FAQs

What is the primary material of these trainers?

The Adistar Control 5 trainers feature a cotton upper, and a midsole made of EVA for cushioning.

Are these trainers suitable for athletic performance?

These trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle activities. While they offer comfort and cushioning, they may not provide the specialized support or durability required for intense athletic training.

How do I ensure the best fit?

Lace the trainers up securely, ensuring they are snug around your foot without being too tight. The padded tongue and ankle are designed to enhance comfort when properly fitted.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

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

What does the 'Animal' pattern refer to?

The 'Animal' pattern refers to a bold leopard print featured on the trainers, adding a distinctive visual element to the black colourway.

What is the benefit of the EVA midsole?

The EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate) midsole provides lightweight cushioning, helping to absorb impact during wear and offering comfort for extended periods.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure laces are correctly adjusted for a snug but not overly tight fit. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods initially. Check for any internal seams or tags causing irritation.

Slight odour after wear

Allow shoes to air out completely between wears. Use shoe deodorizers or insert baking soda overnight. Wash insoles separately if possible, following care instructions.

Dirt or stains on the animal print

Use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap to gently clean the affected area. Blot the stain rather than rubbing aggressively. Test cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area first.
