FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the adidas Handball Spezial typically fits true to standard UK sizing for adults.

Can I use these for indoor sports?

While originally designed for handball, these are currently positioned as lifestyle trainers; they lack the specific technical support required for competitive athletic performance.

How do I protect the suede?

Apply a suede-specific water and stain repellent spray before first wear to create a protective barrier.

Are these machine washable?

No, machine washing will damage the suede material and compromise the structural integrity of the shoe.

Do they provide arch support?

They feature a cushioned midsole for general comfort, but they do not provide specific orthotic arch support.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or matted

Use a suede brush in a circular motion to lift the nap and restore the texture.

Laces coming undone frequently

Ensure the laces are threaded properly through all eyelets and try a double knot if needed.

Staining on the upper

Apply a suede-safe cleaning solution sparingly with a soft brush; never soak the shoes in water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your adidas Handball Spezial trainers last, proper care is essential. Since the upper is constructed from suede, avoid wearing them in heavy rain or mud. If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the suede to stiffen or warp. For cleaning, use a dedicated suede brush to remove loose dirt and a specialized suede eraser for stubborn scuff marks. When not in use, store your trainers in a cool, dry place and use a shoe tree or stuffed paper to maintain their shape.
