FAQs
Are the Handball Spezial trainers true to size?
Yes, they generally fit true to size for most adults, though those with wider feet may prefer a half-size up.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the suede upper and ruin the shoe's structure. Always use hand-cleaning methods.
What is the primary material used?
The upper is constructed from premium suede with leather detailing on the stripes and heel tab.
Is the outsole suitable for gym use?
While they are sports-heritage shoes, they lack the technical support of modern training footwear and are best kept for casual lifestyle use.
How do I remove small scuffs?
Use a suede eraser to gently rub the scuffed area until the mark is removed, then brush the area to blend the texture.
Is this model suitable for wet weather?
Suede is highly absorbent. It is highly recommended to use a protective spray, but they are not intended for heavy rain or snow.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks matted or flat
Use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently brush the material in one direction to restore the nap.
Water spots on the upper
Allow the shoes to dry naturally away from direct heat sources, then use a suede eraser or brush to restore the texture.
Difficulty putting on
Ensure the laces are fully loosened before sliding your foot in to prevent crushing the heel counter.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Handball Spezial trainers last as long as possible, it is essential to follow a proper maintenance routine. Before wearing them for the first time, apply a suede-specific water and stain repellent spray to protect the surface. Compatibility-wise, these trainers pair best with denim or chinos, given their low-profile build. If they become dirty, use a dedicated suede brush to lift dirt and rejuvenate the material nap. Avoid machine washing or using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can permanently damage the suede fibers and cause the dye to bleed.
