FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the adidas Handball Spezial typically fits true to size for most wearers.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the suede and the structural integrity of the shoe; hand cleaning is strongly recommended.

Are these suitable for playing handball?

While originally designed for handball, they are now marketed primarily as a lifestyle trainer and lack the modern performance technology found in contemporary indoor sports shoes.

How do I protect the suede?

Apply a water-repellent spray designed for suede and nubuck leather before your first use.

Are they unisex?

Yes, the design is a unisex style, suitable for any gender.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is crafted from high-quality suede.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or dusty

Use a specialized suede brush in one direction to lift the nap and remove surface dust.

Stubborn stains on the suede

Apply a suede-specific cleaning foam or eraser and follow the product instructions carefully.

Laces becoming untied frequently

Ensure you are using a double knot if the flat laces feel slippery, or replace with high-friction cotton laces.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Iconic and timeless terrace-style aesthetic
  • High level of comfort provided by OrthoLite liners
  • Durable construction with high-quality suede
  • Classic gum rubber outsole offers excellent grip

Cons

  • Suede material requires protection from wet weather
  • Limited arch support compared to dedicated performance sports shoes
  • Specific maintenance required to keep black suede vibrant

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Handball Spezial trainers maintain their shape, use a shoe horn when putting them on to avoid crushing the heel counter. For cleaning, gently brush the suede with a dedicated soft-bristled brush to remove dust and dirt. Use a suede-safe protective spray before wearing them for the first time to repel water and stains. If the gum sole becomes marked, a damp cloth with mild soap is typically sufficient to restore the original appearance.
