FAQs
What age group are these trainers designed for?
These adidas Originals Handball Spezial trainers are specifically designed for junior sizes, catering to active children.
Can these trainers be worn in the rain?
While the trainers are durable, the suede material is not waterproof. We recommend treating them with a suede protector spray and avoiding heavy rain to preserve their condition.
How do I clean the suede material?
Use a soft suede brush to remove dirt. For tougher marks, a specialized suede cleaner can be used, applied gently with a clean cloth. Always follow the cleaner's instructions.
Are these suitable for sports or athletic activities?
These trainers are designed for casual wear and light to moderate active play. While durable, they are not specialized sports shoes and may not offer the same level of support or performance as dedicated athletic footwear.
What kind of sole do these trainers have?
They feature a sturdy gum rubber sole, known for its durability and classic appearance, providing good traction on most dry surfaces.
Are the sizes true to fit?
Generally, adidas junior sizes tend to run true to size. However, foot shapes vary, so it's always best to refer to a size guide or try them on to ensure the best fit.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or stained
Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt. For deeper stains, apply a suede cleaner according to its instructions. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water.
Trainers feel stiff or uncomfortable initially
Like many shoes, these trainers may require a brief 'break-in' period. Encourage light wear for short durations to allow the material to soften and conform to the foot. Ensure the correct size is being worn.
Reduced grip on wet surfaces
The gum rubber sole performs best on dry surfaces. Exercise caution on wet or extremely smooth surfaces, as traction may be reduced. Consider applying a sole conditioner if grip becomes consistently problematic.
Fading of the brown color
Exposure to direct sunlight over extended periods can cause suede to fade. Store trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Suede protector sprays can also help preserve color.

Care Instructions
- Cleaning Suede: Use a soft suede brush to gently remove dirt and dust. For deeper cleaning, apply a specialized suede cleaner (following product instructions) to a clean cloth and blot the stained area. Do not rub vigorously, as this can damage the suede fibers.
- Water Protection: Suede is not waterproof. It is highly recommended to treat the trainers with a suede protective spray before their first wear and regularly thereafter, especially if they will be worn in damp conditions. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or puddles.
- Drying: If the trainers get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Let them air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can cause the suede to crack or stiffen.
- Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading and material degradation.
