FAQs
What makes these shoes 'super bendy'?
The shoes are designed with a flexible sole and upper material, allowing for natural movement of the baby's foot as they grow and explore.
How do the elastic laces work?
The elastic laces allow the shoe's collar to stretch open wider, making it easier for parents to slide the shoe onto a wiggly baby's foot and then securing it comfortably.
Are these shoes suitable for walking practice?
Yes, the rubber outsole provides good traction, which is beneficial for infants learning to walk and providing stability.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is made of soft, supple suede.
How should I clean the suede material?
Gently spot clean with a slightly damp cloth and allow to air dry. For deeper cleaning, use a dedicated suede brush or cleaner, following product instructions.
Can these shoes be worn in wet conditions?
While the rubber outsole offers some grip, suede is not ideal for very wet conditions and can be damaged by prolonged exposure to moisture.
What other colors or sizes are available in the Handball Spezial infant range?
The Handball Spezial line for infants and toddlers includes other colors such as blue and black, and various sizes within the infant and toddler ranges.
Troubleshooting
Shoes appear tight on the baby's foot.
Ensure the elastic laces are fully stretched to allow maximum opening of the collar before slipping the foot in. Check the size guide to confirm the correct fit.
Suede material looks dull or marked.
Use a soft suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove superficial marks. For tougher stains, consult a suede cleaning guide for appropriate methods.
Baby seems uncomfortable or resists wearing the shoes.
Verify the size is correct and not too small. Ensure no internal seams are causing irritation. Allow the baby to get accustomed to wearing them for short periods initially.
