Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose.

Adjust the laces using the classic lace-up closure for a more personalized fit. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size, as Adistar Control 5 trainers are designed for a regular fit.

Discomfort after extended wear.

Ensure the shoes are properly laced and the padded collar is sitting comfortably around the ankle. Break in the shoes with shorter periods of wear initially.

Slippery outsole on certain surfaces.

While the rubber outsole offers good grip, performance may vary on extremely wet or polished surfaces. Ensure the outsole is free from debris.

Mesh upper appears dirty.

Gently wipe the mesh with a damp cloth. For tougher spots, use a soft brush with a mild soap and water solution, then wipe clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.
