FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the Forum 84 Low generally fits true to size, but those with wider feet may prefer to try them on to ensure a comfortable width.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, do not wash suede shoes in a machine as the water and agitation will permanently damage the texture and color of the material.
Is the Forum 84 Low suitable for gym use?
These are considered lifestyle sneakers; they are not intended for high-intensity training or specialized gym activities.
How do I remove salt stains from the suede?
Use a mixture of white vinegar and water on a soft cloth, dabbing lightly, then brush the suede once completely dry.
Does this model come in different materials?
While this specific model uses premium suede, the Forum 84 series is available in various materials such as full-grain leather depending on the colorway.
Troubleshooting
Visible water or dirt stains on the suede
Allow the shoe to air dry completely, then use a suede brush to gently remove surface dirt before using a specialized suede eraser.
Loss of shoe shape
Use wooden or plastic shoe trees when not being worn to help the shoe retain its structure and absorb moisture.
Creasing in the toe box
This is a natural characteristic of sneaker materials; using shoe trees will minimize the severity of deep creases over time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Forum 84 Low shoes remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Initial Protection: Apply a high-quality suede-safe water and stain repellent spray before first wear.
- Routine Maintenance: Use a suede brush after each wear to lift debris and keep the nap of the material aligned.
- Spot Cleaning: If localized dirt appears, use a suede eraser or a dedicated suede cleaner rather than soap and water.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
- Compatibility: These shoes feature standard lacing systems and are compatible with most aftermarket insoles if additional arch support is required.
