FAQs
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is made from durable CORDURA® material, known for its wear resistance.
Are these shoes suitable for sports?
These shoes are primarily designed for everyday wear and casual activities. While they offer good traction and durability, they are not intended for high-performance athletic activities.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the adidas sizing chart provided by the retailer. It is recommended to measure your foot length and compare it with the chart, as sizing can vary between models.
Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?
The CORDURA® upper offers some resistance to water, but the shoes are not fully waterproof. They can handle light moisture, but prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended. Ensure they dry thoroughly afterward.
What does 'OG details' refer to?
'OG details' refers to original design elements from the shoe's initial release, paying homage to its heritage, such as the classic logo and silhouette.
Is the sizing true to size for a unisex shoe?
Unisex sizing can sometimes differ from gender-specific sizing. It's best to consult the specific sizing guide and consider reviews for insights into fit.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels stiff initially
The CORDURA® upper and rubber sole may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time to allow them to conform to your foot.
Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces
Ensure the rubber sole is clean and free from mud or debris. While designed for grip, extreme wet conditions can still reduce traction for any footwear. Use caution.
Discoloration or marks on the upper
Use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution to gently clean the affected area. Test any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous spot first. Avoid bleach or strong solvents.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
These shoes require no specific setup. They are ready to wear out of the box.
Compatibility:
The adidas Forum Low 'Black Grey' is designed for general adult wear and is compatible with most casual outfits. It is suitable for unisex use.
Care:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to wipe away dirt and debris from the CORDURA® upper. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the material.
- Cleaning the Sole: The rubber sole can be cleaned with mild soap and water. Ensure it is completely dry before wearing.
- Drying: If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can distort their shape.
