FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for flat feet?
The Questar 3 is a neutral running shoe. If you require significant arch support, you may wish to consider adding your own aftermarket orthotic insoles.
Can I use these for gym workouts?
Yes, the responsive cushioning and stable design make them suitable for general gym activities and cross-training.
What does the 5mm drop mean?
The drop refers to the difference in height between the heel (29mm) and the forefoot (24mm). A 5mm drop is generally considered a moderate offset that promotes a natural foot strike.
How should I clean the mesh material?
Use a soft brush to remove dry mud and a damp cloth with mild soap for surface stains. Do not soak the shoes in water.
Are these environmentally friendly?
Yes, they contain at least 20% recycled content as part of adidas's commitment to reducing waste and resource dependency.
How much do they weigh?
The shoe weighs approximately 306g based on a standard UK size 8.5.
Troubleshooting
The shoe feels too tight after a run
Feet naturally swell during exercise. Ensure you are wearing appropriate running socks and try lacing the shoes more loosely to accommodate the expansion.
Outer sole shows premature wear
Avoid wearing your running trainers for non-running activities like walking on abrasive gravel or heavy-duty sports, which can accelerate the wear of the rubber outsole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longest lifespan for your Questar 3 trainers, follow these care steps:
- Fitting: Always try your footwear on thoroughly before removing tags. Be aware that the box label may reflect US or EU sizing; verify against the UK size indicated on the label.
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush after your run. Wipe down the mesh upper with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed. Never machine wash or tumble dry your trainers as the heat can degrade the cushioning.
- Drying: Air dry naturally in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight or heat sources like radiators.
- Rotation: Allow the midsole cushioning to decompress for at least 24 hours between runs if you exercise daily.
