FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the adidas Forum trainers generally follow standard UK sizing, though the leather upper may feel slightly more structured than mesh trainers.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, it is highly recommended to avoid machine washing as the agitation and heat can damage the leather and the adhesives holding the sole together.

Are these suitable for gym use?

While they are sturdy, they are designed primarily as fashion lifestyle trainers rather than performance athletic equipment for high-intensity lifting or running.

How do I remove scuffs from the white leather?

A magic eraser or a damp cloth with gentle pressure can often remove surface scuffs. Always test a small, inconspicuous area first.

Do these come with different lacing options?

The trainers come with standard flat laces, but you can swap them for different colors or styles to customize the look.

Troubleshooting

Leather showing creases at the toe box

Creasing is a natural characteristic of leather footwear. Using shoe trees after wearing helps maintain the shoe's shape and minimizes deep folds.

White leather looking dull

Use a specialized white leather polish or touch-up paint designed for sneakers to restore the original brightness.

Footbed feels too firm

If you require extra arch support, you can replace the factory insoles with aftermarket orthotic inserts.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your adidas Forum trainers remain in peak condition, follow these guidelines:

  1. Fit Check: Ensure you have selected the correct UK adult size, as the leather material has a structured feel that should feel snug but not restrictive upon the first wear.
  2. Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the soles and leather upper. For deeper stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner or a damp microfiber cloth with a very mild soap solution.
  3. Moisture Prevention: Avoid fully submerging the trainers in water. If they become wet, air-dry them away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the leather from cracking or stiffening.
  4. Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the white material from yellowing over time.
