The original adidas Campus 00s sneakers are highly sought after, which unfortunately leads to many counterfeits appearing on the market. Here are the main features to recognize fake Adidas Campus sneakers from the original ones.

1. Size label check

One of the first ways to identify a counterfeit is the size label inside the shoe. On the original label, all details are sharply printed, including numbers and a QR code that is easily readable. In fake shoes, the numbers and QR code may be blurred or printed irregularly. For example, on the original label, you will clearly see the printed production date, whereas on fake ones, there is often a difference in alignment and print quality.
You may also notice that the ® trademark is usually missing from the Adidas logo


2. Color and design of stripes

On the original Adidas Campus 00s, the three stripes are quality stitched, and their material and color are durable and vibrant. With counterfeits, the quality of the material is often noticeably lower; the stripes may be less sharp, with irregular edges or poorly sewn. Also note the detail on the heel, where fake shoes may show differences in the shape and placement of the seams.

3. Text a logo Adidas

On the authentic Adidas Campus, the logo on the tongue is clearly defined, with sharp edges, without printing errors and most importantly, it is embedded. When you run your finger over the logo, you should feel that the logo is recessed and lower than the suede on the tongue. Fake shoes often have poorly printed logos that may be of an unclear shape. In addition, notice the text "CAMPUS" on the side of the shoe – in the originals, the text is in a regular font, whereas in the fakes, the text may be misaligned or incorrectly placed.

4. Seams and shape of the shoe

The original adidas Campus 00s sneakers feature precise stitching and a properly shaped upper. Counterfeits often have seams that are irregular or poorly stitched, which can lead to deformities on the shoe. The shape of the shoes in fake versions is often less accurate, which affects the overall appearance. The seam on the side of the sneaker should be slightly curved.

 

If you are still unsure about the authenticity of your sneakers, ask yourself these questions:

1. Did your sneakers seem suspiciously less expensive compared to other online stores?
2. Wasn't the seller's page slightly questionable? In terms of appearance, font style, and text?
3. Did I not buy sneakers at the bazaar or Facebook Marketplace?
4. Did I have a strange, unusually suspicious feeling about the purchase?

If you answered yes to several questions, you have reason to be concerned.

If you bought sneakers from verified e-shops or directly from the supplier, you don't have to worry.

Even in factories for original sneakers, mistakes can sometimes happen. Even if the sneaker shows one of the aforementioned signs, it does not necessarily mean it is a counterfeit. The quality control of renowned brands is increasingly declining, and more and more pairs of not entirely quality shoes are entering circulation. Meanwhile, people who make replicas of their sneakers are still improving them.

If you really want to be sure of the originality of your sneakers, you can use, for example, the check-check application, where you upload photos of your sneakers and for a small fee, the company will respond whether it is a counterfeit or an original.
