FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While based on a running silhouette, the Adistar Control 5 is designed primarily as a lifestyle trainer for walking and everyday wear.

How do I clean the metallic overlays?

Wipe the metallic components gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth to prevent scratching or dulling the finish.

Is the fit true to size?

These trainers are listed with a regular fit. If you prefer extra room for thicker socks, consider how the strap closure impacts your usual size preference.

Can I replace the straps?

The straps are integrated into the design of the shoe. They are not intended to be replaced or removed.

Are these unisex?

While some models in the Adistar Control 5 series are gender-specific, please check the individual product details to ensure the size and style match your requirements.

Troubleshooting

Strap closure feels loose or slips

Clean the hook-and-loop fabric on the strap to ensure debris or lint is not preventing a proper seal.

Upper mesh shows signs of dirt buildup

Gently dab the mesh with a mild detergent solution and a soft cloth, then allow to air dry away from direct heat sources.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Adistar Control 5 trainers maintain their shape and aesthetic appeal, avoid machine washing. Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dried dirt from the mesh and metallic overlays. Wipe down the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to maintain traction. For the strap system, ensure the velcro or fastener remains free of lint to maintain a tight grip. If you find the strap is too loose, ensure your foot is centered before pressing the closure to secure the fit.
