FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These sneakers are designed for everyday urban use and light activities, offering comfort and support for walking. They are not intended for high-performance running or athletic training.
How do I clean the mesh parts of the shoe?
Gently spot clean the mesh with a damp cloth and mild soap solution. Use a soft brush for stubborn dirt and rinse lightly. Always allow them to air dry.
What is the sole height?
The sole height at its highest point is approximately 4 cm.
Can these be worn by women?
While this specific listing is for men's sizing, similar models in the Adistar Control 5 series are available in women's sizing and feature a comparable design and functionality.
Do the reflective accents provide significant visibility?
The silver reflective accents are primarily for stylistic enhancement and offer a degree of reflectivity in low light conditions, but they are not a substitute for dedicated high-visibility gear.
What material is the turquoise stripe made of?
The turquoise triple stripe is part of the shoe's synthetic overlay design, contributing to its iconic look.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Try wearing thinner socks. The shoe may require a short break-in period.
Slight squeaking noise during wear
This can sometimes occur with new footwear. Try wearing them for a few more days to see if the noise subsides. Ensure no debris is trapped between the sole and the upper.
Discoloration of the grey upper
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean with a damp cloth as per care instructions. Do not use harsh chemicals.
