FAQs

Are the adidas Forum Mid trainers true to size?

Yes, they are generally considered to be true to size. If you prefer a looser fit or wear thick socks, you may consider going up half a size.

Can I use these for sports?

While they were originally basketball shoes, they are now designed as lifestyle trainers for casual use. They lack the high-tech performance features of modern athletic shoes.

How do I clean the leather?

Wipe with a damp, soft cloth. Use a leather-safe cleaner for tougher marks and avoid submerging the shoes in water.

Is the material real leather?

Yes, these trainers are constructed with a durable leather upper.

Are these suitable for winter?

The leather upper is more water-resistant than fabric, but they are not fully waterproof, so caution is advised in heavy rain or snow.

Troubleshooting

Leather showing creases

This is normal for genuine leather; use a shoe tree when not wearing the shoes to help them retain their shape.

Stains on white leather

Use a specialized sneaker cleaning solution and a soft-bristled brush to gently lift the stain without damaging the leather finish.

Ankle discomfort

Adjust the lace tension around the mid-top collar to allow for more flexibility and ensure you are wearing the correct size socks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your adidas Forum Mid trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines. For the initial fit, ensure the laces are loosened sufficiently to allow your foot to enter easily without crushing the heel counter. These trainers are true to size for most foot types. To care for the leather, avoid machine washing. Instead, use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap to wipe away surface dirt. For deep cleaning, apply a leather-specific cleaner and conditioner to maintain the suppleness of the material and prevent cracking. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the color vibrancy.
