FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for playing handball?

While the Handball Spezial was originally designed for handball, their current iteration is best suited for casual wear. They offer good grip but may lack the advanced support and cushioning required for competitive play.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the size chart provided by the retailer or Adidas. These are listed in UK adult sizing. It's recommended to measure your foot and compare it to the chart for the best fit.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear suede shoes in heavy rain. Suede can be damaged by excessive moisture. Using a suede protector spray can offer some resistance to light water exposure.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper of these Handball Spezial sneakers is primarily made of suede.

How do I clean the gum sole?

The gum sole can typically be cleaned with a damp cloth or a mild soap solution. For scuff marks, a magic eraser can be effective.

What does 'Gum2' refer to in the color description?

'Gum2' refers to the specific shade and type of gum rubber used for the outsole, which is a characteristic brown or off-white color providing grip.

Are there other color options available?

Yes, the Handball Spezial series is available in various colorways. This guide focuses on the Off White, Collegiate Green, and Gum2 combination.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears matted or dirty

Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For persistent dirt, use a dedicated suede cleaner, following product instructions carefully. Allow to air dry completely.

Gum sole shows scuff marks

Mild scuff marks on the gum sole can often be removed with a magic eraser or a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a bit of toothpaste applied with a soft cloth may help.

Shoes feel stiff initially

New shoes, especially those with suede uppers, can be a bit stiff. Wear them for short periods initially to break them in gradually. Walking around indoors can help.

Color transfer from suede

This is more common with new, darker suede. Wear darker socks initially. A suede protector can help minimize color transfer. Ensure the shoes are fully dry before wearing.
