FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for playing sports?

The Handball Spezial Junior trainers are designed for casual wear and light activities. They are not intended for high-impact sports or specific athletic training.

What is the best way to clean the suede material?

Use a dedicated suede brush for dry dirt. For stains, a slightly damp cloth can be used with caution, followed by air drying. Avoid harsh chemicals or soaking.

What does the 'Spezial' wordmark signify?

The gold foil Spezial wordmark is a signature detail on this particular line of Adidas Originals shoes, highlighting its heritage and design.

How do I know if I've chosen the correct size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by Adidas or the retailer. Ensure there is a little room for growth, but not so much that the shoe is loose.

Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?

While the gum sole offers some grip, the suede upper is not waterproof and can be damaged by excessive moisture. It's best to wear these in dry conditions.

What is the difference between this junior model and adult versions?

The junior model is specifically sized for children and may have slight variations in materials or construction to suit younger users, while maintaining the core design.

Troubleshooting

Suede becoming stiff after cleaning

Gently brush the suede with a suede brush once completely dry to restore its texture.

Gum sole marks on light-colored floors

This is a common characteristic of gum rubber soles. For indoor use on sensitive surfaces, consider cleaning the soles regularly or using a different pair of shoes.

Discoloration of pink accents

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading. Clean gently with a damp cloth if needed.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the Suede: For light dirt, use a soft brush specifically designed for suede to gently remove debris. For stains, a damp cloth can be used sparingly, followed by air drying. Avoid soaking the suede.
  • Cleaning the Rubber Sole: Use a damp cloth or a mild soap solution to wipe down the gum rubber outsole. Ensure it is dried thoroughly.
  • Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe box or dust bag to protect from dust and potential damage.
