FAQs

Are the Handball Spezial shoes suitable for sports?

While inspired by athletic heritage, the Handball Spezial is primarily designed as a casual lifestyle sneaker. For intense athletic performance, dedicated sports shoes are recommended.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is crafted from durable leather.

How should I clean the brown and white leather?

Use a damp cloth for general cleaning and a leather-specific cleaner for tougher stains. Allow to air dry naturally.

What is the purpose of the gum sole?

The gum sole provides traction and grip, while also being a signature design element of the Handball Spezial series.

Do these shoes come in other colors?

The Handball Spezial series is available in various colorways. This specific guide focuses on the brown and white variant.

How do I find the right size?

It is recommended to check the adidas sizing chart and measure your foot length. Many users find these fit true to size, but variations can occur.

Can I machine wash these shoes?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather and construction of the shoe.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose

Consider trying a different size or using insoles/thicker socks for minor adjustments. Refer to the sizing chart for accurate measurements before purchasing.

Gum sole scuff marks

Gently rub scuff marks with a pencil eraser or a magic eraser. For persistent marks, use a specialized sole cleaner.

Leather creasing

Creasing is natural with leather. To minimize appearance, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees for storage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These shoes require no setup. Simply unbox and wear.

Compatibility: The Handball Spezial is a low-top shoe designed for general adult footwear. It is compatible with most casual attire.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a slightly damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For stubborn stains, use a specialized leather cleaner. Avoid soaking the shoes.
  2. Soles: Clean the gum sole with a damp cloth or a soft brush. For scuff marks, a magic eraser can be effective.
  3. Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the leather.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box, to protect them from dust and maintain their shape. Consider using shoe trees to preserve the form.
