FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The adidas Forum 84 Low is designed for lifestyle and casual wear. While inspired by basketball shoes, they are not optimized for running and lack the specific cushioning and support features of dedicated running shoes.

How do I know if I have the right size?

It is recommended to measure your foot and consult the adidas sizing chart. Trying them on in-store is the best way to ensure a proper fit, as individual foot shapes vary.

Can I wash these shoes in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather, sole, and overall structure of the shoe.

What is the 'Wild Teal' color?

The 'Wild Teal' refers to the vibrant green color used on the sole of this specific 'White Wild Teal' model, providing a contrasting accent to the white upper.

How does the Forum 84 Low compare to other adidas sneakers?

The Forum 84 Low is known for its retro aesthetic and leather construction, offering a distinct 80s vibe. It differs from more modern or athletic-focused models by emphasizing classic design and materials.

What does 'OG series' mean?

'OG' stands for Original. The OG series pays homage to the original design and influences of the Forum sneaker from its debut era.

Is the leather treated to be water-resistant?

The leather is generally treated for durability, but these shoes are not designed to be fully waterproof. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to maintain their condition.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Wear with thin socks initially and walk around to allow the leather to stretch. If still uncomfortable, consider using a shoe stretcher or exchanging for a half-size larger if possible.

Squeaking noise when walking

This can sometimes occur due to friction between the insole and the sole. Try sprinkling a little talcum powder or baking soda under the insole to absorb moisture and reduce friction.

Laces fraying or breaking

Replace laces with a new pair of standard flat shoelaces. Ensure they are the correct length for the number of eyelets.

Scuffs on the leather

Minor scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper scuffs, use a leather conditioner or a color-matched shoe cream, applying it gently with a cloth.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the Leather Upper: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water, then wipe clean with a dry cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
