FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running or sports?

The adidas Originals Handball Spezial Low Shoes are primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle use. While they offer good traction, they are not engineered for high-impact athletic performance like running or court sports.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap to clean the leather. Gently wipe away dirt and stains. For best results, condition the leather afterwards with a suitable leather conditioner.

What is the best way to break in these shoes?

Wear the shoes for short periods initially, gradually increasing the duration. Using them around the house before wearing them out for extended periods can help them mold to your feet comfortably.

Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather, sole, and overall structure of the shoe.

How does the sizing run for these shoes?

These shoes generally follow standard adult sizing. However, individual fit can vary. It is recommended to consult size charts and consider trying them on if possible, as some users find them to fit slightly narrow.

What is the material of the sole?

The sole is made of gum rubber, which provides durability and classic traction characteristic of vintage athletic footwear.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable

Leather shoes often require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in phase or exploring leather stretching products if discomfort persists.

Gum sole scuffing or marking surfaces

Gum soles can sometimes leave marks on certain floor types. This is a characteristic of gum rubber. Regular cleaning of the sole can help minimize transfer.

Leather shows creases or minor marks

Creases and minor marks are natural signs of wear on leather. These can be reduced with proper conditioning and care. Use a leather conditioner periodically.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: The Handball Spezial Low Shoes are designed for adult casual wear. They are compatible with a wide range of casual attire, including jeans, chinos, shorts, and athletic-inspired outfits.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: For general cleaning, use a soft brush or cloth to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains on the leather, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hair dryers, as this can damage the leather.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or their original box to protect them from dust and maintain their shape.
