FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for high-intensity sports?

While originally designed for handball, this modern version is primarily intended for lifestyle and casual wear.

How do I choose the right size?

The Handball Spezial generally fits true to size. If you prefer a looser fit or plan to wear thicker socks, consider opting for your standard size.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the leather and the adhesive bonding the sole, which may compromise the shoe's structure.

What is the best way to protect the pink leather?

Apply a high-quality leather protectant spray that is safe for colored leather to shield the shoes from moisture and dirt.

Are these shoes unisex?

This specific series is cataloged for women, though the classic design is widely appreciated for its timeless appeal across genders.

Do the rubber soles mark floors?

The rubber compound used is typically non-marking, making them suitable for most indoor surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Creasing in the leather toe area

Use a shoe tree when not wearing the trainers to help maintain the original shape and minimize deep-set wrinkles.

Surface scuffs on the white accents

Gently clean scuff marks with a soft eraser or a damp cloth dipped in a mild leather-safe cleaning solution.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile vintage style suitable for casual outfits
  • Lightweight construction prevents foot fatigue
  • High-quality leather ensures long-lasting wear
  • Reliable rubber grip for daily stability

Cons

  • Light-colored accents require frequent cleaning
  • Leather material is not suitable for heavy wet-weather conditions
  • Limited arch support compared to dedicated athletic performance shoes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because the Handball Spezial uses premium leather, it is important to treat the upper with a water and stain repellent spray before the first wear. To keep them looking fresh, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dust and dirt after use. For deeper cleaning, apply a dedicated leather cleaner and avoid soaking the material, as excess water can cause the leather to stiffen. Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading of the vibrant pink upper.
