FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for basketball?
While based on an 84 basketball design, this model is intended for lifestyle and casual use, not modern competitive sports.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is constructed from high-quality durable leather.
How should I clean the leather?
Use a damp cloth for regular cleaning and apply a leather-specific protector to maintain the finish.
Do they run true to size?
Yes, they generally run true to standard UK adult sizing.
Can I replace the insoles?
The shoes feature an integrated lining, but the internal footbed can accommodate custom orthotics if necessary.
Are these sneakers waterproof?

Troubleshooting
Leather feeling stiff after purchase
Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to allow the leather to naturally conform to your foot shape.
Surface dirt accumulation on the textured sole
Use a soft-bristled brush with a small amount of mild soap and water to scrub the grooves of the outsole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Forum 84 Low trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Sizing: These shoes fit true to size. Ensure you wear them with comfortable socks to break in the leather upper.
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather cracking and color fading.
- Maintenance: Use a leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and prevent scuffing.
