FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the adidas Forum Low generally fits true to your standard size. If you prefer a looser fit for thicker socks, consider a half-size up.
Can I use these for playing basketball?
While based on a court design, these are lifestyle sneakers. For competitive basketball, modern performance footwear is recommended.
How do I clean the white sections of the shoe?
Use a damp cloth with a mild leather-safe detergent and wipe gently, then buff dry with a clean microfiber cloth.
Are these suitable for rainy weather?
While leather is water-resistant, it is not waterproof. Avoid heavy rain to prevent water staining and material degradation.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are typically removable if you need to insert custom orthotics for better support.
Are these sneakers unisex?
While some models are listed as male-specific, the style is universally appreciated and can be worn by anyone given the right size conversion.
Troubleshooting
Leather showing creases from walking
Creasing is a natural characteristic of leather; using shoe trees after wear can help minimize deep set lines.
Scuff marks on the white leather
Use a specialized leather eraser or a soft cloth with a tiny amount of mild soapy water to gently buff out marks.
Laces becoming untied frequently
Ensure the laces are threaded properly through the eyelets and consider using a double knot for a more secure fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your adidas Forum Low sneakers last as long as possible, it is essential to follow proper care routines.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt. For deeper stains, use a damp cloth with a mild leather cleaner. Never machine wash these shoes.
- Drying: Always air dry at room temperature away from direct sunlight or heat sources, which can cause the leather to crack.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place and use shoe trees to maintain the structural integrity of the toe box.
- Protection: Consider applying a leather protectant spray to repel water and prevent minor scuffing before your first wear.
