FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for all weather conditions?

The suede upper is not waterproof and is best suited for dry conditions. Avoid heavy rain or muddy environments to protect the material.

How often should I clean the shoes?

It depends on usage. For active kids, a quick brush after each wear is recommended to prevent dirt buildup. Deep cleaning with a suede cleaner can be done as needed, typically every few weeks or months.

Can my child wear these for competitive sports?

While durable and offering good traction, these shoes are designed for everyday wear and general active play. For specialized competitive sports, purpose-built athletic footwear is usually recommended.

Do these shoes offer good arch support for kids?

The shoes feature a Torsion System for midfoot stability and ADIPRENE+ cushioning, which contributes to overall foot comfort and support during active movement.

What is the primary material of the shoe?

The main upper material is genuine suede, known for its soft texture and durability. The sole is made of grippy gum rubber.

Is there a size guide available?

Always refer to the official adidas size chart for children's footwear to ensure the best fit, as sizes can vary. These are a UK children's size 1.

Troubleshooting

Shoes appear dirty or scuffed quickly.

Regularly use a suede brush to remove surface dirt. For deeper marks, a suede eraser or specialized suede cleaner can help restore the material's appearance.

Lack of grip during active play.

Check the gum rubber sole for any embedded debris or excessive wear. Clean the tread thoroughly with a brush and water (avoiding the suede) to restore optimal traction. If the tread is significantly worn, replacement might be necessary.

Uncomfortable fit or rubbing.

Ensure the shoes are properly laced, providing a snug but not overly tight fit. Check that the size is correct for your child's foot. Wearing appropriate socks can also help prevent rubbing and improve comfort.

Suede texture feels stiff or looks matted after getting wet.

If the suede gets wet, allow it to air dry naturally, away from direct heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to gently restore the nap and softness of the material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Using your adidas Originals Handball Spezial shoes is straightforward.

  1. Sizing: Ensure you have selected the correct size for your child's foot. The UK Size 1 is designed for young children. If unsure, measure their foot or consult an adidas size guide.
  2. Lacing: Lace them up securely, but not too tightly, to provide proper support and comfort. A double knot can prevent laces from coming undone during play.

Compatibility

These shoes are designed for unisex wear, suitable for both boys and girls. Their classic black color and retro aesthetic make them highly versatile, easily pairing with jeans, shorts, tracksuits, or even more casual dresses. They are ideal for everyday wear, light recreational activities, and casual outings.

Care

Given the suede material, proper care is essential to maintain the shoes' appearance and longevity.

  1. Initial Protection: Consider applying a suede protector spray before first wear to help repel water and stains.
  2. Regular Cleaning:
  • Allow any mud or dirt to dry completely.
  • Use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently brush off loose dirt in one direction.
  • For tougher marks, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner following the product instructions.
  • Avoid using water directly on suede, as it can stain or alter the texture.
  1. Drying: If shoes get wet, stuff them with paper towels to absorb moisture and maintain shape, then air dry away from direct heat or sunlight.
  2. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading and material degradation.
