FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the adidas Forum 84 Low generally fits true to your standard UK shoe size.
Can these be worn for playing basketball?
While they are inspired by classic basketball shoes, modern performance trainers offer more specialized support for high-impact sports.
How do I best clean the white leather?
Use a damp cloth and mild leather soap. Avoid harsh chemicals and never submerge the shoes in water.
Does the leather stretch over time?
The leather upper is durable and retains its shape well, meaning it will not stretch out significantly like mesh or knit fabric.
What gender is this shoe for?
This specific model is designed for men, though the Forum series also includes unisex sizing options.
Troubleshooting
Creasing at the toe box
Use a shoe tree when not wearing the trainers to help maintain the leather's shape and minimize deep-set creases.
Dirt stains on white leather
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft-bristled brush with a gentle soap solution; avoid soaking the leather.
Squeaking sound when walking
This is often caused by humidity or moisture under the insole; remove the insole, let it dry, or apply a light dusting of talcum powder beneath it.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Forum 84 Low trainers remain in top condition, it is recommended to apply a leather-safe water and stain repellent spray before the first wear. Since these are leather shoes, avoid machine washing; instead, wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap to remove stains. If the leather begins to dry or crack, use a high-quality leather conditioner to maintain flexibility. For sizing, ensure you verify your specific UK size, as the leather material provides a structured fit that does not stretch significantly over time.
