adidas FORUM Low - Black - Low Shoes - UK 11

These shoes are primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle. While they offer good traction and support for walking, they are not engineered for high-impact sports or athletic performance.

It is recommended to consult the adidas sizing chart and consider trying them on if possible, as fit can vary. Many users find them to be true to size, but the leather upper will also stretch slightly over time.

Use a damp cloth with a bit of mild soap or a specialized shoe cleaner. A magic eraser can also be effective for removing scuffs from the rubber midsole.

While the leather can offer some resistance, these shoes are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain or puddles may lead to water damage and should be avoided. Ensure they are properly dried if they get wet.

The primary material for the upper of the adidas FORUM Low 'Black' IG7596 is leather.

Yes, the hook-and-loop strap is functional and designed to provide an additional, adjustable way to secure the shoe for a personalized fit.

This is common with leather shoes. Wear them for short periods indoors to allow the leather to break in and mold to your foot. Adjusting the laces and strap can also help.

Replace the laces with a new pair of standard athletic shoe laces. Consider using wax-coated laces for added durability.

For minor scuffs, try gently buffing with a soft cloth. For deeper marks, use a leather cleaner or a black shoe polish/cream specifically designed for leather, followed by buffing.

Ensure the rubber soles are clean and free from debris. If the issue persists, especially on very smooth or wet surfaces, consider the natural limitations of rubber traction.
