FAQs

What type of running are these shoes best suited for?

The Adistar Control 5 are best suited for light jogging, casual wear, and everyday activities rather than high-performance or long-distance running. They offer comfort and style.

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, the upper is made of open mesh with synthetic overlays, making them breathable but not waterproof. They are not designed for use in wet conditions.

How do I determine my correct UK size?

Refer to the brand's official size guide, which typically includes foot length measurements in centimeters or inches to help you find the corresponding UK shoe size.

Can I put these shoes in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes, as it can damage the materials and construction. Hand wash using mild soap and water as per the care instructions.

What is Adiprene+?

Adiprene+ is a synthetic cushioning material used in the forefoot of the shoe to provide enhanced shock absorption and a more responsive feel during the toe-off phase of your stride.

Do these shoes offer arch support?

The shoes provide cushioning through the EVA midsole, but they are not specifically designed as orthopedic or high-support athletic shoes. They offer a balanced feel suitable for general use.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If still tight, try loosening the laces or consider if the size is correct. Refer to the size guide for accurate measurements.

Soles feel slippery

The rubber outsole is designed for traction on most surfaces. Ensure the soles are clean from mud or debris. If the issue persists on specific surfaces, they may not be suitable for that environment.

Mesh upper feels less breathable than expected

Ensure the mesh is not clogged with dirt. Gentle cleaning with a damp cloth can help restore airflow. Consistent wear can also help break in the material.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Stylish retro design inspired by early 2000s running shoes.
  • Comfortable cushioning thanks to EVA midsole and Adiprene+ technology.
  • Breathable upper promotes airflow for comfort.
  • Durable rubber outsole offers good traction.
  • Versatile for casual wear and light athletic activities.

Cons

  • Mesh upper may offer limited protection in wet weather.
  • May not provide the advanced support required for high-intensity training.
  • Sizing might vary, recommending checking size charts.
  • Design is specific and may not suit all personal styles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These shoes require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. They are compatible with standard athletic or casual socks.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: For general cleaning, use a soft brush or cloth to remove loose dirt. For tougher spots, use a mild soap with cool water and a clean cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Use a shoe tree to help maintain their shape.
