Adidas Campus is an athletic shoe created by Adidas that was released in the 1970s. The shoes were first released as basketball shoes before switching to lifestyle shoes. The unique design of the shoe helped make it popular as a chunkier alternative to Adidas' other sneakers.[1]
Overview
The original name of the shoes were Tournament later being renamed to Campus in the 1980s. Part of what made the shoes a success is the thicker overall design of the shoe when compared to other shoes from Adidas like the Samba or Gazelle.[2] This can be seen from the bigger sole, the bigger upper of the shoe, and even the wider stripes on the sides. This made the shoe a better option for people who prefer comfortability or even a wider shoe for their feet. The shoe also has a more simpler design with the toe box with a plain look rather than a unique design like similar Adidas shoes.
