Forget-me-nots takes the adidas Forum Low pretty far from its basketball roots with this women’s-exclusive Forum Square. The Japanese boutique keeps the low-cut Forum base in place, but the squared-off toe gives the shoe more of a western boot feel than a traditional adidas lifestyle release.

Tan brown suede covers most of the upper, paired with white leather Three Stripes and small hits of gold branding. The shape does most of the work here. Instead of the Forum’s usual rounded toe, this version comes to a point before flattening across the front, giving the model a sharper profile without completely losing the sneaker underneath it.

Even the sole has been swapped out, with a low kitten heel implemented on the heel side of the shoe. It gives a bit of lift and alters the angle of the shoe, but the rubber midsole is a reminder of the Forum’ s beginnings.

Square-toe sneakers are starting to look less like a one-off idea. Nike recently used a similar shape on the Air Force 1 and Air Max 90, and now adidas has its own take through Forget-me-nots. For a Forum Low, this is one of the more unexpected makeovers in recent memory.

The Forget-me-nots x adidas Forum Square “Tan Brown” releases July 18, 2026, through Forget-me-nots in-store and online. The women’s pair will be available for approximately $115 USD.
