These shoes are specifically designed and sized for juniors (kids).
The upper is primarily made from soft and durable suede, complemented by synthetic leather accents for the 3-Stripes.
While the Handball Spezial has roots as a handball shoe from the 1970s, this junior version is designed for everyday casual wear and comfort rather than high-performance sports activities.
For light dirt, use a soft suede brush. For tougher marks, a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner can be used. Always allow shoes to air dry and avoid direct heat.
They feature a durable gum rubber outsole, which provides reliable, multidirectional traction.
Info needed: [It is generally recommended to consult adidas's official size chart for junior footwear to ensure the best fit, as sizing can vary. Consider trying them on if possible.]
The suede upper is not inherently waterproof. It is best to avoid heavy rain or wet conditions, or apply a waterproof spray designed for suede to offer some protection.
Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove loose dirt. For scuffs or tougher marks, use a suede eraser. For deeper stains, apply a specialized suede cleaner according to its instructions. Always brush in one direction and avoid excessive rubbing.
Ensure you have the correct junior size. Adjust the laces: loosen them if too tight for more room, or tighten them for a more secure fit. Allow for a break-in period as the suede may soften slightly with wear.
Clean the sole regularly with warm water and mild soap to remove dirt and debris that can reduce traction. If the tread pattern is significantly worn down, it may be time to consider replacing the shoes as grip cannot be restored on a worn sole.
