FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the adidas Forum Low CL generally fits true to your standard UK shoe size.
Can I remove the ankle strap?
The strap is an integrated part of the design and is not intended to be removed.
Are these suitable for playing actual basketball?
While based on basketball history, these are lifestyle trainers and lack the advanced performance cushioning found in modern professional court shoes.
How do I keep the white parts from yellowing?
Keep them out of direct sunlight for extended periods and clean them regularly to prevent dirt buildup from setting into the pores of the material.
Are these shoes unisex?
While this specific model is listed as male, the design and colorway are versatile and often styled across all genders.
Troubleshooting
Visible scuffs on the white leather
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a damp magic eraser to gently lift scuffs without damaging the finish.
Creasing at the toe box
This is a natural occurrence with leather trainers. Using cedar shoe trees when not in use can help maintain the shape and minimize deep creasing.
Strap feels loose or hangs incorrectly
Ensure the velcro is clean of lint and debris to allow for a full-strength closure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the most out of your adidas Forum Low CL, ensure you use a shoe horn to avoid bending the heel counter when putting them on. Given the white colorway, it is highly recommended to apply a water-repellent spray before the first use to protect against minor liquid stains. For cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush and mild soap to gently scrub any accumulated dirt from the leather panels. Avoid machine washing, as this can degrade the adhesives used in the sole construction. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent yellowing of the white materials.
