Jovani Hernandez Although the Three Stripes is heading into the new year with innovation top of mind as evidenced by the adidas UltraBOOST 21, the brand hasn’t lost focus on some of the most iconic silhouettes in its archive. Case in point: The adidas Forum Lo, which has recently emerged in a “Footwear White/Grey One/Orbit Grey” colorway to complement an upcoming high-top release.
Predominantly clad in shades of white, the pair nods to the model’s debut in 1984 with its handful of seemingly aged accents. Profile 3-Stripes and panels around the heel deliver suede construction, while tongues deviate from its surrounding’s leather build with a light tan nylon makeup. Trefoil logos on the tongue and lateral midfoot indulge in the titular “Orbit Grey,” but their counterparts on the tread opt into an off-white scheme reminiscent of vintage adidas sneakers.
Enjoy official images of the low-top Forum ahead, and expect pairs to arrive to adidas.com soon.
Elsewhere under the Three Stripes’ umbrella, the Yeezy 700 “Sun” launches on January 23rd with a lower price point than the original.
