Product Information

Full details

These adidas Adistar Control 5 W trainers are designed for adult women seeking a blend of retro running style and everyday comfort. They offer a cushioned ride thanks to an EVA midsole and Adiprene+ forefoot cushioning, with durable traction from a rubber outsole. While they bring back an iconic 2000s look, the fit might be snug for wider feet.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?

The Adistar Control 5 W trainers are designed for casual wear and light activities. While they offer cushioning, they are not specialized for high-performance running like marathon events.

How do I determine my correct UK size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by adidas or the retailer. Generally, a UK size 5 fits a specific foot length, but trying them on or checking customer reviews for fit guidance is recommended.

Can I wear these shoes in wet conditions?

The open mesh upper is breathable but not waterproof. While the rubber outsole offers some traction, wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions is not recommended as your feet may get wet.

What does 'Adistar Control 5 W' mean?

'Adistar' refers to a line of adidas footwear, 'Control 5' indicates the model and version, and 'W' signifies that it is designed for women.

What is the difference between the blue/silver and blue/brown colorways?

The primary difference is the secondary accent color. The blue/silver model features metallic silver details, while the blue/brown variant includes brown accents.

How do I clean the mesh upper?

Use a soft brush or a damp cloth with mild soap to gently clean the mesh. Avoid soaking the shoes or using harsh detergents.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the shoes are new, they may require a short break-in period. Wearing thinner socks can also help. For persistent tightness, consider if the shoe's width is suitable for your foot type.

Traction seems poor

Check the outsole for any embedded debris or wear. Clean the rubber sole with a damp cloth. If the outsole is significantly worn down, it may be time to consider a replacement pair.

Discoloration on metallic details

Gently wipe the metallic areas with a slightly damp, soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch or remove the finish.
