FAQs
What makes the CORDURA® upper special?
CORDURA® fabric is known for its exceptional durability, resistance to abrasions, tears, and scuffs, making the shoes more long-lasting than those with standard uppers.
Are these shoes suitable for running or sports?
These shoes are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. While they offer good traction for everyday activities, they are not optimized for high-impact sports or professional athletic performance.
How do I ensure I get the right fit?
We recommend measuring your foot and comparing it to the size chart provided by adidas. Consider the specific model's fit, as some users find they run true to size, while others may prefer to size up or down slightly.
Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
The materials offer some resistance, but they are not fully waterproof. It is advisable to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain and to dry the shoes properly if they get wet.
What is the inspiration behind the Forum Low series?
The Forum series is inspired by the iconic adidas basketball shoes of the 1980s, featuring classic design elements and branding from that era.
Is the 'Black Grey' colorway suitable for everyone?
Yes, the 'Black Grey' color scheme is a neutral and versatile palette, making it suitable for a wide range of personal styles and outfits for both men and women.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Ensure you have selected the correct size based on accurate foot measurements.
Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces
While the rubber sole offers good grip, always exercise caution on wet or slippery surfaces. Ensure the sole is free from debris.
Upper material shows scuffs or marks
Use a damp cloth and mild soap solution to gently clean the affected areas. For persistent marks, consult specific CORDURA® cleaning guides.
