Product Information

Full details

The adidas Handball Spezial Kids Trainers are designed for active children who need a blend of heritage style and everyday functionality. Featuring a classic 1970s indoor athletic aesthetic updated with modern convenience, these shoes offer a soft, comfortable fit thanks to their premium suede upper. While they provide excellent grip and easy-on access, the suede material requires careful maintenance to keep them looking pristine during outdoor play.

FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

No, machine washing is not recommended for suede footwear as it can warp the shape and degrade the material.

How do I determine the right size for my child?

These trainers are sized in UK children's sizing. We recommend measuring the foot length and checking the official adidas size chart for the most accurate fit.

Can these be used for sports?

While they were originally designed for indoor handball, they are primarily marketed as lifestyle trainers today. They are great for gym class, but may not offer the advanced support of modern specialized performance athletic shoes.

What is the best way to protect the suede from stains?

Applying a water-repellent spray specifically designed for suede before the first wear can help protect against dirt and light moisture.

Are the elastic laces adjustable?

The laces come pre-set for convenience. They are designed to provide a secure, comfortable fit without needing manual adjustment.

Troubleshooting

Hook-and-loop closure not sticking

Remove lint or debris caught in the hook-and-loop fabric using tweezers or a stiff brush to restore the grip.

Suede looks dull or matted

Use a specialized suede brush to lift the nap of the material in a circular motion to restore its natural texture.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Quick and easy closure system perfect for younger children
  • High-quality suede material provides comfort and durability
  • Classic design that pairs well with most casual outfits
  • Reliable rubber grip prevents slipping during active play

Cons

  • Suede material is prone to staining and water damage
  • Requires more frequent cleaning than synthetic trainers
  • Lighter colors may show dirt more easily

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Getting started with the adidas Handball Spezial is simple; the pre-set elastic laces mean there is no complex setup required out of the box. To ensure longevity, keep the shoes away from heavy mud or water, as the suede upper is sensitive to moisture. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush specifically designed for suede to gently remove surface dust. For tougher marks, use a dedicated suede eraser. Avoid machine washing or using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can permanently damage the texture and color of the material.
