Setup
These trainers feature a classic lace closure.
- Unlace the shoes sufficiently to allow your child's foot to slide in comfortably.
- Insert the foot, ensuring the heel is properly seated.
- Tighten the laces starting from the toe box upwards, ensuring a snug but not overly tight fit.
- Tie the laces securely with a double knot for active wear to prevent them from coming undone.
Compatibility
The adidas Originals Handball Spezial trainers are designed with a regular fit, making them suitable for most children's foot shapes without being too restrictive or loose. They are sized in UK children's sizes (e.g., Size 12 UK). These shoes are unisex, making them appropriate for all children. Their versatile style pairs well with a variety of casual outfits.
Care
The suede upper requires specific care to maintain its quality and appearance.
- Regular Cleaning: Use a soft brush (a dedicated suede brush or soft toothbrush) to gently brush off dirt and dust. Always brush in one direction.
- Spot Cleaning: For small marks, use a suede eraser to gently rub away the stain. For tougher stains, a suede cleaner specifically designed for suede can be applied sparingly according to the product instructions.
- Protection: Consider applying a suede protector spray before initial wear and periodically thereafter. This helps repel water and prevent stains.
- Drying: If shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain shape. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight, as this can damage the suede.
- Avoid Washing Machine: Do not put suede shoes in a washing machine or tumble dryer.
