FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?

While these feature Adiprene+ cushioning, they are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers based on 2000s heritage styles rather than modern technical running gear.

How do I clean the metallic silver details?

Gently wipe the metallic parts with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubs, as these may scratch the finish.

What is the best way to ensure the mesh stays breathable?

Keep the mesh clean and free of debris; if the material becomes clogged with dust, gently brush it to maintain airflow.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, you can remove the existing insoles to replace them with custom orthotics if required for additional support.

Do these shoes run true to size?

The Adistar Control 5 typically follows standard adidas sizing, but fit can vary based on foot width; ensure you check your UK size specifically.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt stuck in the mesh material

Use a soft brush or a compressed air canister to gently dislodge particles from the mesh pores.

Creasing at the forefoot

Creasing is a natural characteristic of flexible athletic shoes. To minimize, use a shoe tree when not in use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Adistar Control 5 trainers stay in optimal condition:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the mesh and synthetic overlays. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and a damp cloth; avoid soaking the shoes or using a washing machine, as this can degrade the synthetic materials and metallic finishes.
  2. Drying: Always air dry at room temperature. Keep the trainers away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can cause the materials to warp or discolor.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the color vibrancy of the Red and Silver elements.
  4. Compatibility: These are standard trainer silhouettes that pair well with casual wear like jeans, joggers, or technical shorts.
