What materials are used in the adidas Campus 2 KoRn?
The sneaker features a shaggy suede upper, with accents of leather and rubber for the sole and detailing.
How do I clean the shaggy suede?
Use a suede brush for regular maintenance and a specialized suede cleaner for stains. Avoid getting the suede excessively wet.
Are these shoes suitable for sports?
No, the adidas Campus 2 KoRn 'Follow The Leader' is designed as a lifestyle sneaker for casual wear and not for athletic performance.
What do the different color accents represent?
The Footwear White and Off-White accents provide visual contrast and contribute to a vintage, worn-in feel, complementing the Carbon base.

Troubleshooting
Suede losing its texture or appearing matted.
Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap of the suede. For persistent matting, consider a suede-specific cleaning product.
Scuff marks on the midsole.
Gently clean the Off-White midsole with a damp cloth or a non-abrasive eraser designed for shoe soles. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
Laces becoming dirty.
Remove laces and wash them by hand with mild soap and water, or place them in a mesh laundry bag and machine wash on a delicate cycle. Ensure they are fully dry before re-lacing.
