FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for sports?

These trainers are designed for casual wear and general daily use. While they offer a non-slip sole, they are not specialized sports shoes and may not provide the required support or cushioning for intense athletic activities.

What is the best way to clean the white leather?

Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth with a mild soap solution. For tougher stains, a dedicated white leather cleaner is recommended. Always wipe away any residue and allow to air dry.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Ensure there is a small amount of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. Your heel should feel secure and not lift excessively when you walk. Trying them on at the end of the day, when your feet are slightly larger, can be helpful.

Can the orange accents be cleaned?

The orange accents are typically part of the material or a painted finish. Clean them gently with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh scrubbing or chemical cleaners that could affect the color.

What kind of socks are best with these mid-top trainers?

Socks that come up to or slightly above the ankle cuff are generally best to prevent chafing and complete the look. Athletic or casual crew socks work well.

Is the 'White Black Orange' colorway unisex?

While this specific product variant is listed for men, the Forum Mid silhouette and colorways are often embraced by all genders. However, sizing and fit are typically based on men's standards.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Try wearing them with thinner socks. If they remain uncomfortable, consider if an alternative size would be more appropriate, especially if they are brand new and the leather has not yet molded to your foot.

Leather shows scuffs or marks

Use a specialized leather cleaner and a soft cloth to gently remove the marks. For deeper scuffs, a colored leather cream might help to restore the appearance.

Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces

Ensure the sole is clean and free from mud or debris. While designed for grip, some highly polished or wet surfaces may still present a reduced traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready-to-wear shoes. Ensure you have selected the correct size before wearing them for the first time.

Compatibility: Suitable for adult males. Can be paired with a wide range of casual attire, including jeans, shorts, and track pants.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a slightly damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, use a dedicated leather cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
  • Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators, as this can damage the leather.
  • Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to guard against water and stains, especially for the white leather sections.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain the shape of the trainers.
