FAQs
Are the adidas Forum Mid trainers suitable for playing basketball?
While the design is basketball-inspired, this model is primarily intended for casual lifestyle wear rather than high-intensity competitive sports.
How do I know which size to choose?
These shoes follow standard adult sizing. It is recommended to choose your usual size, but refer to the product specifications for specific UK size conversions if you are between sizes.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the leather and the adhesives. Stick to hand cleaning with a soft cloth and mild soap.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is constructed from durable, high-quality leather.
Do the straps need to be worn fastened?
The straps are designed for extra stability, but you can leave them loose or remove them depending on your personal aesthetic preference.
Are these shoes water-resistant?
While leather provides some protection against light moisture, they are not waterproof. We recommend applying a leather protectant spray for added resistance.
Troubleshooting
Leather showing excessive creasing
Use shoe trees when not in use to help the leather maintain its shape and minimize deep-set creases.
Ankle strap losing its grip
Check the hook-and-loop fasteners for debris like lint or dust and remove with tweezers or a small brush to restore adhesion.
Scuff marks on the white areas
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a gentle eraser tool specifically designed for footwear to lift surface scuffs without damaging the material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your adidas Forum Mid trainers stay in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Fit: The shoes should feel snug but not restrictive; use the ankle strap to adjust the tension to your preference.
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather surface regularly with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that may damage the leather finish.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather drying and discoloration.
- Maintenance: If the leather becomes wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or heaters.
