FAQs
What makes the Home Alone 2 edition special?
This edition is special due to its collaboration with the Home Alone movie franchise, featuring unique design elements like a graphic on the tongue and a themed Velcro strap, along with a distinctive wool lining.
What materials are the shoes made of?
The shoes feature a predominantly Charcoal Solid Grey suede upper with Crystal White and Grey leather accents. The lining and insole are made of wool.
Are these shoes suitable for athletic performance?
These shoes are primarily designed for casual wear and style. While they have a durable rubber outsole for traction, they are not intended for high-impact athletic activities.
How should I clean the suede parts of the shoe?
For suede, use a soft brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, a suede eraser or a slightly damp cloth can be used cautiously. Avoid getting the suede excessively wet.
What is the sizing like for these shoes?
The sizing is generally consistent with other adidas Forum 84 Low models. It's recommended to refer to the adidas sizing chart for the most accurate fit, especially considering the UK sizing provided.
Can the Velcro strap be removed?

What kind of tread pattern does the outsole have?
The rubber outsole features a circular tread pattern designed to provide reliable traction and stability.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or stained
Use a suede eraser for dry marks. For tougher stains, try a specialized suede cleaner or a lightly dampened cloth, blotting gently. Always allow to air dry completely.
Leather accents are scuffed
Use a leather conditioner to help mask minor scuffs and restore the finish. For deeper scuffs, professional leather repair might be necessary.
Velcro strap losing grip
Ensure the Velcro surfaces are clean and free of debris. You can try gently cleaning them with a soft brush or a damp cloth. If wear is significant, the strap may need replacement.
Unusual odor inside the shoe
Ensure the shoes are completely dry. Use a shoe deodorizer or place baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors. Allow them to air out in a well-ventilated area.
