FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These trainers are primarily designed for daily wear and walking. While they feature cushioning, they are not optimized for long-distance running.
How should I clean the leather upper?
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft, damp cloth with mild soap. Avoid submersion in water or machine washing.
Are the insoles removable?
The Adistar XLG trainers generally feature standard footbeds; however, they are not specifically marketed for custom orthotic replacement.
Do these shoes come in half sizes?
Yes, they are available in half sizes to provide a more precise fit for different foot shapes.
What is the primary function of the Adiprene+ cushioning?
Adiprene+ is an elastic material that provides responsive, efficient cushioning and shock absorption during your stride.
Can I wear these in the rain?
While leather is naturally resistant, excessive water exposure can damage the material. It is recommended to apply a water-repellent spray designed for leather if you live in a wet climate.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight during the first few wears
Leather will naturally stretch and mold to your foot shape; try wearing them for shorter periods indoors until fully broken in.
Reflective strips appear less bright
Gently wipe the reflective areas with a clean, slightly damp cloth to remove any dust or grime film that might be obstructing the light.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Adistar XLG trainers last, proper care is essential. Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the leather surface after each wear. For minor scuffs, use a damp cloth with mild soap, ensuring you do not soak the leather. Always air dry your shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the leather from cracking. Because these are a unisex fit, verify your UK size against the size chart, as leather tends to break in slightly over time. For storage, keep them in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture buildup within the padding.
