FAQs

Can I wash my adidas Handball Spezial trainers in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the suede material and compromise the structural integrity of the shoe. Use hand-cleaning methods only.

Are these shoes true to size?

The Handball Spezial generally fits true to size for most adults, though those with wider feet may prefer a half-size larger for extra room.

What is the purpose of the Torsion system?

The Torsion system is a lightweight bridge that allows the forefoot and rearfoot to move independently, providing better surface adaptation and stability.

How do I protect the suede from rain?

Use a high-quality water and stain repellent spray specifically formulated for suede leather before wearing them in wet conditions.

Are these suitable for high-intensity sports?

While based on a handball silhouette, these are lifestyle trainers. They provide great support for walking and casual activities, but are not intended for competitive indoor court sports.

Troubleshooting

Visible scuffs or dirt on the suede

Use a dry suede brush or a specialized crepe eraser to gently lift dirt and buff out minor scuff marks.

Footbed feels less supportive over time

Check the interior for debris and consider replacing the insole if the original cushioning has compressed significantly after heavy use.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality suede finish offers durability and style
  • ADIPRENE+ cushioning reduces foot fatigue during long periods of standing or walking
  • Torsion system provides excellent arch and midfoot support
  • Classic design aesthetic pairs well with both casual and athletic attire

Cons

  • Suede material is sensitive to wet conditions and mud
  • Requires specialized cleaning tools compared to synthetic materials
  • May require a short break-in period for the leather/suede to soften fully

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Handball Spezial trainers last for seasons to come, proper maintenance is essential. As these shoes feature a suede upper, they should not be machine washed, as this can ruin the texture and shape of the material. For cleaning, use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and dust. If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the suede to stiffen or crack. For optimal longevity, consider applying a suede-safe water repellent spray before initial use to protect against minor spills and environmental moisture.
