Product Information

Full details

The adidas Performance Handball Spezial Trainers are designed for adults seeking a blend of vintage 1970s aesthetics and modern everyday comfort. These trainers are ideal for casual wear, city adventures, and leisure outings where a classic, low-profile silhouette is preferred. While the suede upper offers a premium, stylish look, it requires careful maintenance to protect the material from harsh weather conditions and stains.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for high-intensity sports?

While they originated as indoor court shoes, they are now marketed as lifestyle trainers and are best suited for daily wear rather than intense sports.

How should I clean the suede upper?

Use a specialized suede brush. Avoid water and standard soap, as these can ruin the texture and color.

Do these trainers run true to size?

The Handball Spezial generally follows standard adidas sizing, but it is always recommended to check your measurement against the UK size guide provided.

Can I use these in the rain?

It is not recommended, as suede is sensitive to water. Using a protective spray can provide a thin barrier, but prolonged exposure should be avoided.

Are the insoles removable?

The insoles are typically fixed. We recommend wearing thin, comfortable socks to ensure the best fit.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or dusty

Gently use a dedicated suede brush to lift the nap and remove dust particles.

Slight water spotting on the suede

Blot the area with a dry cloth to absorb moisture, then allow to air dry completely before brushing.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Timeless, versatile design that fits many outfits
  • Soft, premium suede material for added comfort
  • Durable rubber outsole provides good grip for walking

Cons

  • Suede material is prone to staining and water damage
  • Less cushioning compared to modern performance running shoes
  • Requires protective treatment for longevity

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Getting started with your Handball Spezial trainers is straightforward. Simply loosen the laces to adjust the tension to your preferred comfort level. Because the upper is crafted from suede, it is highly recommended to apply a suede-specific water repellent spray before wearing them outdoors for the first time. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can degrade the suede fibers and alter the shape of the trainer. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the color vibrancy.
