FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for actual handball?

While originally designed for the sport, modern handball footwear has advanced significantly. These are now intended primarily for casual lifestyle use.

Can I wash these in a washing machine?

No. Washing machine cycles can damage the suede material and weaken the adhesives used on the gum sole.

Does the suede require any initial treatment?

It is recommended to apply a protective suede spray before the first wear to guard against water and dirt.

How should I store them?

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the colours from fading.

What is the fit like?

They feature a regular fit true to standard UK sizing, providing a secure feel for most adult foot types.

Troubleshooting

Visible dust or dirt on the suede

Use a specialized suede brush to gently lift dirt in the direction of the nap.

Creasing in the suede upper

Insert shoe trees when not in use to help the material maintain its natural shape.

Stubborn surface stains

Use a suede eraser block to lightly buff away dry stains; do not use heavy liquid cleaners.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For the best fit, ensure you select your standard UK size, as these trainers are designed with a regular fit. To keep your suede in optimal condition, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dust after each wear. If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the material to harden. Periodically applying a suede-specific water repellent spray can help protect against minor spills and environmental debris.
