Full details

These trainers provide excellent grip and daily wearability thanks to their signature gum rubber outsole and plush interior cushioning, though the suede material requires careful attention to maintain its appearance over time.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

No, these are lifestyle trainers designed for casual use, not for athletic performance or running.

How do I clean the suede material?

Use a soft brush to remove dirt. For deeper stains, use a suede eraser or a dedicated suede cleaning product.

Do they fit true to size?

Yes, they generally run true to standard UK adult sizing.

Can the insoles be removed?

The OrthoLite sock liners are designed for comfort but are typically replaceable if you require custom orthotics.

Are these trainers waterproof?

No, the suede upper is not waterproof. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain to prevent damage.

What is the primary material?

The primary upper material is high-quality suede, featuring a rubber gum outsole.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or matted

Gently use a suede-specific brush to lift the nap of the material and restore its texture.

Laces becoming undone frequently

Ensure the laces are threaded properly through the eyelets and consider a double-knot if you prefer a more secure fit.

Visible water or dirt spots

Use a specialized suede cleaning kit. Never submerge the shoes in water or place them in a washing machine.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Handball Spezial trainers stay in top condition, follow these guidelines:

  1. Initial Setup: Ensure the laces are adjusted to your preferred tension upon first wear to allow the shoe to mold to your foot shape.
  2. Compatibility: These trainers fit true to size. They are compatible with most casual wardrobes and function well in dry-to-mild weather conditions.
  3. Care Instructions: Because these are made of suede, avoid exposing them to heavy rain or muddy terrain. Use a soft-bristled suede brush to remove loose dirt or dust. For more significant spots, use a specialized suede eraser or cleaning solution. Always store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
