FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

No, these are lifestyle shoes inspired by handball heritage and are not designed for high-intensity running or gym performance.

How do I clean the beige leather?

Use a damp, soft cloth with a mild leather-safe soap. Avoid harsh chemicals that can discolor or dry out the leather.

Does this model fit true to size?

Yes, they generally fit true to standard UK sizing, though individual foot shape may vary.

Can I use these for sports?

While they are named after handball, this version is intended for fashion and lifestyle use, not professional indoor court sports.

Are the insoles removable?

Yes, most Handball Spezial models come with removable insoles if you need to use custom orthotics.

Troubleshooting

Leather surface shows scuffs or light marks

Use a specialized leather cleaner or a gentle eraser tool designed for sneakers to buff out light marks.

Sole grip feels slippery on wet surfaces

While the textured sole is designed for traction, ensure the tread is free from debris by brushing it with a soft-bristled brush.

Shoes feel tight after long wear

Leather can expand slightly; try loosening the laces significantly or wearing thinner socks to allow for better circulation.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your Handball Spezial shoes in top condition, ensure you choose the correct UK size based on your specific foot dimensions. Because these are made from high-quality leather, they may require a short breaking-in period to contour perfectly to your feet.

Care Instructions:

  1. Regularly wipe down the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dust.
  2. Avoid submerging the shoes in water to prevent leather degradation.
  3. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators.
  4. Use a leather-safe conditioner occasionally to maintain material suppleness and prevent cracking.
