FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for athletic performance?

The adidas Forum 84 Low is designed primarily for casual wear and fashion. While they offer comfort for everyday activities, they are not engineered for high-impact sports or specific athletic training.

How do I determine my correct UK size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by adidas or consult reputable footwear guides. Generally, measure your foot length from heel to toe and compare it to the UK sizing guide.

Can the leather upper be waterproofed?

While not typically recommended for this style of leather, you can use a specific leather waterproofing spray designed for fashion footwear. Test on an inconspicuous area first, and be aware it may slightly alter the texture or color.

What is the primary inspiration for the Forum 84 Low design?

The Forum 84 Low is inspired by classic archive basketball sneakers from the 1980s, featuring design elements and colorways that pay homage to those original models.

How should I care for the scarlet accents?

The scarlet details are typically part of the leather or synthetic overlays. Clean them gently with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could remove the color.

What are the main differences between the Forum 84 Low and other Forum models?

The '84' designation often signifies a more faithful recreation of the original 1984 design, potentially using materials and construction closer to the vintage models compared to later iterations.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight initially.

Leather will stretch and conform to your foot with wear. Consider wearing them for short periods initially or using thicker socks to help break them in.

Scuff marks on the leather.

Use a specialized leather cleaner or a magic eraser gently on the affected area. For deeper scuffs, a leather repair balm may be effective.

Squeaking sound when walking.

This can sometimes occur due to friction between parts of the shoe. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or a silicone-based lubricant to the tongue or insole area.

Discoloration of the white leather.

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or abrasive surfaces. Clean regularly with appropriate leather care products to maintain the white color.
