One accent, applied twice. The upper of this women's Forum Low is Cloud White leather, the cupsole beneath it is the same tone, and Blue Dawn, a pale powder shade with more grey in it than a true pastel, is confined to the serrated Three Stripes and to the heel tab. Because the white runs uninterrupted from the toe to the sole edge, the blue lands as a graphic line across the quarter rather than a block of colour.
Priced at 100 dollars, it sits at the centre of adidas's women's Forum range, below the platform and oversized variants and level with the rest of the standard low-tops. The build follows the basketball original: an adjustable ankle strap, the X-shaped overlay that anchors it, a perforated toe box and a cupsole with a raised heel wedge. Smooth white leather is the material the model was designed in, and it creases along the flex point early, which on a light colourway becomes part of how the shoe looks rather than a flaw. Blue Dawn is the sort of accent adidas reaches for when it wants a white sneaker to have a season without having a statement.
