FAQs

How do I clean the white 3-Stripes?

The white 3-Stripes can typically be cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution. Gently wipe them down and then dry with a clean cloth.

Are these trainers suitable for playing sports like football or basketball?

While durable, these trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and everyday activities, not high-performance sports like football or basketball. For specific sports, dedicated athletic footwear is recommended.

What age group are these Handball Spezial trainers designed for?

These trainers are designed for kids, offering a comfortable and stylish option for younger wearers.

Can these trainers be worn in the rain?

Suede is not inherently waterproof. While they can withstand light dampness, it's not recommended to wear them in heavy rain or wet conditions without applying a protective suede spray first.

Are these trainers true to size?

adidas trainers generally run true to size. It's always best to consult the adidas size chart or try them on to ensure the perfect fit for your child.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper of these adidas Originals Handball Spezial trainers is made from premium black suede.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or matted.

Gently brush the suede with a suede brush in one direction to lift the nap and restore its texture.

Stains on suede are not coming off with a brush.

Use a specialized suede eraser for scuffs or a dedicated suede cleaning solution for deeper stains, following the product's instructions carefully.

Trainers feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.

This is normal for new footwear. Encourage your child to wear them for short periods over a few days to allow the material to soften and conform to their feet.

Trainers got wet and now feel stiff or look discolored.

Stuff the trainers with newspaper to absorb moisture, then allow them to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct heat. Once dry, gently brush the suede to restore its texture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Getting started with your Handball Spezial trainers is simple:

  1. Lacing: Ensure laces are tied securely but not too tightly to allow for comfortable movement.
  2. Initial Wear: Allow your child to wear the trainers for short periods initially to break them in and ensure a perfect fit.

  • Outfit Matching: The black suede with white 3-Stripes offers high compatibility with various casual attire, including jeans, shorts, leggings, and tracksuits.

Care Instructions (Suede)

Maintaining the suede upper is crucial for the longevity and appearance of your trainers:

  1. Brush Regularly: Use a soft-bristled suede brush (or a clean, dry toothbrush) to gently brush off dirt and dust. Always brush in the same direction to avoid damaging the nap.
  2. Spot Cleaning: For small marks or scuffs, use a suede eraser. Gently rub the eraser over the mark.
  3. Deeper Cleaning: For tougher stains, use a specialized suede cleaner. Apply sparingly with a clean cloth, following the product's instructions. Allow to air dry completely away from direct heat.
  4. Protection: Consider applying a suede protector spray before first wear and periodically thereafter. This helps repel water and stains.
  5. Avoid Water Saturation: Suede can be damaged by excessive moisture. If they get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally. Do not use direct heat.
  6. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading and material degradation.
