@Bubblegum Tate these forum lows new?? Didn’t realize they were coming with more after the hector pair
I think it was Watson? who said there were more colors after the Heitor color way coming out.
adidas is really pushing the forum in general. Bodega just had a F&F numbered pair, SNS colorway, Beyoncé ivy lark (?), giving it the full treatment
Are they actually retooled for skating like dunks vs sb dunks or is it just a regular forum remarketed to skating
First released in 1984, the Forum shoe was originally purposed as a basketball shoe, but this latest version includes plenty of performance upgrades designed specifically for skateboarding. The shoe features a premium leather upper with a double-layered toe cap for added durability while da Silva's name is featured on the mesh tongue. The upgrades from the OG continue to the sole with EVA foam on the midsole for impact protection and a grippy gum sole for foot stability on the board.
"I skated in the Adidas Originals Forum a few years ago and loved them. I love classic basketball shoes for the look, durability and comfort," da Silva says. "The design process was fun and surreal—so happy I got to be a part of bringing the Forum back, especially for skateboarding."
