FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for basketball?
While based on a 1984 basketball design, this model is intended for lifestyle and casual use rather than modern athletic performance.
How should I clean the suede?
Use a dry suede brush to remove loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use products specifically labeled safe for suede.
Are these true to size?
Yes, the Forum 84 Low generally fits true to your standard UK shoe size.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can severely damage the suede material and the structural integrity of the shoe.
Are these waterproof?
No, the suede upper is not waterproof. We recommend using a water-repellent spray to provide a layer of protection against light moisture.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on the white suede
Gently use a dry suede brush to lift surface dust; avoid using water.
Creasing at the toe box
Use shoe trees when not wearing the sneakers to maintain the shape of the toe box.
Minor scuffs on the blue accents
Use a matching suede-safe cleaning block to buff out light scuffs.
