FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for playing basketball?
The adidas Forum Low 'Black Grey' is inspired by classic basketball shoes and features a durable design. However, they are primarily intended for casual wear and lifestyle use, not for high-performance athletic activities like competitive basketball.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is made with a durable CORDURA® material, known for its resistance to abrasions, tears, and scuffs, making it suitable for everyday wear.
How do I clean the rubber sole?
You can clean the rubber sole with a soft brush or damp cloth and a mild soap solution. Wipe it clean with a damp cloth afterwards.
What is the best way to dry these shoes if they get wet?
Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid using direct heat sources like hairdryers or radiators, as they can damage the shoe's materials.
Are these shoes unisex?
Yes, the adidas Forum Low 'Black Grey' is designed as a unisex shoe, suitable for adult wearers regardless of gender.
What is the benefit of the Forum series?
The Forum series represents a legacy of iconic adidas footwear, combining classic designs with modern updates. This particular model brings OG details and durable materials from that heritage.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the materials to break in and mold to your feet. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in period if needed.
Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces
While the rubber sole provides good grip, performance on extremely wet surfaces may be reduced. Wipe the soles clean and dry them before use. For significantly slippery conditions, exercise caution.
Dirt or stains on the CORDURA® upper
Gently scrub the affected area with a soft brush and a mild soap and water solution. Wipe clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.

Care:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and a cloth, then wipe clean with fresh water.
