FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

The Adistar Control 5 trainers are designed for lifestyle wear and light athletic activities. For marathon running, we recommend specialized performance running shoes.

How do I determine the right UK size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by the retailer. For this model, the UK 11.5 refers to a specific foot length measurement designed for adult wear.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction. Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap.

What does 'adiPRENE+' technology do?

adiPRENE+ is an advanced cushioning material that enhances comfort and shock absorption, providing a more responsive feel.

What is the main benefit of the textile upper?

The textile upper provides excellent breathability, keeping your feet cool and comfortable, and offers a lightweight feel.

How does the fit compare to other adidas models?

The Adistar Control 5 features a traditional lacing system for a precise fit. Its design is inspired by classic silhouettes, offering a comfortable, adaptable fit for everyday wear.

What kind of socks are best to wear with these trainers?

For best comfort and performance, wear with standard athletic socks made of breathable materials like cotton blends or performance synthetics.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring they are not pulled too tightly, especially over the instep.

Slight discomfort on the heel

Wear with appropriate socks and ensure the laces are adjusted to provide a snug but not constricting fit around the ankle.

Dirt or stains on the textile upper

Gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow to air dry completely.

Reduced cushioning feel over time

The adiPRENE+ cushioning is designed for durability; however, feel can change with extensive wear. Ensure the laces are properly adjusted for optimal support.
