FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
The Handball Spezial generally follows standard UK sizing; however, since they are leather, they may stretch slightly after the first few wears.
Can I wear these for sports?
While originally designed for handball, this specific fashion-oriented model is intended for lifestyle and casual use.
How do I protect the animal print finish?
Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners. A soft cloth and mild soap are sufficient for keeping the patterned leather looking new.
Is the sole non-marking?
Yes, the classic gum rubber sole is non-marking, making it safe for indoor and outdoor wear.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The silhouette is relatively slim, but the flexibility of the leather upper provides a comfortable fit for most foot shapes.
Troubleshooting
Leather showing minor scuffs
Use a matching leather conditioner or a leather-specific eraser to buff out light scuffs gently.
Gum sole losing traction
Clean the bottom of the soles with a warm, soapy cloth to remove debris and oils that accumulate over time.
Creasing at the toe box
Use a shoe tree when the trainers are not being worn to help maintain the original shape and minimize deep creases.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your trainers remain in top condition, follow these simple guidelines. For cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the surface, and wipe the leather with a slightly damp, lint-free cloth. Avoid soaking the shoes in water, as this can damage the leather finish. For storage, keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the vibrant green colour and animal print from fading. These shoes are highly compatible with slim-fit jeans, joggers, or casual chinos, making them a highly flexible addition to any wardrobe.
