FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the adidas Forum 84 Low generally fits true to your standard adult UK shoe size.
Can these be worn for basketball?
While based on a 1984 court silhouette, these are designed as lifestyle trainers and are not recommended for competitive basketball play.
How do I maintain the white leather?
Wipe them down after use and store them in a cool, dry place. For persistent stains, use a dedicated sneaker cleaning kit for leather.
Are these unisex?
While some variants are gender-specific, the Forum 84 Low design is widely considered suitable for anyone regardless of gender preference, provided the correct size is selected.
Does the shoe require special break-in?
Because of the leather upper, you may find them slightly firm at first, but they will become more comfortable and supple after a few days of regular wear.
Troubleshooting
Leather feels stiff or tight upon first wear
Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to allow the leather to naturally mold and soften to your foot shape.
Visible dirt or scuffs on white leather
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a damp cloth with mild soap; avoid abrasive sponges that might scratch the finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Forum 84 Lows in top condition, avoid prolonged exposure to harsh weather or muddy environments. Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust regularly. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap, specifically formulated for leather care, and ensure they air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent the leather from cracking. If you have chosen a size 4.5, ensure you wear them with thin or medium-thickness socks to allow for the natural expansion of the leather as it conforms to your foot shape over time.
