Dark Blue is the first of RECOUTURE's three Campus 80s makeups from 2020, releasing weeks ahead of the Black and Chalk White pairs that followed later that year. Where those two colorways split their reconstruction mostly between black, white and grey, this one leans on color blocking: blue suede covers the lateral upper and stretches down into the midsole, while the medial side switches to crimson suede for a sharper contrast.
A blue suede eyestay sits slightly out of line, stitched onto a black tongue rather than centered the way a standard Campus would build it, and a grey suede panel covers the toe before the color story reaches the front of the shoe. A pale leather tab finishes the heel, with the usual Three-Stripes returning in white to tie this reconstruction back to the model's familiar look. It released September 12, 2020 at $120, the same price as the two RECOUTURE colorways that came after it.
