Product Information
Full details
The adidas Originals Handball Spezial trainers are designed for adults seeking a versatile fusion of heritage sporting performance and contemporary street style. Originally engineered for elite handball athletes in 1979, these trainers offer the benefit of a durable, premium leather construction paired with the modern comfort of an OrthoLite sock liner. While they provide excellent everyday comfort and iconic aesthetics, users should note that the regular fit design is tailored specifically for casual wear rather than high-intensity competitive sports today.

FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they follow standard UK sizing for a regular fit.
Can I use these for playing handball?
While originally designed for handball, modern footwear technology has advanced significantly; these are now intended as lifestyle fashion trainers.
How do I keep the white leather clean?
Wipe them down regularly with a damp cloth and use a protective leather spray to repel stains.
Is the material waterproof?
The leather offers some natural resistance, but they are not fully waterproof and should be avoided in heavy rain.
Does the shoe provide good arch support?
They provide standard support consistent with flat-soled trainers; they are not classified as orthopedic footwear.
What is the primary material used in the construction?
The upper is constructed from premium leather, and the sole is made from durable gum rubber.
Troubleshooting
Leather upper looking scuffed or dirty
Use a specialized leather cleaner and a soft microfiber cloth to gently buff away surface dirt.

Remove the OrthoLite sock liner, air it out, or replace it with a third-party performance insole if needed.

Standard flat athletic laces are compatible; simply replace them with a similar length and color.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers are designed for a standard regular fit; it is recommended to stick to your true-to-size measurement. To maintain the condition of the leather and the aesthetic appeal of the white colorway, avoid wearing them in muddy or harsh outdoor conditions. To clean, wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth and use a specialist leather cleaner if necessary. For the laces, they can be removed and hand-washed in mild soapy water if they become discolored. Ensure the shoes are air-dried away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, to prevent the leather from cracking.
