FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running or sports?

No, the adidas Women's Bravada 2.0 Platform Shoes are designed as casual lifestyle footwear for everyday wear and comfort. They are not intended for athletic activities like running, training, or high-impact sports.

How do I determine my size?

These shoes are in UK sizing. We recommend checking your usual adidas UK shoe size. If you are between sizes, consider trying the next half size up for a comfortable fit, especially with the regular fit design.

Can I machine wash these shoes?

No, it is not recommended to machine wash these shoes. Machine washing can damage the canvas material, adhesive, and overall structure. Please follow the spot cleaning instructions provided in the 'Care' section.

Do these shoes offer good arch support?

The Cloudfoam sockliner provides excellent cushioning for comfort, which can offer some level of general support. However, if you require specific or advanced arch support, you may consider using a personal orthotic insert.

Is the canvas material waterproof?

No, the canvas upper is not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing these shoes in heavy rain or very wet conditions, as the material can absorb water and potentially stain.

What kind of socks should I wear with these?

These shoes are versatile. You can wear them with no-show socks for a sleek look, ankle socks for standard coverage, or even crew socks to complement a sporty or casual outfit. The textile lining ensures comfort with most sock types.

How high is the platform sole?

Info needed: [Specific platform sole height in cm/inches. Assuming it's a subtle platform based on context.] The platform sole adds a noticeable but comfortable elevation, enhancing the shoe's aesthetic without being excessively high, making it suitable for daily wear.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose

Adjust the lace closure to customize the fit. Ensure laces are evenly tensioned across the foot. If the issue persists, double-check your UK shoe size against adidas's sizing chart.

Canvas upper appears dirty or stained

Gently spot clean the affected area using a soft cloth or brush with a small amount of mild soap and cold water. Rinse lightly and allow to air dry completely. Avoid abrasive cleaners or machine washing.

Platform sole feels unstable or awkward

The platform design might take a short period to get accustomed to. Start by wearing them for shorter periods on even surfaces to build confidence. Ensure laces are tied securely for stability.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes be caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing the Cloudfoam sockliner, cleaning underneath it, and then reinserting it. A sprinkle of baby powder under the sockliner can also help reduce friction.

Foot discomfort after long wear

While the Cloudfoam sockliner offers comfort, extended wear might still cause fatigue for some. Ensure the laces are not too tight. Consider adding a specialized arch support insert if you have specific foot needs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Using your adidas Women's Bravada 2.0 Platform Shoes is straightforward:

  1. Unpack: Remove the shoes from their packaging.
  2. Lace Up: Insert your foot and use the lace closure to achieve a snug yet comfortable fit. Adjust the laces evenly to prevent pressure points.
  3. Break-In: While generally comfortable from the start, a short break-in period may help your feet adjust to the platform sole and regular fit.

  • Skirts and casual dresses

Ensure you select the correct UK size for optimal comfort and fit. Refer to adidas sizing guides if unsure.

Care

Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your Bravada 2.0 Platform Shoes:

  1. Cleaning the Canvas Upper: Gently spot clean the canvas with a soft brush or cloth dipped in a solution of mild soap and cold water. Avoid harsh detergents or bleach.
  2. Drying: After cleaning, pat dry with a clean towel and allow the shoes to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the material and structure.
  3. Removing Scuffs: For minor scuffs on the platform sole, a damp cloth or a magic eraser can often be effective.
  4. Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture buildup and maintain their shape. Shoe trees can help maintain the shape during storage.
  5. Avoid Wet Conditions: The canvas upper is not waterproof. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent water damage and potential staining.
