • Durable leather construction resists daily wear
  • Reliable traction on pavement and concrete

Cons

  • Leather material is not as breathable as mesh trainers
  • Requires regular care to maintain the leather finish
  • Not suitable for high-intensity athletic performance

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Adistar Control 5 trainers remain in top condition, follow these simple guidelines:

  1. Break-in period: Leather may feel slightly stiff initially; wear them for short durations for the first few days to allow the material to conform to your foot shape.
  2. Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the structural integrity of the leather.
  3. Maintenance: Apply a leather-safe conditioner periodically to prevent cracking and maintain the material's suppleness.
  4. Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from fading or drying out.
  5. Lace adjustments: Use the lacing system to ensure a snug fit around the midfoot; avoid over-tightening the eyelets to prevent premature wear around the lace holes.
