FAQs
What material are these shoes made of?
The upper is primarily made of soft white leather with scarlet details.
Are these shoes suitable for sports?
These shoes are designed for casual wear and everyday comfort, not for high-performance athletic activities.
How should I clean the leather upper?
Wipe with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher dirt, use a mild soap solution sparingly and rinse with a clean, damp cloth. Always air dry.
What does the '84' in Forum 84 Low refer to?
The '84' likely refers to the original year of release or inspiration for the design, nodding to its archival roots.
Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
While the leather offers some protection, these shoes are not waterproof. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain. Using a leather protector can add some water resistance.
How do I know if I have the right size?
It is recommended to try them on if possible, as sizing can vary. Refer to the brand's sizing chart and consider that leather shoes may stretch slightly with wear.
What kind of socks are best to wear with these?
Any type of casual sock works well. Wearing socks is recommended for comfort and to help maintain the shoe's interior.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Wear with thin socks initially or consider stretching them with appropriate shoe stretchers. Break them in gradually with short periods of wear.
Leather shows creases or scuffs
Minor creases are natural with leather. For scuffs, use a leather conditioner or a color-matched polish. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
Ensure the rubber soles are clean. If the issue persists on very smooth or wet surfaces, consider the limitations of the shoe's grip for such conditions.
