FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for professional skateboarding?

The Forum 84 Low ADV models are designed with enhanced strength and durability, making them suitable for skateboarding. However, for professional-level, high-impact skateboarding, dedicated skate shoes might offer additional specialized features.

What is the primary material of the 'White Gum' trainers?

The primary material for the upper is leather, providing a premium feel and contributing to the shoe's durability. The sole is made of rubber.

How should I clean the gum sole?

Wipe the gum sole with a damp cloth. For stubborn scuffs, a non-abrasive rubber sole cleaner or a magic eraser can be used, but always test on a small, hidden area first.

Can these trainers be worn in wet conditions?

While the leather can withstand light moisture, they are not waterproof. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or submersion in water. Ensure they are dried properly if they get wet.

What is the meaning of 'ADV' in Forum 84 Low ADV?

ADV typically stands for 'Advanced' and signifies a version of a classic design that has been updated with features for improved performance, comfort, and durability, often tailored for specific activities like skateboarding.

What is the warranty period for adidas trainers?

adidas typically offers a warranty against manufacturing defects. Specific warranty periods can vary by region and retailer, so it's best to check with the seller or adidas directly for detailed information.

Are these trainers true to size?

Based on general feedback for this model, they are often considered true to size. However, individual fit can vary. It is recommended to consult size charts and consider trying them on if possible.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Wear with thin socks initially and allow the leather to break in. Consider using a shoe stretcher if the tightness persists.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Ensure laces are tied correctly and that there is no debris trapped in the sole. A small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help.

Discoloration on the white leather

Gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn marks, consider a leather cleaner specifically for white leather.

Gum sole scuffs

Try a magic eraser or a specialized shoe cleaner for rubber soles. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
