FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for sports?
The adidas Originals Handball Spezial trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and offer comfort for everyday activities. While they have a rubber outsole for grip, they are not intended for high-performance athletic activities.
How do I clean the trainers?
Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap solution if necessary. Allow them to air dry naturally away from heat. Avoid machine washing.
What does ADIPRENE® do?
ADIPRENE® is a material used in the forefoot and under the heel to provide shock absorption, enhancing comfort during wear.
What is the difference between 'Spezial' and other adidas series?
The 'Spezial' series often draws inspiration from classic adidas archive styles, particularly those related to handball and indoor sports, reinterpreting them for modern casual wear.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the rubber outsole provides some grip, the trainers are primarily made of cotton and may not be ideal for heavy rain. They are best suited for dry or moderately wet conditions.
What materials are these trainers made from?
The upper is typically made from a combination of materials, often including cotton, with a rubber outsole and EVA midsole. Specific material composition may vary.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels slightly off
As sizing can vary, try a different size if available or consult the brand's specific size chart. Ensure laces are adjusted correctly for a snug fit.
Traction feels reduced
Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove any accumulated dirt or debris that may be affecting grip.
Discomfort during wear
Ensure socks are appropriate for trainers. Break in the shoes gradually with short periods of wear to allow them to mold to your feet.
Gold foil lettering shows wear
Avoid abrasive cleaning methods on the lettering. Gentle wiping with a damp cloth is recommended.
