FAQs

What makes the CORDURA® upper special?

CORDURA® fabric is known for its exceptional durability, resistance to abrasions, tears, and scuffs, making the shoes more long-lasting than those with conventional materials.

Are these shoes suitable for playing basketball?

While inspired by classic basketball shoes, their primary design is for casual wear and skateboarding. They may not offer the specific support and cushioning required for competitive basketball.

How do I know if I've chosen the right size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by adidas and measure your foot accurately. The 'Black Grey' Forum Low is designed for a snug, supportive fit.

Can I machine wash these shoes?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, construction, and adhesives of the shoe.

What is the difference between this and other Forum models?

This specific model, the 'Black Grey' Forum Low, features a CORDURA® upper for enhanced durability and comes in a classic black and grey colorway, maintaining OG details from the 80s silhouette.

Are these shoes unisex?

Yes, the product description indicates they are suitable for unisex wear, fitting within adult sizing.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Wear with thin socks initially or try wearing them for short periods to allow the materials to break in. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size.

Soles feel slippery on wet surfaces

While designed for grip, all rubber soles can be less effective on extremely wet or polished surfaces. Ensure the sole is clean and free from debris.

Stains on the CORDURA® upper

Address stains promptly. Use a damp cloth and mild soap solution for cleaning. Test any cleaning agent on an inconspicuous area first.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable CORDURA® upper for extended lifespan.
  • Classic, retro design that remains stylish.
  • Good traction from the rubber sole.
  • Suitable for a wide range of casual activities.
  • Offers a secure and non-slip fit.

Cons

  • May require careful sizing to ensure a perfect fit.
  • Primarily designed for casual wear, not high-performance sports.
  • CORDURA® material might be stiffer than traditional leather initially.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready-to-wear shoes straight out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort.

Compatibility: Suitable for adult unisex wear. Pairs well with casual attire such as jeans, shorts, and athleisure wear. Ideal for skateboarding and general everyday use.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For stubborn marks on the CORDURA® upper, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
  2. Cleaning the Sole: The rubber sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild cleaning agent if necessary. Ensure it is completely dry before storing.
  3. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat or sunlight, which can damage the materials.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box to maintain their shape and condition.
