Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These are ready-to-wear shoes. Ensure you have selected the correct size for your foot. The lace closure allows for a customized fit.
Compatibility: The Handball Spezial trainers are designed for general adult wear and pair well with a wide range of casual clothing styles. They are not intended for specific sports or activities that require specialized footwear.
Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your leather trainers:
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather upper with a slightly damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, use a mild leather cleaner. Avoid soaking the shoes.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the leather.
- Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to help repel water and stains, especially for lighter colorways.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
