FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

The Handball Spezial generally fits true to size for most adults, though those with wider feet may prefer to try them on to ensure the linen upper offers enough flexibility.

Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash your trainers, as the heat and agitation can damage the structure and the adhesive of the gum sole. Stick to hand cleaning.

Is the linen material water-resistant?

Linen is a porous fabric. While durable, it is not naturally water-resistant. Using a textile-safe water repellent spray is advised for better protection.

What is the primary material used for the upper?

The upper is constructed from high-quality linen, which provides a lightweight and breathable experience.

Can these be used for actual handball matches?

While originally designed for handball, modern specialized athletic shoes offer more technical support. These are best used for lifestyle and casual wear.

How should I store these trainers to maintain their shape?

Store them in a cool, dry place and use shoe trees or stuff them with acid-free paper to help maintain their silhouette when not in use.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt on the linen upper

Use a soft dry brush to remove loose dust first, then gently spot clean with a cloth dampened with a mild detergent solution.

Gum sole losing traction

Wipe the bottom of the soles with a damp cloth to remove compacted dirt or dust that may be affecting the rubber's surface grip.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent grip provided by the gum sole
  • Breathable and lightweight linen upper
  • Versatile and iconic design aesthetic
  • Reliable comfort for daily activities

Cons

  • Linen material is susceptible to staining
  • Not suitable for heavy-duty sports or outdoor trail use
  • Light colored accents require regular cleaning

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your adidas Handball Spezial trainers, keep them away from harsh cleaning chemicals that could degrade the linen fibers. If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the materials. For the gum sole, a soft brush and mild soapy water can remove debris. We recommend using a water-repellent spray specifically designed for fabric footwear to protect the linen upper from light spills and dirt buildup.
