FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for playing basketball?
The Forum 84 is inspired by 80s basketball shoes and offers good ankle support for casual play. However, for serious or professional basketball, dedicated performance basketball shoes are recommended.
How do I clean the leather upper?
Wipe the leather with a damp cloth and mild soap. For deeper cleaning or conditioning, use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner. Always test products on an inconspicuous area first.
What is the warranty period for these trainers?
Warranty information typically varies by retailer and region. Please refer to the purchase documentation or the retailer's website for specific warranty details.
Can I wear these trainers in wet conditions?
While the leather offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or standing water. Consider using a water-repellent spray specifically designed for leather footwear.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
Yes, the Adidas Forum 84 series is available in various colorways. This guide specifically covers the 'Off White Dark Green' variant. Please check the product listing or adidas website for other available options.
How should I store my Forum 84 trainers when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape, and keeping them in a dust bag or their original box is recommended.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels incorrect
Ensure you have measured your foot accurately according to adidas sizing guidelines. Consider trying on a pair in-store if possible, or consult customer reviews for insights on whether the shoe runs large or small. Different widths may also affect fit.
Ankle strap is uncomfortable or rubs
Adjust the strap to a less constrictive setting. Ensure your socks are pulled up properly to create a barrier. The leather may also soften and become more comfortable with wear.
Sole feels stiff during initial wear
The premium leather and construction may require a break-in period. Wear the shoes for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Flexing the shoe gently with your hands can also help.
