Adidas Forum 84?
I am back, once again asking about sneakers. What do you think about their comfort, sizing, etc..
I have issues with comfort of my Air Max 90's so I need something a bit better than that.
As far as colorways go these are my options (I need something versatile since I don't have white sneakers yet):

Maybe also white ultraboosts (of all generations)? I know they would be harder to clean but they are certainly more comfortable and breathable
Also give me other recommendations if you have them

Forum 84's aren't leaps and bounds better than AM 90s, what about the am 90s are uncomfortable? imo their midsole/insoles are pretty usable for all day, but their fit (narrow af) really made them unbearable for me. Do you have a similar experience?
Also, what kind of style are you interested for sneakers? forums and ultraboosts are not the same style imo, so it would be good to see what you're leaning towards.
Also, if you're based on the EU you can check out stores like slamjam and sneakersnstuff for more options and good sales occasionally
I don't know what's specifically uncomfortable about them, I just know that i have muscle cramps and knee pain after wearing them (and yes they are quite narrow for me as well)
All triple white sneakers look practically identical to me, but I already have 4 pairs of blue running shoes that I use for track and everyday wear but blue doesn't really go with everything so that's why I'm searching for some white ones.
I'm in Europe but not in the EU so most stores that I looked at don't ship to me (in contrast to sports stores most of which ship to me. Go figure).
Ah, good to know about the store thing. Do you know if size? ships to you? Trying to think of other sneaker boutiques that may ship more broadly
The reason I ask about style is that it's more than just the color, but also the sillhoutte of the shoe (chunky, slim, various other design features) that can change how they feel and your interest in wearing them. Knowing your preference can help determine what you would enjoy wearing the most
they used to but i checked a month ago and now they dont afaik
yeah i realise about the style question, i guess old runners and basketball sneakers would be the easiest to style right?
i guess i would prefer retro runners since i have running shoes on my feet most of the time (if i wouldnt have any problems styling them that is)
ok i was wrong, i tried to check out some adidas' and it gave me shipping options so i guess it works on the uk site
If you have some images that reference your style preferences that would be the easiest to compare what may "work", but that is also kind of an arbitrary thing. You should really wear what you gravitate towards and enjoy
I think retro style sneakers can work into lots of outfits, and are usually pretty comfortable
i mean I'd rather buy ultraboosts but idk will i be able to pair it with outfits since i see people mostly wearing retros
Is your style similar to people you see wearing retros?
Yeah, most of my friends are built like me and they wear retro runners like am90 and various nb models or something like af1's and stan smiths
(unrelated to your question) What do you think about these?
I like the 2002Rs a lot, super super comfortable
Haven't tried out those Nikes, but I think they're cool in isolation
