FAQs

What age range are these trainers suitable for?

These Adidas Originals Handball Spezial Trainers are specifically designed for infants and toddlers. Please refer to the size chart to find the best fit for your child's foot length.

Are these trainers easy to put on a wriggly child?

Yes, a key feature is the combination of elastic laces and a hook-and-loop fastening. This design allows for a wide opening and quick, secure fastening, making them very easy to get on and off even the most active toddlers.

How do I clean the suede material?

For best results, use a soft suede brush for dry dirt and a suede eraser for scuffs. For more stubborn stains, a specialized suede cleaning product and a damp cloth should be used. Always allow them to air dry naturally and avoid machine washing.

Are these trainers suitable for all-weather wear?

While durable, the suede material is best suited for dry conditions. Exposure to heavy rain or mud can stain or damage the suede. Consider a waterproof spray for added protection if light moisture is anticipated.

Do these trainers provide good support for new walkers?

Yes, these trainers offer a comfortable and reliable fit with a flexible suede upper and a stable gum rubber outsole, providing adequate support for developing feet and new walkers.

Are the laces adjustable?

The laces are elastic, meaning they stretch to allow for easy entry and a snug fit. While not adjustable in the traditional sense like tie laces, the hook-and-loop strap provides some adjustability for the instep.

Are these trainers true to size?

Adidas Originals footwear generally runs true to size. However, for infant and toddler shoes, it's always recommended to measure your child's foot and compare it to the brand's specific size chart to ensure the best fit.

Troubleshooting

Trainers feel too tight or loose on my child's foot.

Ensure the hook-and-loop strap is adjusted correctly. It should be snug but not restrictive. The elastic laces are designed for flexibility, but always double-check the size against your child's current foot measurements. Children's feet grow quickly!

The suede upper is getting dirty or stained easily.

Suede requires specific care. Use a soft suede brush to gently remove dirt. For stains, a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaning solution applied with a damp cloth (dab, don't rub) can help. Consider applying a suede protector spray for future prevention.

My child finds it difficult to walk or trips in the trainers.

Ensure the trainers are the correct size and not too big, which can cause tripping. Check that the hook-and-loop strap is securely fastened. For new walkers, it might take a short time to adjust to any new footwear. If the problem persists, consult a pediatrician.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Setting up your child's Adidas Originals Handball Spezial Trainers is straightforward:

  1. Open the Fastening: Loosen the hook-and-loop strap and elastic laces fully.
  2. Insert Foot: Gently guide your child's foot into the trainer. The wide opening provided by the elastic laces makes this easy.
  3. Secure Fit: Fasten the hook-and-loop strap across the instep. The elastic laces will naturally conform to your child's foot for a snug, yet comfortable, fit. Ensure there's enough room for wiggling toes and that the shoe isn't too tight or too loose.

Compatibility

These trainers are designed for infants and toddlers (age group specified as "infant" and "toddler" in variants). They feature a unisex design, making them suitable for all children. They are ideal for everyday wear and light activity.

Care

Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of the suede trainers:

  • Initial Protection: Consider applying a suede protector spray before first wear to guard against water and stains. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
  • Spot Cleaning: For small dirt marks, use a soft suede brush or a specialized suede eraser. Gently rub the affected area.
  • Deeper Cleaning: For more stubborn stains, dampen a clean cloth with a small amount of water mixed with mild suede cleaner. Dab, do not rub, the stain.
  • Drying: Always allow suede to air dry naturally, away from direct heat or sunlight, which can cause damage or discoloration.
  • Avoid: Do not machine wash or tumble dry. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or stiff brushes, which can damage the suede's texture.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
