FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

No, machine washing will damage the suede material. Spot cleaning is recommended.

Do these trainers provide good arch support?

The OrthoLite sock liner provides decent cushioned support for developing feet, though they are primarily designed for casual wear.

What is the sizing fit like?

The Handball Spezial generally follows standard UK infant sizing; however, since they feature a lace-up design, you can adjust the volume for a better fit.

Are the gold accents reflective?

The gold accents are decorative metallic elements and do not possess reflective safety properties.

Can I use a water-repellent spray?

Yes, using a high-quality, non-silicone suede protector spray can help guard against light water contact and dirt.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or dusty

Use a suede brush or a clean, soft-bristled toothbrush to gently agitate the surface fibers back to their original texture.

Laces constantly coming untied

Double-knot the laces or consider using elastic replacement laces if the standard ones do not provide enough security.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Adidas Handball Spezial trainers, follow these guidelines:

  1. Fitting: Ensure the lace fastening is snug but not tight enough to restrict circulation; infants should have a thumb-width of space at the toe.
  2. Cleaning: Do not machine wash. Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt from the suede. For tougher stains, use a suede-specific cleaner.
  3. Moisture Prevention: Avoid wearing these shoes in wet or muddy conditions to prevent permanent staining of the suede fibers.
  4. Storage: Keep away from direct heat sources to prevent the glue bonds from weakening or the suede from becoming brittle.
