The adidas Forum is an '80s B-ball icon, and this pair brings on the retro vibes. See the muted colours and famous X design? Yep, we're talking hardwood style at its finest. But it's not all about the past here. We teamed up with Parley for the Oceans to reimagine the design with the future in mind. The tongue webbing and heel strap are constructed using upcycled plastic waste, plus there's a partially recycled BOOST midsole for endless energy.
People pour plastics into oceans like there's no tomorrow. It comes up to more than eight million tons in a year. There's probably no trick or a single solution that could resolve the situation, which we as humans got into, with a snap of a finger. We can fight the big battle with smaller steps though. Such example is the result of the collaboration between adidas and Parley For The Oceans - sneakers that are made from plastic bottles pulled out from the sea. Each pair of adidas x Parley is made of more than ten plastic bottles, which is definitely better than leaving the bottles to decompose at the bottom of the ocean for centuries ...
Jump the highest in the high ones. Introducing the adidas Forum HI silhouette, the tallest of three possible versions of the iconic adidas Forum silhouette, one of the three stripes' biggest success stories in years. A retro symbolizing the future. Because this is where you'll find models most faithful to the original 1984 version of the sneaker. That's also why this numeral is written right into the name of many pairs. Get the most OG sneaker in your shoe closet, get the adidas Forum Hi 84.
