FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for intense athletic activity?
While they feature classic basketball construction, they are designed primarily as lifestyle trainers and are best suited for daily wear rather than high-intensity sports.
How do I clean the metallic leather?
Only use a soft, damp cloth for spot cleaning. Never submerge them in water or place them in a washing machine.
Do these shoes run true to size?
The Forum Mid generally fits true to size, but the leather construction may feel slightly snug initially before breaking in.
Can I wear these in the rain?
While leather is water-resistant, it is best to avoid heavy rain as moisture can affect the metallic finish and the adhesive bonds.
What is the best way to lace these trainers?
The Forum Mid is designed to be laced snugly to leverage the ankle support; ensure the laces are secure but not restrictive to maintain comfort.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the toe box area
Use a shoe tree when the trainers are not in use to help maintain the leather shape and minimize permanent creasing.
Surface scuffs on the silver finish
Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth to buff the area gently. Avoid using standard leather polish as it may alter the metallic aesthetic.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Ivy Park Forum Mid trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Fit: Ensure you are wearing the correct size to prevent excessive heel slip, which can wear down the interior lining.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can dull the metallic leather finish over time.
- Cleaning: Wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh brushes or abrasive cleaners that could scratch or strip the silver coating.
- Weather Protection: Use a leather-safe water repellent spray specifically rated for metallic or treated leathers to provide a barrier against moisture.
