FAQs
What material are the adidas Forum 84 Hi 'Orbit Grey' trainers made of?
These trainers primarily feature a suede upper with leather accents and a durable rubber sole.
Are these trainers suitable for athletic performance?
The Forum 84 Hi is designed as a lifestyle and casual wear sneaker. While comfortable and durable, they are not intended for high-impact athletic activities.
How should I clean the suede parts of the trainers?
Use a suede brush for dry dirt. For stains, employ a specialized suede cleaner and allow them to air dry away from direct heat.
What does 'Orbit Grey' refer to?
'Orbit Grey' is the specific colorway name for this model, indicating a grey and white palette.
Do these trainers offer good ankle support?
Yes, as a high-top trainer, the Forum 84 Hi is designed to provide enhanced ankle support compared to low-top models.
What is the main inspiration for the Forum 84 Hi series?
The Forum 84 Hi series is inspired by classic adidas basketball shoes from the 1980s, with this specific model drawing from the 'Grey Track' GR.
Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?
While the rubber sole offers some protection, suede is not inherently waterproof and can be damaged by excessive moisture. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or stained
Gently brush with a suede brush. For stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow product instructions carefully. Allow to air dry completely.
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If the issue persists, consider if the size is correct or if the shoe requires a break-in period. Suede and leather can stretch slightly over time.
Laces are worn or damaged
Replace laces with a new pair of a similar length and material. Standard trainer laces are widely available.
Sole is separating slightly
For minor separation, a flexible shoe adhesive designed for rubber and leather can be used. For significant damage, consult a professional shoe repair service.
