What inspired the design of the Campus 00s?

The design is inspired by the chunky skate shoes from the early 2000s.

How should I clean the suede material?

Use a suede brush for dry dirt and specialized suede cleaners for stains. Avoid oversaturating and allow to air dry.

Is the fit true to size?

The fit is generally considered true to size for most wearers, but consulting a size chart and trying them on if possible is recommended.

What is the main difference in the sole unit compared to other models?

The Campus 00s features a slightly thicker foam sole unit with a distinct curve at the toe.

Are these suitable for sports or athletic performance?

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or matted

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, consider a suede eraser or cleaner, following product instructions carefully.

Laces are frayed or worn

Replace laces with a similar style or color. New laces can refresh the look of the trainers.

Sole feels stiff initially

This is normal for new shoes. Wear them for short periods initially to break them in. The foam sole will soften with use.

Color transfer from black accents

This is more likely with new items. Avoid prolonged contact with light-colored socks or materials, especially when damp. Allow the shoes to air out.
