FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?

The Adistar Control 5 is designed primarily for casual and lifestyle use. While they provide good comfort, they are not intended for high-performance athletic training.

Are these trainers unisex?

Yes, they are designed as unisex trainers, suitable for both men and women.

How do I ensure I order the correct size?

These trainers use standard UK sizing. Ensure you check the size guide provided for the specific MPN, as sizing may vary slightly depending on the specific release.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

It is not recommended to machine wash your trainers, as this can damage the adhesives and the integrity of the metallic overlays.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is constructed from a high-quality, breathable polyester open-mesh.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt on the mesh material

Use a soft dry brush to remove loose dirt, or a damp cloth with mild soap for stubborn spots.

Creasing on the midsole

This is normal with EVA foam; using a shoe tree when not wearing them can help maintain the shape.

Odour buildup

Remove the insole to air out and use an anti-odour spray specifically designed for athletic footwear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Adidas Adistar Control 5 trainers, follow these maintenance tips: Keep the mesh upper clean by gently brushing off dry dirt with a soft-bristled brush. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap solution and a damp cloth; avoid submerging the trainers in water or using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the metallic overlays and adhesive components. When not in use, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the vibrant purple colour. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, keeping them away from direct heat sources like radiators.
