FAQs

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is primarily made of premium leather with suede accents on the T-tobox.

Is this shoe suitable for professional handball?

While inspired by handball, these trainers are best suited for casual wear and light athletic activities. They may not provide the specialized support required for professional, high-impact sports.

How do I clean the gum rubber sole?

Wipe the gum rubber sole with a damp cloth. For tougher dirt, use a mild soap and water solution, then wipe clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.

What is the main color of this shoe?

The main color is Wonder White, with Core Black accents and a Magic Beige suede toebox.

Are these shoes true to size?

Sizing can vary between individuals. It is recommended to consult the brand's size guide or try them on if possible to ensure the best fit.

Can I wear these in wet conditions?

The leather can handle light moisture, but the suede accents are sensitive to water. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to preserve the materials.

What is the 'SPEZIAL' branding?

Spezial is a line from adidas that pays homage to classic athletic footwear, often drawing inspiration from archival designs. The 'SPEZIAL' branding indicates this shoe is part of that heritage collection.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Consider using thicker socks or alternative lacing techniques to adjust the fit.

Suede appears dirty or matted

Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap. For stains, try a suede eraser. Avoid using water directly on the suede.

Leather shows scuffs or marks

Wipe clean with a damp cloth. For minor scuffs, a leather conditioner or shoe polish matching the color may help. For deeper marks, professional leather cleaning might be considered.

Gum sole discolored

Clean with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution. Stubborn discoloration might be difficult to remove completely without affecting the material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready-to-wear shoes. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal comfort and performance. The lace-up closure allows for a customizable fit.

Compatibility: The adidas Handball Spezial is designed for general adult use. It is compatible with most casual and athletic apparel. While not designed for professional sports, they are suitable for light training and everyday activities.

Care:

  1. Cleaning Leather: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For tougher stains, a mild leather cleaner can be applied sparingly with a soft cloth, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
  2. Cleaning Suede: Use a dedicated suede brush to remove dirt and restore the nap. For stains, a suede eraser can be effective. Avoid getting the suede parts wet.
  3. Outsole: Clean the gum rubber outsole with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Ensure it is dry before wearing.
  4. Laces: Remove laces and wash them separately by hand or in a garment bag in the washing machine.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use shoe trees to help maintain their shape if storing for extended periods.
