Forum 84 Low ADV

Unisex Forum 84 Low ADV reimagines the classic 1984 basketball sneaker for modern skateboarding, blending heritage style with practical updates for street performance. This low-top silhouette uses blended uppers of soft suede and smooth leather, finished with gum trim for a classic look[6]. The shoe features an abrasion-resistant, double-layered Adituff toe cap for added durability during skate sessions, along with a perforated toe panel to keep feet cool and comfortable[2][4].

Underfoot, the Forum 84 Low ADV includes a stitched cupsole for superior board feel, high-grade EVA midsole for impact absorption, and cushioned heel and forefoot for stability[2][3]. The removable Adiprene footbed offers continuous support and can be swapped between shoes, while the padded tongue and collar provide extra comfort and ankle care[2][4]. The outsole features gum rubber construction for reliable grip, with a circular traction pattern and a red pivot point for better maneuverability[1].

Key features also include a lace closure, 3-stripe branding, external heel stabilizer, and a retro-inspired bulky yet controlled fit[3]. The shoe is designed for unisex wear, available in versatile colorways like black/white and chalk white, and incorporates recycled materials—25% of the upper uses at least 50% recycled content[4][7]. With its blend of cushioning, protection, and board feel, the Adidas Forum 84 Low ADV is most suited for skateboarding but also works well as a fashionable, durable everyday sneaker[2][8].
