Are these shoes suitable for playing handball?
While originally designed for handball, they are now primarily considered a lifestyle and street-style shoe. They are not recommended for competitive handball due to modern athletic requirements.
How should I clean the Cream White accents?
For the Cream White leather or synthetic accents, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the material or adjacent suede.

The fit is generally considered true to size for a low-top shoe. However, individual fit can vary. It's recommended to try them on if possible, or refer to sizing guides.
Can I machine wash these shoes?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the suede, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoe.
What does 'Preloved Green' refer to?
'Preloved Green' refers to the specific shade of green used for the shoe's colorway, giving it a vintage or worn-in aesthetic.
What does the gold 'SPEZIAL' branding signify?

Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or dirty.
Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For tougher marks, try a suede eraser or consult specialized suede cleaning guides.
Shoes feel stiff initially.
Wear the shoes for short periods to allow the suede to soften and conform to your foot shape. Avoid prolonged intense activity until broken in.
Water spots on suede.
Allow the shoe to air dry naturally. Once dry, gently brush the suede to lift the nap. Applying a suede protector can help prevent future spotting.
