FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

The Adistar Control 5 is designed for everyday wear and comfort. While they offer cushioning, they are not specifically engineered for the demands of marathon running, which typically requires specialized footwear for advanced support and performance.

How do I clean the mesh upper?

For the mesh upper, use a soft brush or a damp cloth with mild soap. Gently scrub the soiled areas and wipe clean with a fresh damp cloth. Allow to air dry.

What does 'adiPRENE+' refer to?

adiPRENE+ is an adidas cushioning technology designed to provide enhanced comfort and shock absorption, particularly in the forefoot, promoting a more responsive and energized feel.

Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Machine washing can damage the materials, structure, and cushioning of the shoe. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth is the preferred method.

How do the 00s trends influence the design?

The design incorporates elements popular in the early 2000s, such as layered materials, a slightly chunkier silhouette, and a focus on breathable mesh, updated for a contemporary look.

What is the primary benefit of the open mesh upper?

The open mesh upper significantly improves ventilation, allowing air to circulate freely and keeping your feet cool and dry, especially during warmer weather or extended wear.

Are these trainers unisex?

This specific model, the adidas Originals Womens Adistar Control 5, is designed for women. While styles can sometimes be unisex, this variant is tailored to a female fit and aesthetic.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight

Loosen the laces and readjust for a more comfortable fit. Ensure you are using the correct UK size; refer to a size guide if unsure.

Slight discomfort in the arch

The adiPRENE+ cushioning may require a short break-in period. If discomfort persists, consider using aftermarket insoles for additional arch support.

Traction feels less secure on wet surfaces

The rubber outsole provides good traction, but caution is advised on very wet or slippery surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean of debris.
