adidas Handball Spezial - Brown Suede - 9.5 UK

While the original design is inspired by handball, these are now lifestyle trainers. They are suitable for light everyday activity and casual wear but are not recommended for high-performance sports like running, basketball, or competitive handball.

To maintain the color, regularly clean off dirt and dust. Use clear leather conditioners or polishes formulated for brown leather. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading.

Leather offers some resistance to light moisture, but these trainers are not fully waterproof. It's highly recommended to apply a water-repellent leather protector before wearing them in damp conditions and to avoid heavy rain to prolong their life and maintain their appearance.

Adidas sizing is generally considered true to fit. However, individual foot shapes vary. For the most accurate fit, we recommend consulting the official Adidas size chart or trying them on if possible.

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Using shoe trees is highly recommended to help them maintain their shape and absorb any lingering moisture, especially after wear.

The rubber sole can be cleaned effectively with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution. For more stubborn dirt or grime, a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) can be used to gently scrub the sole.

Regularly apply a good quality leather conditioner (every 2-3 months) to moisturize the material and prevent drying or cracking. For very stiff shoes, gentle manipulation and consistent wear may help soften them.

For light marks, gently wipe with a damp cloth. For more stubborn stains or scuffs, use a leather cleaner specifically designed for shoes. Apply sparingly with a soft cloth and always test on an inconspicuous area first. For deeper scuffs, a leather repair cream or polish matching the shoe's color might be needed.

This can sometimes be caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, sprinkling a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch inside the shoe, and then reinserting the insole. If the squeak persists, it might be due to the sole construction and may require professional attention.

Ensure shoes are fully aired out after each wear. Use cedar shoe trees to absorb moisture and odor, or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight and then shake it out. Specialized shoe deodorizers can also be effective.
