FAQs

What is the main inspiration behind the Adistar Control 5 MJ?

The shoe takes strong influence from a 20th-century classic, specifically mimicking a Mary Jane style with clear Y2K (early 2000s) aesthetic influences.

What kind of cushioning does this shoe feature?

The shoe features Adiprene cushioning, known for its shock absorption and comfort.

How do I clean the porous mesh upper?

Gently clean the mesh and synthetic overlays with a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to remove dirt. Avoid machine washing or harsh chemicals.

What does the 3D Torsion system do?

The 3D Torsion system is integrated into the midsole to provide midfoot stability and support, enhancing the shoe's overall structure.

Is this shoe suitable for running?

While the shoe offers cushioning and grip, its design and features are primarily geared towards casual wear and style, rather than high-impact athletic activities like running.

How does the zig-zag strap work?

The zig-zag strap is a utility feature that fastens across the shoe, helping to secure the foot and contributing to the distinctive visual design.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight or loose.

Adjust the zig-zag strap for a more secure or relaxed fit. Ensure you have selected the correct shoe size.

Dirt on the mesh or synthetic parts.

Gently clean with a soft brush and a damp cloth. For tougher spots, use a mild soap diluted in water, and wipe clean with a damp cloth. Allow to air dry away from direct heat.

Slipping on smooth surfaces.

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. For persistent slipping, consider if the shoe's tread is worn down from extensive use.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Unique retro design with modern elements.
  • Comfortable cushioning suitable for extended wear.
  • Good grip and stability from the outsole and torsion system.
  • Breathable upper material.

Cons

  • Mesh and synthetic materials may require specific cleaning methods.
  • The style might not suit all fashion preferences.
  • Laces might be a less secure closure for some activities compared to other shoe types.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These shoes require no assembly or setup; they are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility: The Adistar Control 5 MJ is designed for adult female wearers. Sizing is available in UK adult foot sizes.

Care Instructions:

  • Upper: The porous mesh and synthetic overlays should be cleaned gently. Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing, as this can damage the materials.
  • Cushioning: The Adiprene cushioning requires no special care, but avoid exposing the shoes to extreme heat, which can degrade the material.
  • Outsole: Clean the rubber outsole with water and a mild soap if necessary. Ensure it is dry before storing.
