This sneaker is a must-have for any true sneakerhead. The classic adidas silhouette features a sleek black and gold colorway, with “I Am Detroit” emblazoned on the strap.

The premium leather upper provides durability and support, while the EVA midsole and rubber outsole offer superior cushioning and traction. Whether you’re hitting the streets or hitting the dance floor, the adidas Forum Low “Detroit” has got you covered.
To celebrate the release of this sneaker, SNIPES is hosting a full day dance competition, including a 2v2 Jit & Breakin’ Competition, with $2,000 in prize money on the line. This competition will feature some of the best dancers from across the Midwest, showcasing their incredible skills and pushing the boundaries of the Jit and Breakin’ styles.
