FAQs

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is primarily made of premium leather, with perforations for breathability.

How do I adjust the fit of the shoe?

You can adjust the fit using the traditional lacing system and the signature white leather hook-and-loop strap over the laces.

Is this shoe suitable for sports?

The adidas Forum Mid White Black is designed as a lifestyle sneaker for casual wear and fashion. While it offers comfort and traction, it is not specialized for high-impact athletic performance.

How should I clean the white leather parts?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For tougher stains, a mild leather cleaner applied sparingly with a soft cloth is recommended. Always allow to air dry.

What is the origin of the Forum Mid design?

The design is inspired by an iconic basketball silhouette from the 1980s, updated with premium materials and a classic colorway.

Does the shoe offer good ankle support?

Yes, the mid-top silhouette is designed to provide a degree of ankle support.

What is the purpose of the strap?

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight or loose.

Adjust the lacing system and the hook-and-loop strap to achieve a personalized, secure fit. Ensure the laces are evenly tensioned.

Leather appears scuffed or dirty.

Gently clean with a damp cloth. For persistent marks, use a dedicated leather cleaner applied with a soft cloth, following product instructions.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.

The rubber outsole is designed for multidirectional traction. Ensure the soles are clean of debris. For very slick surfaces, exercise caution.
