FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While they feature an EVA midsole for comfort, these are categorized as lifestyle trainers and are not intended for high-performance running.

How do I choose the right size?

These shoes follow standard UK sizing for adults. We recommend selecting your usual size; if you are between sizes, consider a slightly larger fit for more room.

Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the leather material and the structural integrity of the shoe. Use manual cleaning methods instead.

Are these trainers unisex?

Yes, the Adistar Control 5 is designed as a unisex model, suitable for anyone who fits the available UK size range.

Does the leather require special conditioning?

Using a leather conditioner occasionally will help keep the material soft and prevent it from drying out over time.

Troubleshooting

Creasing in the leather upper

Use shoe trees when not wearing the trainers to help maintain their shape and minimize deep creases.

Difficulty keeping white leather clean

Use a specialized sneaker eraser or a soft-bristled brush with a mild soap solution to spot-clean specific areas.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Adistar Control 5 trainers last, follow these guidelines:

  1. Fitting: Ensure you have selected the correct UK size, as the leather material offers minimal stretch over time.
  2. Cleaning: Wipe down the leather exterior with a soft, damp cloth after use to prevent dirt buildup. For tougher stains, use a mild leather cleaner.
  3. Moisture Protection: Applying a water-repellent spray specifically designed for leather can protect the finish from unexpected weather.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather cracking or fading of the silver accents.
