FAQs

What is the primary material of the adidas Forum Mid 'White Black'?

The upper is primarily constructed from premium leather, with synthetic materials used for elements like the mudguard and three stripes.

How does the hook-and-loop strap function?

The hook-and-loop strap goes over the laces and allows for an adjustable, secure fit that can be tightened or loosened as needed for comfort and support.

Are these shoes suitable for athletic performance?

The Forum Mid is designed as a lifestyle sneaker inspired by basketball heritage. While comfortable and supportive for casual wear and light activity, they are not optimized for high-intensity athletic performance compared to specialized sports footwear.

How should I clean the white leather?

Use a soft, damp cloth for general cleaning. For tougher stains, a mild leather cleaner applied with a soft cloth is recommended. Avoid excessive water and harsh detergents.

What is the sizing like for this model?

Sizing can vary. It is recommended to consult the official adidas sizing guide and consider customer reviews regarding fit. Some users may find they need to size up or down slightly.

When were these released?

The adidas Forum Mid 'White Black' was released on July 12, 2021.

What type of traction does the outsole offer?

The black rubber outsole features circular treads designed for multidirectional traction and stability on various surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels incorrect.

Refer to the adidas sizing chart and compare measurements carefully. If possible, try on a pair in-store or consider ordering half a size up or down based on reviews and personal fit preference.

Leather shows creases or minor scuffs.

Minor creases are natural with leather. For scuffs, use a leather conditioner or a specialized leather balm to buff them out. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces.

The rubber outsole provides traction, but performance can vary on extremely smooth or wet surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean. For enhanced grip on specific terrains, consider aftermarket traction solutions if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct size.

Compatibility: The adidas Forum Mid 'White Black' is a versatile lifestyle shoe compatible with casual wear such as jeans, shorts, and athleisure outfits.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Leather: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. For stubborn marks, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid soaking the shoes.
  2. Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: A damp cloth or a soft brush can be used to clean the rubber and foam components. Ensure all cleaning agents are mild.
