Leather/Suede quality To see whether or not the Adidas Campus 00S is indeed made of real leather, we subjected various parts of the upper to our fire test.

Adidas finally connected with Korn for a proper collaboration in 2023, dropping a range of co-branded sneakers and apparel last October. The project, a moment that the brand and its fans waited decades for, was highly anticipated and quickly sold out.
