Comments about Womens adidas adiSTAR Control 5 Running Shoe:

I'm usually a Saucony Hurricane fan but the new ones are just not right. I tried this pair after they were shoe dog recommended. Horrible shoe - pain in my knees and ankles after my first 3 miles! I tried again with the same result. Bottom line these are going back to RRS.

Comments about Womens adidas adiSTAR Control 5 Running Shoe:

I have high arches, and under pronate (I roll OUT), and this shoe gives me amazing support, and stability.
I had been wearing the Adidas Techstar a3 and pretty much wore the tread off because I loved them so much.
This shoe does have a bulky look, but, I'm not going to a fashion show when I run the roads!
I'm free from knee pain, hip pain, and my foot is fully supported for the full hour that I run everyday.
Another great shoe Adidas!

Comments about Womens adidas adiSTAR Control 5 Running Shoe:

Had the Adistar 4 which I loved but they discontinued so I went to these. Same great shoe although they have a slight bulkier look. Did my first ever 10 miles in these with no knee pain at all (which I always had before switching to the 4's). Thanks Adidas!

By cheryl

from Undisclosed

Comments about Womens adidas adiSTAR Control 5 Running Shoe:

The most comfy shoe ever. Stable, but great cushioning, and feels very light and springy. Have had many injuries and foot surgeries, so am picky.Prefer this to SuperNova, which feels heavier. Fits my food well (I have a normal arch, have had bunion surgery, have long toes I think, and can get plantar fasciitis in the wrong shoe).Generously sized--I can't imagine going 1/2 size larger as recommended by RRS. Highly recommended! Please do not change it or discontinue it!!!!

By Cindy C.

Comments about Womens adidas adiSTAR Control 5 Running Shoe:

I just bought this shoe today-it was the first one I tried on and the only one I left the store with! The built-in medial support device really does help with my overpronation-I could tell immediately. And the overall comfort is really great. It's very stable yet lighter than I thought it would feel (it is supposed to be around 11 ounces). Overall, I'm very happy and I can't wait to take these out for a spin..

Comments about Womens adidas adiSTAR Control 5 Running Shoe:

I love the fit, feel and ride of this update. Very plush cushioning without feeling too squishy. It's also amazingly flexible to give you a great toe-off. This is going to be my new everyday trainer!
