FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

No, the Adistar Control 5 is designed for casual lifestyle wear and does not provide the technical support required for running.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Use a soft, slightly damp cloth to wipe down the exterior. For tougher marks, use a specialized leather-safe cleaning solution.

Does the shoe run true to size?

The Adistar Control 5 generally fits true to standard adult sizing, but it is recommended to reference your standard adidas size.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the internal insoles are typically removable if you need to insert custom orthotics or replace worn-out insoles.

How should I store these trainers?

Store them in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to preserve the leather and cushioning.

Troubleshooting

Leather looks dull after use

Apply a leather conditioner periodically to maintain the material's suppleness and shine.

Shoes feeling too tight

Loosen the lacing system starting from the bottom eyelets to distribute pressure more evenly across the midfoot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your trainers, follow these care steps:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe away dirt with a soft, dry cloth. For leather stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner applied to a cloth rather than the shoe directly.
  2. Moisture Control: Avoid soaking the leather. If the shoes become wet, air dry them naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent cracking.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
  4. Fit: The secure lace-up system allows you to manage fit; ensure laces are tightened correctly to prevent heel slippage while walking.
