FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for playing handball?

While inspired by handball shoes, the Handball Spezial are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. They are not optimized for the specific demands of competitive handball.

How do I clean the embossed croc pattern?

Clean the embossed pattern gently with a soft, damp cloth. For more thorough cleaning, use a leather cleaner designed for textured leather, testing in a small area first.

What is the fit like?

These shoes feature a regular fit, designed to be comfortable for most adult feet. However, individual fit can vary.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

The leather upper is not waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, prolonged exposure to rain is not recommended. Ensure they are properly dried afterward.

What materials are the shoes made of?

The shoes feature a leather and synthetic upper, synthetic lining, and a rubber outsole. They also include suede accents.

How should I store these trainers?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using a shoe tree can help maintain their shape over time.

What does 'Handball Spezial' mean?

'Spezial' is German for 'special'. The Handball Spezial was originally a specialized shoe for handball players, but has since become a popular lifestyle model.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and wear them for short periods to allow the leather to adapt to your foot shape. Consider using thicker socks for initial wear.

Suede appears matted or dirty

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently restore the nap. For stubborn dirt, apply a suede cleaner following product instructions.

Leather shows scuffs or marks

For minor scuffs, a leather conditioner or a cleaner specifically for leather can often help. Test in an inconspicuous area first.

Gum sole is discolored

Gently clean the sole with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals that might damage the rubber.
