FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the adidas Forum Mid generally follows standard UK sizing. If you have particularly wide feet, you may find the mid-top structure slightly snug initially.
Can I use these for playing basketball?
While the Forum series has basketball origins, this specific version is designed primarily as a lifestyle trainer for casual, everyday use.
How do I keep the white leather looking new?
Regularly wipe away dirt after use and consider using a leather protector spray to guard against minor scuffs and stains.
Is the material real leather?
Yes, these trainers feature a leather upper for durability and premium texture.
What is the benefit of a mid-top shoe?
A mid-top provides more coverage and stability around the ankle than a low-top, offering a more secure feel during movement.
Troubleshooting
Leather feels too stiff during the first wear
Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to allow the leather to naturally soften and flex with your gait.
Visible dirt on the white leather
Use a soft brush to remove loose dust, followed by a dedicated leather cleaner or a slightly damp microfiber cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Forum Mids remain in top condition, proper care is essential. Since the upper is crafted from leather, avoid submerging them in water. Instead, wipe the surface clean with a damp cloth and use a mild leather-safe cleaner for tougher stains. When not wearing them, keep the shoes in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight, which can cause the white material to yellow or the leather to crack. For compatibility, these trainers lean toward a streetwear or athletic-casual aesthetic and pair best with denim or cuffed trousers that show off the mid-top profile.
