FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for high-impact sports?
No, while the Handball Spezial has athletic roots, it is designed for casual, everyday wear and does not provide the specialized support or cushioning required for high-impact sports.
How do I choose the right size?
The Handball Spezial generally fits true to size, but since they are unisex, it is recommended to check the specific UK size conversion charts if you are transitioning from different brand sizing.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
It is strongly advised against. Machine washing can damage the leather material and the structural integrity of the shoe; cleaning should be done by hand.
Is the material waterproof?
The leather construction offers moderate resistance, but the shoes are not waterproof. They should be treated with a leather-specific water repellent if you intend to wear them in damp conditions.
Does this model come in different materials?
Yes, the Handball Spezial series is available in various materials including suede and leather depending on the specific release and variant.
Troubleshooting
Visible scuff marks on the leather surface
Use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution to gently wipe the area, followed by a light buffing with a soft cloth.
Slippage on very smooth surfaces
Ensure the rubber sole is clean; a build-up of dust or debris can reduce the effectiveness of the structured grip pattern.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Handball Spezial sneakers remain in top condition, proper care is essential. Since the upper is made of leather, avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or mud. Use a soft, dry brush to remove loose surface dirt after each wear. If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, which can cause the leather to crack.
For best results, store the shoes in a cool, dry place with shoe trees or paper inserts to help maintain their original shape. Periodically use a leather-appropriate conditioner to keep the material supple and prevent scuffing.
