Product Information

Full details

The adidas Handball Spezial Trainers are designed for active kids who need a reliable, stylish shoe for everyday wear. These trainers blend a heritage 1970s indoor sports aesthetic with modern convenience, featuring easy-to-use elastic laces and a secure hook-and-loop closure that makes dressing simple for children and parents alike. While they offer excellent durability and a soft leather feel, users should note that the specialized indoor-origin design is best suited for casual daily use rather than high-intensity outdoor terrain.

FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

No, leather trainers should not be machine washed. Spot clean them with a damp cloth and leather-appropriate cleaning products.

Do these trainers fit true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard UK children's sizing for adidas footwear.

Can the elastic laces be replaced?

The elastic laces are integrated into the shoe design. If they lose elasticity, contact a cobbler or an authorized retailer for repair options.

Are these suitable for wide feet?

The leather upper provides some flexibility, but the silhouette is traditionally slim; it is recommended to ensure the hook-and-loop strap is adjusted properly for comfort.

What is the primary material?

These trainers are primarily constructed with a supple leather upper and a durable rubber outsole.

Can these be worn for gym class?

Yes, their indoor-sport heritage makes them suitable for most standard indoor gym activities.

Troubleshooting

Hook-and-loop strap losing adhesion

Check for lint or debris caught in the hooks; use a pair of tweezers or a comb to clear the fabric.

Scuffs on the leather upper

Use a leather-matching shoe cream or a specialized leather cleaner to buff out minor surface scuffs.

Slippery sole grip

Wipe the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove accumulated floor wax or dust that can impede traction.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Quick and easy closure system for kids
  • Soft, high-quality leather upper
  • Durable rubber outsole provides excellent traction
  • Classic, timeless style
  • Easy for children to put on independently

Cons

  • Leather requires regular maintenance to stay looking new

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Getting started with the adidas Handball Spezial is straightforward. Simply ensure the elastic laces are pulled taut to the preferred fit for your child, then secure the hook-and-loop strap firmly.

To keep the leather upper in optimal condition:

  1. Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt or dust.
  2. Apply a leather-safe cleaner or conditioner periodically to prevent the material from drying out.
  3. Avoid submerging the shoes in water; if they get wet, air dry them at room temperature away from direct heat sources to maintain the shape of the leather.
  4. Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
