FAQs
What are the primary materials used in the Forum 84 Low Candy Cane?
The upper is constructed from a combination of premium leather, suede, and synthetic overlays.
Is this shoe suitable for playing basketball?
While inspired by a basketball shoe, the Forum 84 Low Candy Cane is designed as a lifestyle or casual trainer and is not recommended for intense athletic activities like basketball.
How do I adjust the midfoot strap?
The midfoot strap typically fastens with hook-and-loop closures. Adjust it to your preferred tightness for a secure and comfortable fit.
What does 'Candy Cane' refer to in the name?
The 'Candy Cane' name and colorway refer to the bright red accents found on the otherwise white and cream shoe, reminiscent of the popular holiday treat.
How should I clean the red accents?
Clean the red accents gently with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could affect the color or material.
Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
These trainers are not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the leather and suede materials.
What sizes are available?
The Forum 84 Low Candy Cane is available in various adult UK sizes. Please check the product details or size selector for specific availability.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on leather or suede
Minor creasing is normal with wear. For significant creasing, use shoe trees to help maintain shape when not in use. Avoid over-tightening laces.
Red color transfer from accents
Ensure the shoes are dry before wearing them with light-colored socks or trousers. If transfer occurs, clean the affected clothing item according to its care label.
Discomfort or rubbing
Ensure you have the correct size. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods. Use thicker socks if needed during the break-in phase. The midfoot strap can be adjusted for a better fit.
Soles becoming less grippy
Clean the outsole thoroughly to remove any embedded dirt or debris that might be reducing grip. For worn-down tread, professional sole repair may be considered.

Care Instructions:

- Soles: Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth. For tougher dirt, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by rinsing with a clean, damp cloth.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
