Despite the decline in interest in ‘80s basketball sneakers, adidas continues offering new renditions of the Forum Low. While it has been some time since we’ve seen a collaboration on the sneaker—most recently in July when Deadpool & Wolverine teamed up on multiple adidas sneakers—the women’s-focused basketball community Hoop York City is launching its version of the iconic on-court model.
Following up on their adidas Rivalry Low and Crazy 8 Low collabs from the end of 2024, this new Hoop York City adidas Forum Low sticks to a neutral color palette featuring off-white and silver-green hues throughout the upper. Premium leather in an off-white shade covers most of the paneling, while silver-green hues are found on the sockliner and leather underlay on the back half of the sneaker. For the Three Stripes, Hoop York City applies a silver-blue and burgundy finish to the logo, contrasting the golden HYC logo nearby.
