FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for playing basketball?

While the Forum Mid trainers draw inspiration from basketball heritage and offer ankle support, they are primarily designed for casual wear. For playing basketball, specialized performance footwear is recommended.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by adidas for accurate measurements. The trainers are designed with a unisex fit, so ensure you select the appropriate size for your foot.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

The trainers are not waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, prolonged exposure to heavy rain may damage the materials. It's best to avoid wearing them in very wet conditions.

What is the main difference between high-top and low-top trainers?

High-top trainers, like the Forum Mid, extend above the ankle providing more support and a distinct style. Low-top trainers typically end below the ankle, offering more freedom of movement.

How often should I clean my Forum Mid trainers?

Clean your trainers as needed, based on the frequency of wear and the conditions they are exposed to. A general wipe-down after each significant wear can help maintain their appearance.

Is the hook-and-loop strap adjustable?

Yes, the hook-and-loop strap allows for additional adjustment to secure the fit around the ankle, complementing the lacing system.

What materials are the adidas Forum Mid trainers made of?

The specific materials can vary slightly by production batch, but they typically feature a combination of leather and synthetic materials for the upper, with a rubber sole.

Troubleshooting

Fit feels too tight or loose

Adjust the laces and the hook-and-loop strap for a personalized fit. If the overall size is incorrect, consider exchanging for a different size.

Squeaking noise during walking

This can sometimes occur with new footwear. Try wearing them for a few days to break them in. If the noise persists, check if the insoles are properly seated.

Discoloration of materials

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or harsh chemicals. Clean according to the care instructions using appropriate cleaning agents for leather and synthetic materials.

Hook-and-loop strap losing adhesion

Ensure the strap and the corresponding surface are clean and free of debris. Gently press the strap down firmly after fastening. If adhesion is significantly degraded, it may indicate wear and tear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The adidas Forum Mid trainers require no specific setup. Upon receiving them, ensure they are the correct size. The closure system typically involves laces and a hook-and-loop strap, which should be adjusted for a snug but comfortable fit before wear.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for unisex adult wear and are compatible with a wide range of casual clothing styles, including jeans, shorts, joggers, and casual dresses. They are not intended for high-intensity athletic performance in sports like basketball or running, where specialized footwear is recommended.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For tougher stains on the leather or synthetic upper, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. Avoid machine washing.
  2. Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe box or dust bag to protect them from dust and damage.
