FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the Handball Spezial series runs normal, and you should order your usual size.

Can I wear these for outdoor sports?

While durable, the suede material is best suited for indoor courts or dry street conditions.

What is the purpose of the TORSION SYSTEM?

The TORSION SYSTEM provides midfoot stability, allowing the forefoot and rearfoot to move independently.

How do I clean mud off the suede?

Allow the mud to dry completely, then gently brush it off with a dry suede brush.

Does the shoe provide good arch support?

Yes, the combination of the EVA midsole and TORSION support provides consistent arch comfort.

Troubleshooting

Suede surface looking dusty or matted

Use a specialized suede brush or a soft-bristled brush to gently lift the nap of the material in one direction.

Shoe feels too tight during initial wear

The EVA construction will naturally conform to your foot shape after a short break-in period; wear thinner socks initially to ease the process.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These shoes are designed to run true to size, so it is recommended to order your usual footwear size for the best fit. To maintain the integrity of the suede upper, use a dedicated suede brush to remove loose dirt and dust after each use. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can degrade the adhesive and alter the shape of the suede. If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the material to stiffen or crack.
