FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The Handball Spezial has a regular fit. If your child has particularly wide feet, it's advisable to try them on or check sizing charts carefully.

How do I clean the blue suede material?

Use a suede brush to remove dirt. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner applied sparingly with a cloth is recommended. Always allow to air dry naturally.

What is the main benefit of the gum rubber outsole?

The gum rubber outsole provides excellent traction and grip, which is essential for active children playing on various surfaces.

Can these trainers be worn in the rain?

While the suede offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions to maintain the condition of the suede.

What age group are these trainers best for?

These trainers are listed as suitable for toddlers and children, with the specific size provided being UK 1.5, typically fitting younger children.

What does 'Spezial' refer to?

'Spezial' is a classic adidas series that originally debuted as a handball shoe and has since become a popular lifestyle sneaker, known for its retro appeal.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained

Gently brush off loose dirt. For tougher stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and a soft cloth, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid using water excessively.

Shoelaces are difficult to tie securely

Ensure the eyelets are clear and the laces are threaded correctly. If laces are worn, consider replacing them with new ones for better grip.

Poor traction on wet surfaces

The gum rubber outsole offers good grip, but performance may be reduced on very wet or slippery surfaces. Ensure the sole is clean for optimal traction.
