FAQs
Are the adidas Handball Spezial Low Shoes suitable for playing handball?
While originally designed for handball, these shoes are now primarily considered lifestyle footwear. They offer comfort and grip for casual wear but do not provide the specialized support and technology required for modern competitive handball.
How do I clean the leather and suede parts of the shoes?
Use a soft, damp cloth for the leather. For suede, use a dedicated suede brush. Avoid water saturation and harsh cleaning agents for both materials.
What does 'Made in Germany' signify for these shoes?
The 'Made in Germany' designation highlights a commitment to high-quality craftsmanship, precision, and attention to detail in the manufacturing process.
How does the OrthoLite® Insole benefit the wearer?
The OrthoLite® Insole provides enhanced cushioning, breathability, and moisture management, contributing to all-day comfort.
What is the best way to store these shoes when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, ideally in their original box or a shoe bag to maintain their shape and protect the materials.
Can these shoes be worn by both men and women?
Yes, these shoes are designed with a unisex fit and style, making them suitable for all genders.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Leather shoes can stretch slightly with wear. Try wearing them with medium-thick socks for a few hours. If still too tight, consider if you need a half-size larger.
Suede appears dull or dirty
Use a suede brush to gently remove surface dirt. For stubborn stains, consult a specialized leather and suede cleaner.
Outsole grip seems reduced
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from mud or debris. For significantly worn outsoles, professional repair might be an option, though less common for lifestyle shoes.
