FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The Handball Spezial are designed for casual wear and light athletic activities. They do not provide the specialized support or cushioning required for serious running.

How do I determine my UK size?

Refer to the Adidas sizing chart or measure your foot length and compare it with the provided UK size guide. Generally, measure from the heel to the tip of your longest toe.

Can I wash these shoes in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the suede, leather, and sole construction.

What is the sole height?

The sole height is approximately 2 cm, with the highest point reaching 3 cm.

Do these shoes offer good arch support?

The shoes feature an anatomical fit for comfort, but they do not have specialized arch support features. For those needing significant arch support, insoles may be considered.

What does 'Anatomical fit' mean?

Anatomical fit means the shoe is shaped to follow the natural contours of the foot, providing a comfortable and supportive feel that adapts to your foot's shape.

Are these shoes waterproof?

The shoes are not waterproof. The suede and leather materials can be damaged by excessive moisture. Using a waterproofing spray is recommended for protection.

Troubleshooting

Suede material looks dirty or stained

Use a dedicated suede brush to lift dirt. For stubborn stains, a suede cleaner or a slightly damp cloth may be used sparingly, followed by air drying and brushing.

Shoes feel stiff initially

Wear the shoes around the house for short periods to allow the suede and leather to mold to your feet. Consider using a shoe tree to help maintain shape and gently stretch if needed.

Gum sole has scuff marks

Light scuff marks can often be removed with a magic eraser or a damp cloth. For tougher marks, a mild soap solution might be effective, followed by a rinse and thorough drying.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Comfortable anatomical fit for all-day wear.
  • Durable construction suitable for light athletic activities and daily use.
  • Excellent grip provided by the gum rubber outsole.
  • Versatile retro style that pairs well with various outfits.
  • Premium materials like suede and leather enhance feel and durability.

Cons

  • Suede upper requires regular cleaning and protection to maintain appearance.
  • Low-profile design may offer less ankle support compared to high-top shoes.
  • Caramel gum sole can show scuffs and dirt more readily.
  • Not designed for high-impact or professional sports.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: These shoes require no assembly or setup. They are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility: Suitable for adult males. Sizing is available in UK adult foot sizes.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: For the suede upper, use a suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but avoid excessive moisture. For the leather and rubber parts, a damp cloth is generally sufficient.
  • Protection: Consider using a suede protector spray to guard against water and stains, especially for the cream suede areas.
  • Drying: If the shoes become wet, stuff them with paper to help them retain their shape and air dry them away from direct heat sources.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or original box to prevent dust accumulation and maintain shape.
