FAQs
Are the Handball Spezial Trainers suitable for playing handball?
While originally designed for handball, their current iteration is best suited for casual wear and lifestyle use due to modern athletic shoe advancements. They offer good grip and comfort for daily activities.
How do I know if I have the right size?
The trainers feature a regular fit. They should feel snug but not tight, with enough room in the toe box. It's recommended to try them on or consult a size chart if purchasing online.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather and construction. Hand clean using a damp cloth and mild cleaning agents as specified in the care instructions.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is primarily constructed from leather, offering a premium look and feel.
What is the main benefit of the gum rubber outsole?
The gum rubber outsole provides excellent durability and reliable grip, contributing to both comfort and stability during wear.
How should I store the trainers when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees inserted to help maintain their shape and prevent creasing.
Troubleshooting
Laces become worn or damaged
Replace laces with standard shoe laces of a similar length. Ensure they are threaded through the eyelets correctly for a secure fit.
Leather upper appears dry or creased
Apply a small amount of leather conditioner to moisturize the material. Use shoe trees to help maintain shape and reduce creasing when not in use.
Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces
Ensure the gum rubber sole is clean and free from excessive dirt or debris. For very smooth surfaces, consider the limitations of any rubber sole.
