FAQs
What is the age group for these shoes?
These specific adidas Originals Campus 00s are designed for infants, indicated by the 'infant' age group attribute and 'Size: 5' (UK children's foot size).
Are these shoes suitable for everyday wear?
Yes, with their durable leather upper, comfortable lining, and secure fit, they are well-suited for everyday casual wear and infant activities.
Can these shoes be machine washed?
No, it is not recommended to machine wash these shoes. The leather material requires gentle spot cleaning and air drying to maintain its quality and shape.
How do I choose the correct size for my infant?
It's best to measure your infant's foot and compare it to adidas's official sizing chart. Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between their longest toe and the end of the shoe.
Is the leather upper durable for active infants?
The leather upper is designed to be durable and withstand the typical wear and tear of an active infant's daily play, offering good protection and support.
What is the best way to clean the green leather?
For routine cleaning, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe off dirt. For more stubborn marks, a mild leather cleaner designed for colored leather can be used, always testing on an inconspicuous area first. Allow them to air dry completely.
Do these shoes provide good grip for early walkers?
Yes, the rubber outsole is designed to provide good traction, offering stability and grip which is beneficial for infants who are learning to stand and take their first steps.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or too loose.
Adjust the lace closure. Ensure the laces are evenly tightened across the top of the foot. For tightness, loosen slightly; for looseness, tighten until snug but not uncomfortable. Re-check the fit by wiggling your infant's toes to ensure there's enough room.
Laces constantly come undone.
Always double knot the laces. If the laces are worn or slippery, consider replacing them with new, slightly textured laces.
Scuffs and marks on the leather upper.
For light scuffs, a soft, damp cloth can often remove them. For deeper scuffs, a specialized leather cleaner or a leather conditioner designed to restore color may be needed. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
Shoes develop an odor.
Remove the shoes at the end of the day to allow them to air out. You can sprinkle a small amount of baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors, then tap it out in the morning. Ensure socks are worn to absorb sweat.
Infant resists wearing the shoes.
Check the fit again; perhaps they are too tight or rubbing somewhere. Ensure socks are comfortable. Try introducing the shoes for short periods initially and make it a positive experience through play. If discomfort persists, consult a pediatrician.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting Started
- Open Laces: Fully loosen the laces to create a wide opening for your infant's foot.
- Insert Foot: Gently guide your infant's foot into the shoe, ensuring their heel is seated comfortably at the back.
- Adjust Fit: Tighten the laces progressively, ensuring a snug fit without being too restrictive. You should be able to slide one finger between the ankle collar and your infant's ankle.
- Tie Securely: Double knot the laces to prevent them from coming undone during play, which can be a tripping hazard.
Compatibility
These Campus 00s trainers are highly versatile, pairing well with a wide range of infant clothing, from casual jeans and shorts to more playful rompers and dresses. Their classic green and white design offers a pop of color that's easy to integrate into many outfits.
Care & Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your infant's leather Campus 00s:
- Daily Cleaning: After wear, gently wipe off any loose dirt or dust with a soft, dry cloth.
- Spot Cleaning: For minor marks, use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap (specifically for leather, if available) and gently rub the affected area. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Drying: Always air dry at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight, which can damage the leather.
- Deep Cleaning: For tougher stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner and conditioner, following the product's instructions.
- Avoid Washing Machine: Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can severely damage the leather and structural integrity of the shoe.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
