FAQs
What is the primary material of the adidas Forum 84 Low?
The primary material for the upper of the adidas Forum 84 Low is leather, providing durability and a premium feel.
How do these 'White Wild Teal' sneakers fit?
The fit is generally considered true to size for most individuals. It's recommended to refer to adidas' official sizing chart for the most accurate measurement based on your foot length.
Are these suitable for playing basketball?
While inspired by basketball heritage, these are designed as lifestyle/casual wear sneakers. They are not recommended for actual athletic performance like playing basketball due to differences in construction and support compared to performance basketball shoes.
How should I clean the 'Wild Teal' sole?
The rubber sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. Gently scrub away dirt and grime, then wipe clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.
What does 'OG' series mean for the Forum 84?
The 'OG' designation signifies that the design pays homage to the original Forum silhouette from its debut era, emphasizing its timeless and authentic heritage.
Can I wear these with socks?
Yes, these sneakers are designed to be worn with socks. Standard athletic or casual socks are recommended for comfort.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking noise from shoes
This can sometimes occur with new leather shoes. Try wearing them for a few more hours to allow them to break in, or apply a small amount of talcum powder or saddle soap to the tongue area where it rubs against the shoe collar.
Laces not staying tied
Ensure you are tying a secure double knot. If the laces are particularly smooth, you might consider replacing them with a different material or texture that holds a knot better.
Leather appears dry or creased
Apply a leather conditioner specifically designed for footwear to moisturize the material. This will help reduce the appearance of creases and maintain the leather's suppleness.
