FAQs
Are these shoes unisex?
Yes, the Adistar Control 5 is designed as a unisex model to accommodate various foot shapes.
What is the primary benefit of the Dreamstrike midsole?
The Dreamstrike midsole is designed to offer maximum responsive cushioning and high energy return, which is ideal for performance training.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the cushioning materials and the adhesives.
Are they suitable for rainy weather?
While the textured rubber outsole provides good traction, the materials are not waterproof and may absorb moisture in heavy rain.
Do I need to break these in?
The padded tongue and collar provide immediate comfort, but a short walk-in period is always recommended for high-performance footwear.
Troubleshooting
Foot slipping inside the shoe
Adjust the lacing technique to a 'runner's loop' to secure the heel more effectively.
Visible dirt on the white exterior
Use a specialized sneaker cleaning foam or a mild soap solution with a soft-bristled brush.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Adistar Control 5 trainers last, follow these guidelines:
- Fit Check: Ensure the laces are tightened evenly to secure the midfoot without restricting circulation.
- Cleaning: Wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the trainers in water or using harsh chemical detergents.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent degradation of the midsole material.
- Air Drying: If they become wet, air dry them naturally. Do not place them on or near a direct heat source, as this may warp the rubber outsole or damage the cushioning foam.
