FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

No, it is recommended to clean them by hand using a damp cloth to preserve the metallic leather finish and suede details.

Do these shoes run true to size?

Yes, they feature a regular fit consistent with standard Adidas sizing for children.

Can these be used for indoor sports?

While based on indoor sports designs, they are intended for casual, everyday lifestyle wear rather than competitive athletic performance.

Is the T-toe made of real suede?

Yes, the classic T-toe overlay is constructed from durable suede material.

How do I keep the soles clean?

Use a mixture of mild soap and water with a soft brush to scrub the gum rubber soles, then wipe dry.

Troubleshooting

Hook-and-loop strap is losing grip

Check for lint or debris caught in the hook-and-loop fabric and remove it using a small brush or tweezers.

Scuffs on the metallic leather

Use a damp, soft cloth to gently buff the area. Avoid harsh chemicals or stiff brushes that could strip the metallic coating.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Getting the most out of your Adidas Handball Spezial trainers requires minimal setup but consistent maintenance. Because these shoes feature a metallic leather upper, it is important to avoid abrasive cleaners.

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the leather surface with a soft, damp cloth. Use a specialized suede brush to gently clean the T-toe area to keep the fibers looking fresh.
  2. Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the metallic finish over time.
  3. Compatibility: These are designed for standard sizing; if your child is between sizes, consider the roomier end of the fit for growing feet.
