FAQs

What makes the CORDURA® upper durable?

CORDURA® fabric is known for its exceptional resistance to abrasions, tears, and scuffs, making it a highly durable material for footwear intended for daily wear.

Are these shoes suitable for playing basketball?

While inspired by classic basketball shoes, the Forum Low 'Black Grey' is primarily designed for casual wear and everyday comfort. They may not offer the specialized support or performance features required for competitive basketball.

How should I care for the leather components?

Wipe leather parts with a slightly damp cloth. For deeper cleaning or conditioning, use products specifically designed for leather care, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

What does 'OG details' mean?

'OG' stands for Original. 'OG details' refers to design elements that are faithful to the original release of the adidas Forum shoe from the 1980s.

Can these shoes be worn by anyone?

The 'Black Grey' colorway is listed as unisex, meaning it can be worn by individuals of any gender, provided they select the correct size. The sizing is typically based on adult UK foot sizes.

What is the primary benefit of the rubber sole?

The rubber sole provides good traction and durability, ensuring a comfortable and secure footing for everyday activities.

Where can I find other sizes or colorways?

The product information lists several variant siblings which may include different sizes and potentially other colorways within the Forum series. Please check available listings for those options.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose.

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Refer to sizing charts and consider trying them on if possible. Laces can be adjusted for minor fit improvements.

Material appears scuffed or worn.

For minor scuffs on the CORDURA® or leather, use a damp cloth. For more significant wear, consider professional shoe cleaning or repair services.

Traction is reduced on wet surfaces.

While the rubber sole provides grip, always exercise caution on very wet or slippery surfaces. Ensure the sole is clean of any debris that might impede traction.

Compatibility: These low-top shoes are designed for adult wear and are compatible with casual attire. Their unisex design means they can be worn by individuals regardless of gender, depending on size availability.

Care: To maintain the condition of your adidas Forum Low sneakers:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the CORDURA® and leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the material.
  2. Sole Care: Use a brush or damp cloth to clean the rubber sole. Ensure any mud or debris is removed.
  3. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can warp or damage the materials.
