FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for sports?

The adidas Forum 84 High trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle. While they offer support, they are not intended for high-impact sports or intense athletic training.

How do I know if I have the correct size?

Refer to the adidas sizing chart and compare your foot measurements. The Forum 84 High in UK 8.5 is designed for a specific foot length, and trying them on if possible is recommended.

What is the primary material used?

The trainers are constructed with durable leather, providing a classic look and feel.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the leather offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the material.

How do I clean the yellow accents?

The yellow accents can typically be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap, similar to the white leather. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the color.

What is the key difference from the original 1984 model?

While inspired by the 1984 design, these trainers incorporate modern comfort technologies and potentially updated materials for enhanced wearability and durability.

Troubleshooting

Laces are difficult to tie or keep tied

Ensure the laces are fully threaded through the eyelets and tied using a secure knot. Consider replacing the laces if they are worn or slippery.

Slight stiffness during initial wear

This is common with leather footwear. Wear the trainers for short periods initially to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape.

Discoloration on the white leather

Wipe gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. For tougher stains, a specialized leather cleaner may be effective. Test on an inconspicuous area first.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready-to-wear footwear. No setup is required beyond lacing them to your preferred tightness.

Compatibility: The Forum 84 High trainers are designed for adult wear and are compatible with most casual attire. They pair well with jeans, shorts, and casual trousers.

Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your trainers:

  1. Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: If the trainers become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the leather.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
