FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While they feature running-inspired technology like Adiprene+, they are designed as lifestyle trainers and are best suited for casual wear and walking.

What is the best way to clean the metallic overlays?

Wipe the overlays with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes that could scratch the metallic finish.

Do these trainers run true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard Adidas sizing; however, always refer to your specific UK size measurement for the most accurate fit.

Can I replace the insoles?

The insoles are generally removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if preferred.

What material is the upper made from?

The upper consists primarily of nylon in an open-mesh configuration for improved breathability.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt trapped in the open-mesh upper

Use a soft brush or toothbrush to gently dislodge debris; if persistent, wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap.

Reduced grip on smooth, wet surfaces

Check the outsole for mud or packed-in grit and clean the rubber surface thoroughly to restore traction.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Iconic nostalgic 2000s aesthetic
  • Excellent ventilation due to open-mesh design
  • Lightweight feel for daily commuting
  • Effective shock absorption for city streets

Cons

  • Not intended for technical long-distance running
  • Requires regular cleaning to maintain mesh appearance
  • Design aesthetic may not suit formal environments

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Adistar Control 5 trainers, use a standard lace-up tension that feels secure but does not restrict circulation. For maintenance, it is recommended to spot-clean the nylon and mesh upper with a mild detergent and a soft-bristled brush. Avoid placing the shoes in a washing machine, as the high heat and agitation can damage the metallic overlays and adhesive bonds. If the shoes become wet, air dry them at room temperature away from direct heat sources to prevent material warping or stiffness.
