FAQs

What is the primary purpose of the Handball Spezial series?

The Handball Spezial series originated as a specialized handball shoe but has evolved into a popular lifestyle and casual wear sneaker appreciated for its retro design and comfort.

Are these trainers suitable for playing handball?

While they are inspired by handball shoes, these lifestyle trainers are best suited for casual wear and light activities, not for intense athletic performance in sports like handball.

How do I determine the correct UK size?

Refer to the product's size chart provided by the retailer, or compare with other adidas shoes you own. Consider that the Handball Spezial may fit slightly differently than other models.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and overall structure. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth is the preferred method.

What is the main difference between Handball Spezial and other adidas trainers?

The Handball Spezial is characterized by its specific silhouette, often featuring a suede or leather upper, a distinctive Gum sole, and retro detailing, setting it apart from more modern or performance-oriented adidas lines.

How durable is the Gum sole?

The Gum sole is designed for durability and provides good traction for everyday wear. However, like any rubber sole, it can show wear over time with frequent use and exposure to abrasive surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.

This is common with new leather or synthetic trainers. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape.

Gum sole scuffing or showing marks.

Light scuff marks on the Gum sole can often be removed with a magic eraser or a damp cloth. For deeper marks, a specialized shoe cleaner might be necessary.

Color transfer from trainers to socks.

Some darker dyes, especially in the Gum sole or specific color accents, may transfer slightly onto light-colored socks, particularly when new or wet. This usually reduces with wear. Consider wearing darker socks initially.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Compatibility:

Designed for adult unisex wear, these trainers are compatible with a wide range of casual clothing styles. They are primarily suited for foot use on typical urban and indoor surfaces.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: For general cleaning, use a soft brush or cloth to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains, use a slightly damp cloth with mild soap. Avoid soaking the shoes.
  • Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage the materials.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or original box, to maintain their shape and protect them from dust and direct sunlight.
