I'm a sneaker freak, and I adore crisp white trainers to pull any look together. Adidas makes great quality shoes-especially for the price point-and these Forum Lo trainers are no exception. I'm an 8.5 and I purchased the men's 7.5 (these are unisex); they fit perfectly. Even better, they came super-fast. I bought my Nike Air Force 1s from Finish Line and when I went looking for these I knew just where to purchase them from. Would definitely recommend both the shoes and the store.

ASOS have flash sales which makes products like this worth looking into.Luckily I read reviews prior to purchasing regarding fit on foot especially slightly wider feet.I’m normally size 9/9.5 and I saw these are narrow on the toe box so I took a chance and went with 9.5 instead of 9 perfect fit and very comfy.Best thing is the strap add security and if u do go up 0.5 size just wear slightly thicker socks and does the trick.Will buy another pair all white.

I've always been a fan of Adidas products. So, I am a bit biased in my opinion. However, I fell in love with the Adidas Forum back in 1989. Our Central High School JV basketball team played against Roxborough High's JV. Their squad loved to trap after every made basket. We were having some issues getting the ball up the court. Our point guard, Tony for some reason got fired up. Tony was from North Philadelphia. He didn't like the idea that a bunch of dudes (from a neighborhood he didn't respect) were putting the clamps on our offense. After a time out, I inbound the ball to the shooting guard. The trap comes rapidly. He swings it to Tony. Tony dribbles into the trap on purpose. I was certain he would turn the ball over. What I witnessed after that was pure magic.

To be honest, I'm not sure what I saw. Tony broke the ankles of one defender and dribbled through the legs of another defender. He got through the trap, spun on another defender in the paint, and laid the ball up for two. Tony wore blue and white Adidas (low top) Forums. From that moment on, I was a fan of the shoe. To me, the shoe is comfortable. I generally pair it with an Adidas sweatsuit or jeans. It isn't as iconic as the Pro Model, but if you're around "Old School" basketball players, I'm sure they'll respect your style choice.

The shoes were far more comfortable than I originally thought.What makes this shoe specifically better than most hi-tops is the padding that surrounds your foot from the base of the heel all the way up towards the ankle, which also supports the true to size fit.They look great, especially when paired with jeans. I'm going out of my way to purchase the set with blue trim.The only addition thing I have to say is that I wish these came in different colour schemes, but that is certainly not a fault in this product. I couldn't recommend these enough.
Had to buy several of these shoes as they are very inconsistent. Some are deformed (3 of the ones I ordered), and some just feel completely different. Very tight around the toes, yet others feel slightly better even though it's the same shoe. What you end up with is a lottery. Very disappointed as the shoes themselves look great but comfort is hit and miss.
They're pretty, and beautifully made but they just didn't fit. I do have feet on the wider side but they were so narrow, and small length wise too. I ordered 2 sizes. One from what was seemingly the mens version, and the other the women's to see if there was a difference width wise (there isn't). But I used the size suggestion for one of the pairs and it was WAY too small. In the other pair I ordered my usual size but it was also snug. Could have gone up a size easily. Just not comfortable unfortunately so I sent them back.
The shoes are exactly as in the picture. They are very good quality and the stitching is good. However I recommend that you size up a lot as I got 7.5 when Im usually a 7 and the toe area is very narrow. It squishes your big toe but yet theres still lots of space above the toes?? The toe area is just too narrow even though theyre not tight. So I would size up. Other than that theyre nice but slightly disappointing.
The shoes are really comfortable. However, I was surprised when I opened the box and found that the shoes had a velcro strap. I re-checked the images that ASOS were using to advertise the shoes and the velcro straps did not appear in any. Had I seen images with a velcro strap, it probably would have affected my initial decision to buy the shoes as, even though the strap is removable, the plastic strap holders are quite noticeable. Sure, I should have read the details section before making my purchase; but often appearance dictates most of our purchasing decisions. It does beg the question as to why ASOS had put this shoe in the sale and neglected to display an image of the default shoe (with velcro). Perhaps because they were struggling to sell the shoes when ... MoreThe shoes are really comfortable. However, I was surprised when I opened the box and found that the shoes had a velcro strap.

These were so flat and uncomfortable that after a few minutes of wearing I ended up with a pain in my ankles that lasted all day long. They are so so flat but worse, the inside of the shoe has no shape and almost spreads out so if you have flat feet like mine, your instep and ankles will drop to the sides. Really fat and ugly. Maybe good for wide feet? I’d pinned after these for ages. Gutted to return
The Adidas forums are really nice and my son was super excited when they were delivered. He’s 11 and wears an 8.5 in mens. The shoe was hard to get into and his face showed the discomfort of having the shoe on his foot. I wanted these to work so bad, because the other popular brand has narrow shoes as well. I would recommend to people with narrow feet. other than that it’s a gorgeous shoe.
