Back to Results Adidas adiStar Control 4 Manufacturer: Adidas Price: $130 Reviewed in: Feb 2007 Shoe Guide Shoe Type: Motion Control See Specifications Disclaimer WE SAY: The Control has been updated with a softer sockliner that incorporates two layers of memory foam that improve the shoe's fit. Adidas has also added a seamless mesh layer inside the upper to reduce chafing across the top of the foot. The outsole features a firmer rubber compound around the perimeter that gives the shoe added support and helps guard against tread wear. We recommend this shoe for lighter runners with flat arches or average-weight runners with lower arches looking for a stable, everyday trainer.
