FAQs
How should I clean the green suede on my sneakers?
For general cleaning, gently wipe stains with a damp cloth. For deeper cleaning or scuffs, use a suede brush and a specialized suede cleaner, following the cleaner's instructions carefully. Avoid excessive moisture and never machine wash.
Are these sneakers waterproof?
No, the suede material is not inherently waterproof. Exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions can damage the suede. We recommend applying a suede protectant spray for improved water resistance, but always test on an inconspicuous area first.
What does 'regular fit' mean for these shoes?
A 'regular fit' means the shoe is designed to accommodate a standard foot width and arch. It should provide comfortable space without being too tight or too loose for most wearers, aligning with typical sizing standards.
Can I wear these for actual handball or other sports?
While originally inspired by handball shoes, these Adidas Originals Handball Spezial sneakers are primarily designed for casual wear and light recreational activities. For high-performance or competitive sports, dedicated athletic footwear engineered for those specific demands is generally recommended.
How do I know my correct size, as this is listed as EU 45?
These shoes are listed as Men's EU 45, which typically corresponds to UK 10.5. We recommend checking Adidas' official sizing chart for precise conversions or, if possible, trying them on to ensure the best fit, as sizes can sometimes vary slightly between models.
What is the sole of the shoe made of?
The sole is made of durable rubber. This material provides good grip, flexibility, and wear resistance, making the sneakers suitable for everyday use on various surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears stained or dirty
Gently wipe stains with a damp cloth as instructed. For tougher marks, consider a specialized suede cleaner and brush, following product directions and testing on an inconspicuous area first.
Shoes feel uncomfortable or rub
Ensure you are wearing the correct size; these are EU 45 (UK 10.5). Adjust the lacing to achieve a snug but not overly tight fit. A short break-in period might be needed for new shoes to conform to your foot.
Slipping on certain surfaces
The rubber sole is designed for general traction. However, on extremely wet, icy, or polished surfaces, exercise caution. Ensure the sole is clean of debris, as trapped particles can reduce grip.

Care
Proper care is essential to maintain the appearance and longevity of your suede sneakers:
- Cleaning Stains: For minor stains or dirt, gently wipe the affected area with a damp cloth. Avoid rubbing aggressively.
- Deeper Cleaning: For stubborn marks or overall refresh, use a specialized suede cleaner and a suede brush. Always follow the product's instructions and test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Protection: Suede is sensitive to water. Consider applying a suede protector spray before first wear to create a barrier against moisture and stains. Reapply periodically.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Air dry at room temperature; never use direct heat (like a radiator or hairdryer), which can damage the suede.
- Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading and material degradation.
