FAQs
What material is the adidas Forum Low 'White Black' made of?
The upper is primarily crafted from leather, and it features a rubber sole.
Is this shoe suitable for athletic performance?
The Forum Low is designed as a lifestyle sneaker for everyday wear and comfort, not for high-impact athletic activities.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Refer to adidas sizing charts. The adjustable ankle strap also allows for some customization of fit around the ankle.
Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
While the leather and rubber offer some protection, these are not waterproof. It's best to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or puddles.
What is the significance of the ankle strap?
The ankle strap is an iconic design element from the original 1980s Forum model, providing support and a distinct retro aesthetic.
How should I clean the white leather?
Use a soft brush or damp cloth with mild soap. For stubborn marks, a specialized leather cleaner is recommended. Avoid machine washing.
What size is this specific product guide for?
This guide is for the adidas Forum Low 'White Black' in a UK size 5.5.
Troubleshooting
Scuffs and marks on leather
Gently clean with a damp cloth and a mild soap. For tougher marks, use a dedicated leather cleaner. Consider a leather protector spray for future resistance.
Ankle strap feels too tight or loose
Adjust the hook-and-loop fastener on the ankle strap to achieve a comfortable and secure fit. Ensure it's snug but not cutting off circulation.
Slight creasing on the leather upper
This is natural with leather footwear. To minimize creasing, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use.
Soles appear dirty
Use a soft brush and a mixture of water and mild soap to clean the rubber sole. A magic eraser can also be effective on stubborn dirt.

Care Instructions:
