Care
Given the suede material, proper care is essential to maintain the appearance and longevity of your Handball Spezials:
- Initial Protection: Before first wear, apply a high-quality suede protector spray to create a barrier against water and stains. Repeat periodically as per product instructions.
- Regular Cleaning: Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove dirt and dust. Brush in one direction to maintain the nap of the suede.
- Spot Cleaning: For small marks, use a suede eraser. Gently rub the eraser over the stain. For tougher stains, a specialized suede cleaner foam or solution may be required. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Avoid Water: Suede is highly susceptible to water damage. Try to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions. If they do get wet, stuff them with paper to absorb moisture and let them air dry away from direct heat.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
- Deep Cleaning: For extensive dirt or stains, consider professional suede cleaning services.
