FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for athletic sports?
While based on basketball designs, these are primarily fashion trainers meant for casual daily use rather than high-intensity performance sports.
Do the adidas Forum Mid trainers fit true to size?
Yes, they generally fit true to standard adult sizing, though individuals with wider feet may prefer to try them on for the most accurate fit.
Can I use leather conditioner on these shoes?
Yes, using a high-quality leather conditioner periodically can help keep the leather supple and prevent it from drying out.
What is the best way to clean the white leather parts?
Use a specialized leather cleaner and a soft microfiber cloth; avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive sponges.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The leather construction provides some resistance to light moisture, but they are not waterproof and should not be submerged in water.
Are these considered unisex?
Yes, the adidas Forum Mid is designed as a unisex trainer suitable for all adults regardless of gender.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the leather toe box
Use shoe trees when not wearing the trainers to help maintain the structure and minimize deep set creases.
Scuff marks on the white leather
Apply a gentle leather-safe eraser or a damp cloth with mild soap to buff out surface-level marks.
Laces coming undone frequently
Ensure the laces are threaded properly through all eyelets and try a double-knot if the standard bow does not hold.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting the most out of your adidas Forum Mid trainers begins with selecting the correct size; as these are standard fit, your usual size should provide the best comfort. To maintain the shoes, avoid machine washing as this can compromise the leather integrity. Instead, use a soft-bristled brush to remove loose dirt and a damp cloth with mild leather cleaner for stains. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the leather to crack over time.
