Full details

The adidas Handball Spezial is an iconic terrace classic reimagined for the modern wardrobe, perfect for individuals seeking a blend of vintage sport heritage and vibrant contemporary style. These trainers offer a slim, sleek profile that excels in casual, everyday settings; however, because they feature a soft suede upper, they are best suited for dry-weather wear rather than wet or muddy environments.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

No. While they have a sports heritage, they are designed for casual wear and lack the cushioning and stability features found in modern running shoes.

How do I clean the suede upper?

Use a specialized suede brush for dry cleaning. Avoid using water or heavy soaps, as these can damage the texture of the suede.

Do these trainers fit true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing for adults. If you have particularly wide feet, you may find the slim profile slightly snug.

Can I wear these in the rain?

It is not recommended. Suede absorbs water easily and can become stained or discolored. Always check the weather forecast before wearing them out.

What is the material used for the stripes?

The iconic stripes are typically made of durable synthetic materials that provide a sharp contrast to the soft suede upper.

Troubleshooting

Scuffs on the suede upper

Use a dry, soft-bristled suede brush to gently buff the affected area until the mark disappears.

Soling looking dull or dirty

Wipe the gum rubber sole with a damp cloth and mild soap to restore its original appearance.

Water spots on suede

Allow the shoe to dry completely, then use a suede eraser or brush to lift the nap of the material.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Timeless, retro-inspired aesthetic that pairs well with casual outfits
  • Lightweight and slim profile for comfortable all-day wear
  • High-quality suede material offers a premium look and feel
  • Versatile colorway that works across different seasons

Cons

  • Suede material is sensitive to water and mud
  • Offers less arch support than modern performance-focused trainers
  • Low-profile sole is not intended for rigorous athletic use

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  • Sizing: These trainers fit standard adult UK sizing. Ensure you select the correct size, as the suede material provides some flexibility over time but does not stretch significantly.
  • Care Instructions: To maintain the appearance of the suede, use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and dust. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
  • Protection: We highly recommend applying a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede before the first wear to protect the yellow upper from light moisture and dirt.
  • Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the vibrant yellow color from fading.
