FAQs
What is the primary material of these trainers?
The trainers feature a 100 percent textile (Polyester) upper, lining, and cushioning, with a 100 percent robust rubber sole.
Are these trainers suitable for sports activities like running?
While designed as a 'sports shoe' in style, their flat heel and platform design make them more suitable for casual wear, walking, and light activities rather than intense running or high-impact sports where specific athletic support is needed.
How do I choose the correct size?
These trainers are listed in UK size 4. It is recommended to try them on to ensure the best fit, as sizing can vary. If unable to try on, refer to adidas's official sizing guide if available, and measure your foot length.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, sole adhesion, and overall structure of the trainers. Please follow the spot cleaning instructions provided in the 'Care' section.
Do these trainers offer arch support?
The adidas Bravada 2.0 Platform Trainers feature a flat heel designed for stability. They offer general cushioning but may not provide specific anatomical arch support. If you require significant arch support, you might consider using orthotic inserts.
Are they waterproof?
The textile material is not waterproof. These trainers are best suited for dry conditions. Avoid heavy rain or prolonged exposure to moisture to protect the materials and prolong their lifespan.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the lace tension. For tightness, re-lace starting from the bottom, ensuring even, comfortable tension. For looseness, tighten the laces progressively, making sure the knots are secure.
Slipping on smooth surfaces.
Check the rubber sole for excessive wear or trapped debris. Clean the sole to restore traction. If the sole is heavily worn, it might be time for replacement.
Stains or dirt on the textile upper.
Spot clean immediately using a soft cloth, mild soap, and cool water. Gently rub the affected area. For stubborn marks, a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) can be used carefully. Avoid soaking the entire shoe.
Foot odor after prolonged wear.
Ensure trainers are fully air-dried after each use. You can remove the insoles to air them out separately. Consider using a shoe deodorizer spray or placing baking soda packets inside overnight to absorb odors.
Material feels stiff.
The textile material may require a short break-in period. Wear the trainers for shorter durations initially. Ensure you're wearing appropriate socks to prevent rubbing. The material should soften slightly with continued use.

Care
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your trainers:
- Cleaning: For general dirt and stains, gently spot clean the textile upper with a soft cloth or brush, mild soap (like diluted laundry detergent), and cool water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the material and sole.
- Drying: After cleaning, air dry the trainers at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight, which can cause the material to warp or fade. Stuff with paper towels to absorb moisture and help maintain shape.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Keep them in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust.
- Odor Prevention: To minimize odors, ensure trainers are completely dry before storing. Consider using shoe deodorizers or cedar shoe trees.
