FAQs
Are these Adidas Handball Spezial trainers machine washable?
No, these trainers are made with a suede upper, which is not suitable for machine washing. Machine washing can damage the material and alter the shoe's shape. Please follow the care instructions provided in this guide for cleaning.
How do I choose the correct size for my infant?
It's best to measure your infant's foot length and refer to the official Adidas sizing chart. Infant feet grow quickly, so regular measurement is recommended. Always allow a little extra room for growth and natural foot movement.
Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?
Suede is not inherently waterproof. While they can withstand light dampness, it's best to avoid heavy rain, puddles, or very wet conditions to protect the material from damage and discoloration. Consider applying a suede protector spray for added resistance.
Are these suitable for infants who are just starting to walk?
Yes, absolutely. The 'super bendy' design and soft suede upper are specifically chosen to support natural foot movement, making them an excellent choice for crawlers and early walkers as they develop their balance and coordination.
Do these trainers come with standard laces?
No, these infant trainers feature an 'elastic lace closure' designed for ease of use. This allows for quick slip-on and slip-off without the need to tie or untie laces, which is perfect for infants.
What kind of socks should my infant wear with these trainers?
For optimal comfort, pair these trainers with soft, breathable socks that fit well without bunching up. This will help prevent friction and keep your infant's feet comfortable throughout the day.
Troubleshooting
Trainers are difficult to put on my infant's foot.
Ensure you are stretching the elastic laces fully to open the shoe collar as wide as possible. Also, ensure your infant's socks are smooth and not bunched up, as this can create resistance.
The suede material looks dirty or has scuffs.
For light dirt and scuffs, use a soft suede brush to gently brush in one direction. For more stubborn stains, apply a specialized suede cleaner according to its instructions. Avoid using water or harsh chemicals directly on the suede.
My infant seems uncomfortable or constantly tries to remove the trainers.
First, double-check the sizing. Ensure the trainers are not too tight or too loose, allowing for comfortable toe wiggling. Ensure socks are not causing discomfort or bunching. It may also take a short period for your infant to adjust to wearing shoes.
The trainers feel stiff, despite the 'super bendy' description.
While designed to be flexible, new suede can initially feel a bit firmer. With wear, the material and sole will soften further. Ensure the size is correct; an ill-fitting shoe can restrict natural flex. If stiffness persists, verify it's not a sizing issue.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Getting your infant's Adidas Handball Spezial Trainers ready is straightforward:
- Gently stretch the elastic laces to open the shoe collar wide.
- Carefully slide your infant's foot into the trainer, ensuring their toes are not curled.
- Ensure socks are smooth and not bunched up for maximum comfort.

Compatibility

Their classic design makes them a versatile choice for various occasions, from everyday outings to more dressed-up casual events. They are generally suitable for infants learning to crawl and beginning to walk, as their flexible sole supports natural foot movement.
Care
Proper care will help maintain the suede material and extend the life of the trainers:
- Cleaning: For loose dirt, use a soft suede brush to gently brush it off. For tougher stains, use a specialized suede cleaner following the product's instructions. Avoid harsh detergents or scrubbing.
- Drying: If the trainers get damp, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight. Never machine wash or put them in a dryer.
- Protection: Consider using a suede protector spray (designed for shoes) to help repel water and stains, especially before initial wear.
- Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to prevent fading or material degradation.
