FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for playing handball?
While inspired by handball shoes, these are primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle use. They do not offer the specialized performance features of modern athletic footwear.
How do I clean the red suede?
Use a soft suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner specifically designed for colored suede, and test on an inconspicuous area first. Always allow to air dry.
Will the red color fade?
Like most dyed materials, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause colors to fade over time. Storing them away from direct light when not in use can help preserve the color.
What is the Torsion system?
The Torsion system is an adidas technology that provides midfoot support and stability. It allows the shoe to rotate more freely around the arch while the forefoot and rearfoot move independently.
Are they waterproof?
No, the suede material is not waterproof and is susceptible to water damage and staining. It is recommended to use a suede protector spray for water resistance.
What kind of socks should I wear with them?
These trainers can be worn with a variety of socks, including athletic socks, ankle socks, or no-show socks, depending on your preference and the outfit.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or dirty
Use a suede brush to gently remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a dedicated suede cleaner, following the product's instructions. Ensure the shoes are completely dry before brushing.
Shoes feel stiff initially
This is common with new suede shoes. Wear them for short periods indoors to break them in gradually. The material will soften with use.
Laces fraying
Replace laces with standard trainer laces. Ensure they are of a similar material and length for the best fit.
