FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While they are comfortable and durable for everyday activity, they are categorized as lifestyle trainers rather than dedicated high-performance running shoes.

How do I know if the size fits correctly?

There should be about a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the front of the shoe to allow for natural movement.

Can I wear these in the rain?

It is best to avoid wet weather. Suede absorbs water, which can stain the material and potentially affect the structural integrity of the shoe over time.

Is the material real leather?

The variant features high-quality suede, which is a split-leather product, offering a softer feel than standard grain leather.

How often should I clean the trainers?

A quick brush after every few wears is recommended to prevent dirt from becoming embedded in the suede fibres.

Troubleshooting

Suede is looking matted or flat

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap (fibres) back to their original texture.

Light scuff marks on the T-toe

Gently rub the area with a rubber suede eraser to lift the debris.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable suede build suited for active use
  • Excellent traction from the specialized rubber outsole
  • Iconic, versatile design that pairs well with many outfits
  • Reinforced T-toe for added longevity

Cons

  • Suede material is sensitive to water and mud
  • Lighter colour accents may show dirt more easily
  • Requires regular maintenance to keep material looking fresh

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Handball Spezial trainers, follow these guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and dust after each use. Never put suede trainers in a washing machine, as this can ruin the texture.
  2. Stain Removal: Use a gentle suede eraser for minor marks. For deeper cleaning, consult a suede-safe cleaner.
  3. Protection: Apply a water and stain repellent spray specifically formulated for suede before the first wear to create a protective barrier.
  4. Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading. Stuff with paper to maintain shape when not being worn.
