FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

No, these are lifestyle trainers designed for casual wear and walking, not for high-impact running or athletic training.

Can I wash these in a washing machine?

It is strongly recommended not to machine wash suede footwear, as water can cause the material to stiffen or change color.

Do these shoes run true to size?

The Handball Spezial generally follows standard UK sizing. We recommend checking the size guide to ensure a comfortable fit for your specific foot measurements.

How do I protect the suede from rain?

Apply a high-quality suede-specific water repellent spray before wearing the shoes for the first time.

Is the sole non-marking?

Yes, the natural rubber outsole is designed for indoor surfaces and is typically non-marking.

Troubleshooting

Suede surface looking matted or worn

Use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently stroke the fabric in one direction to restore the texture.

Laces coming undone frequently

Ensure the laces are threaded properly through all eyelets and consider a double knot for a more secure fit.

Minor scuffs on the rubber outsole

Wipe the rubber edges with a damp cloth or a mild eraser sponge to remove surface-level scuffs.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality suede material provides a sophisticated look
  • Lightweight and low-profile design ideal for all-day city use
  • Classic design fits seamlessly into a variety of fashion styles
  • Reliable lace-up fit for increased stability

Cons

  • Suede material is susceptible to staining and water damage
  • Not intended for high-intensity athletic or gym performance
  • Provides minimal arch support compared to modern technical running shoes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Handball Spezial trainers maintain their condition, perform a quick "break-in" period by wearing them around the house for a few hours. The shoes feature a standard UK size 5 fit with a lace-up closure that should be adjusted to balance comfort and support.

Care Instructions:

  1. Use a suede brush: Gently brush the surface regularly to lift dirt and maintain the nap of the suede.
  2. Avoid moisture: Keep the shoes away from heavy rain or muddy conditions, as suede absorbs liquids quickly.
  3. Spot clean: For light marks, use a specialized suede eraser rather than water.
  4. Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the beige color from fading.
