FAQs

Are these shoes good for beginners?

Yes, the Forum 84 Low ADV offers good support and board feel, making them suitable for beginner skateboarders.

What is the main difference between the ADV and the original Forum 84?

The ADV (Skateboarding) version is engineered with skate-specific features like a more durable upper, a vulcanized outsole for better grip and board feel, and enhanced cushioning for impact.

How durable is the leather upper for skateboarding?

The leather is chosen for its durability against abrasion from griptape and general wear and tear associated with skateboarding.

Can I wear these for other sports?

While stylish for casual wear, they are specifically designed and optimized for skateboarding. They may not provide adequate support or protection for other high-impact sports.

How do I clean the gum sole?

Use a damp cloth and a soft brush. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the material.

What is the sizing like for these shoes?

Adidas skate shoes generally fit true to size, but it's always recommended to check a sizing chart or try them on if possible, as individual foot shapes can vary.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight during initial wear.

This is common as the leather molds to your foot. Wear them for shorter periods initially and gradually increase wear time. Laces can be adjusted for comfort.

Reduced grip on the skateboard.

Ensure the rubber sole is clean and free from debris. Skateboarding in wet conditions can temporarily affect grip.

Laces fraying quickly.

This can occur with heavy skateboarding. Consider using replacement laces designed for skate shoes, which are often more durable.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable construction suitable for skateboarding.
  • Excellent board feel and grip from the vulcanized sole.
  • Comfortable and supportive fit for extended wear.
  • Classic and versatile design that looks good on and off the board.
  • Authentic branding and quality associated with Adidas Skateboarding.

Cons

  • May require a break-in period for maximum comfort.
  • Limited colorways compared to some other models.
  • Primarily designed for skateboarding, not necessarily for high-impact sports other than skating.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready to wear out of the box, though a short break-in period is recommended for optimal comfort and fit. Ensure laces are tied securely but not overly tight to allow for natural foot movement.

Compatibility: Designed primarily for skateboarding. Compatible with most skateboard decks and grip tape.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or soaking the shoes in water. For the rubber sole, a brush can help remove dirt.
  • Drying: Air dry shoes away from direct heat sources. Stuffing with paper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
