Full details

The adidas Handball Spezial in Light Blue and Cloud White is designed for kids who need versatile trainers that blend a classic sporting heritage with modern streetwear style. Its key benefit is offering a durable, comfortable, and grippy shoe suitable for both light athletic activities and everyday wear.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for actual handball games?

While inspired by handball, these trainers are best suited for casual wear and light activities. For competitive handball, specialized performance shoes are recommended.

How do I clean the suede material?

Use a suede brush for daily cleaning. For stains, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner. Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first and allow shoes to air dry.

What is the best way to ensure a good fit for my child?

Measure your child's foot length accurately and compare it with the adidas sizing chart. 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?

Suede is not ideal for wet conditions. While the rubber sole offers grip, the suede upper can be damaged by excessive moisture. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain.

What does 'Handball Spezial' mean?

'Handball Spezial' translates to 'Handball Special' in German, indicating its original design purpose for the sport of handball.

Are there other colour options available in this model for kids?

The Handball Spezial line often comes in various colourways. Please check other listings for different colour options that may be available for kids' sizing.

Troubleshooting

Suede material looks dirty or scuffed

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner, following the product instructions carefully.

Shoes feel a bit stiff initially

Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Gentle flexing of the shoe can also help. Ensure the laces are not tied too tightly.

Laces are difficult to keep tied

Ensure laces are of good quality and not worn out. Try a double knot or a different lacing technique for a more secure tie.
