FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The adidas Campus 00s generally offers a regular fit. While suede may stretch slightly over time, individuals with particularly wide feet might find them snug. We recommend trying them on or consulting the adidas size guide for specific measurements.
Can I put these shoes in a washing machine?
No, it is strongly advised not to put suede shoes in a washing machine. This can damage the suede, cause color fading, and ruin the shoe's structure. Follow the specific suede cleaning instructions provided in the care section.
What is the material of the adidas 3-stripes?
The signature adidas 3-stripes on this model are made from serrated matte black leather, providing a subtle textural contrast against the suede upper and highlighted with white stitching.
Do I need to waterproof these shoes?
Yes, it is highly recommended to apply a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede before your first wear. Suede is very sensitive to moisture and can easily get stained or damaged by water.
What's the best way to store these shoes?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading and material damage. Using shoe trees can help maintain their original shape and prevent creasing.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or matted.
Use a specialized suede brush to gently brush the entire surface in one direction. This helps lift the nap and restore its original texture and vibrancy.
Light stains or dirt spots on the suede.
For dry dirt, use a suede eraser to gently rub the stain away. For liquid stains, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. If the stain persists, apply a small amount of suede cleaner according to its instructions, then brush.
Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.
The Campus 00s may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations around the house initially. The materials will soften and conform to your foot over time.

Product Care & Maintenance
Suede is a delicate material that requires specific care to maintain its appearance.
- Water Protection: Suede is highly susceptible to water damage. Apply a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede before the first wear and reapply periodically. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions.
- Regular Cleaning: For general dirt and dust, use a suede brush with brass bristles to gently brush the nap in one direction. This helps remove surface dirt and restore the texture.
- Spot Cleaning Stains: For stubborn stains, use a specialized suede cleaner or eraser. Apply sparingly, following the product instructions, and then brush the area with a suede brush once dry.
- Deep Cleaning (Rarely): If significant cleaning is needed, consider professional suede cleaning services. Avoid conventional washing machines or harsh chemical cleaners.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading and material degradation. Use shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
- Avoid Scratches: Be mindful of rough surfaces that can scuff or scratch the suede.
