FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?

No, the adidas Bravada Lifestyle Canvas Trainers are designed for casual, everyday wear and comfort. They are not intended for high-performance athletic activities like running or intense sports.

How do I clean the canvas material?

We recommend spot cleaning the canvas with a soft brush or cloth, mild soap, and cold water. Avoid machine washing or using harsh detergents, as these can damage the material and construction.

Are these true to size?

adidas trainers generally run true to size. However, fit can vary slightly by individual foot shape. We recommend trying them on to ensure the best fit, especially if you are between sizes.

What is Cloudfoam cushioning?

Cloudfoam is an adidas cushioning technology that provides superior underfoot comfort. It's designed to be soft and responsive, offering a plush feel for all-day wear.

What does 'Better Cotton' mean?

The cotton used in these trainers is sourced through adidas' partnership with Better Cotton. This initiative aims to sustainably improve cotton production globally, benefiting cotton farmers and the environment.

Are these trainers heavy due to the platform sole?

While featuring a thick platform sole for style, these trainers are designed with comfort in mind. The platform adds a modern look and some height without making the shoes excessively heavy for everyday wear.

Can I wear these trainers in the rain?

The canvas upper is not waterproof. While suitable for light dampness, we recommend avoiding heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent the shoes from getting saturated and to help maintain their appearance.

Troubleshooting

Canvas appears dirty or stained.

Gently spot clean the affected area with a soft cloth or brush, using a small amount of mild soap and cold water. Avoid scrubbing aggressively to prevent damage to the canvas fabric.

Trainers feel less comfortable over time.

Ensure the Cloudfoam cushioning has not become overly compressed; this typically takes a long time. If comfort significantly decreases, check if the insoles are removable and consider replacing them with new ones if wear is visible. Also, ensure they are properly broken in.

Slipping on certain surfaces.

While the durable rubber outsole provides excellent traction, check the sole for excessive wear, especially on the tread pattern. Ensure the soles are clean and free of embedded debris or oils that could reduce grip. Avoid wearing on extremely slick or icy surfaces.

Care

To ensure the longevity and appearance of your canvas trainers:

  • Cleaning: For general dirt and scuffs on the canvas, gently spot clean with a soft brush or cloth moistened with mild soap and cold water. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing, as this can damage the canvas and sole. For the rubber sole, a damp cloth or soft brush can remove grime.
  • Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, which can cause the canvas to fade or the rubber to warp.
  • Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Stuffing them lightly with paper can help maintain their shape.
  • Maintenance: Regularly check the laces for wear and the outsole for embedded debris to prevent premature wear and maintain traction.
