FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for sports?

While durable, these Handball Spezial Trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and light recreational activities, not for specialized sports performance. They are perfect for everyday play and stylish outfits.

How do I choose the correct size for my child?

Measure your child's foot length from heel to toe and compare it to adidas's official size chart for kids' footwear. Always leave a small amount of room for growth, but ensure they are not too loose to prevent tripping.

Can these shoes be machine washed?

No, due to the suede material and construction, these trainers should not be machine washed. Machine washing can damage the suede and alter the shoe's structure. Refer to the care instructions on the product label for proper cleaning methods.

What if the gold branding starts to fade?

The gold-toned foil branding is designed to be durable under normal wear. To prolong its life, avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning on this area. If fading occurs over time, it is typically part of natural wear and tear.

Are these trainers true to size?

ADIDAS Originals generally runs true to size. However, for growing children, it's always recommended to measure their feet and consult the brand's specific size guide to ensure the best fit.

What is the sole made of?

The sole is made of durable rubber, providing good grip and flexibility for everyday activities and play.

Is the lining comfortable for long wear?

Yes, the synthetic lining is designed to provide a soft and comfortable interior, making these trainers suitable for all-day wear during playdates and other activities.

Troubleshooting

Shoes look dirty or stained.

Gently brush off any dry dirt or dust with a specialized suede brush. For tougher stains, use a suede eraser or a recommended suede cleaner, following the product instructions carefully.

Suede appears matted or dull.

Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap and lift the fibers, which will help bring back the material's original texture and vibrancy.

Shoes feel too tight or loose.

Verify the shoe size against your child's current foot measurement. Ensure laces are tied correctly: not too tight to restrict circulation, and not too loose to cause slipping. Kids' feet grow quickly, so regular measurement is recommended.

Unpleasant odor from shoes.

Ensure shoes are aired out after wear. Remove insoles if possible and sprinkle with baking soda overnight to absorb odors. Replace insoles with fresh ones if necessary.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Stylish, iconic design scaled for kids.
  • Durable rubber sole suitable for active play.
  • Comfortable for everyday wear.
  • Versatile for various casual occasions.
  • High-quality materials like suede for a premium feel.

Cons

  • Suede material requires specific care and can be prone to dirt and stains.
  • May not be suitable for very wet or muddy conditions due to suede upper.
  • Potential for suede to wear down over time with intense play.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

To get started, simply slide your child's feet into the trainers. If they are lace-up, ensure the laces are tied securely but not too tightly, allowing for comfortable movement. Always check that there is enough room for toes to wiggle comfortably, indicating a proper fit for growing feet.

Compatibility

These trainers are designed specifically for children's feet (e.g., UK 12.5 for this variant) and are compatible with standard socks. They are suitable for general casual wear and light recreational activities. For optimal comfort and foot health, always select the correct size.

Care

Due to the suede material, these trainers require specific care to maintain their appearance. Always refer to the product label inside the shoe for precise instructions. General care guidelines for suede include:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft brush specifically designed for suede to gently remove loose dirt and dust. For tougher spots, a suede eraser can be used to lift marks.
  2. Stain Removal: Address stains immediately. Avoid using water directly on suede as it can leave marks. Use specialized suede cleaning products according to their instructions.
  3. Protection: Consider applying a suede protector spray before first wear and periodically thereafter. This helps to repel water and stains, extending the life of the material.
  4. Drying: If the trainers get wet, stuff them with plain paper towels or newspaper to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight.
  5. Brushing: Regularly brush the suede in one direction to restore the nap and keep the material looking fresh.
