FAQs

Can I wash these in a machine?

No. Machine washing will damage the suede and the structural integrity of the trainers. Stick to manual surface cleaning.

Are these true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing for adidas footwear. If you have wider feet, consider checking the fit against your current adidas models.

How do I protect the silver stripes?

Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the leather stripes. Avoid applying heavy chemicals to the metallic finish as it may cause dulling.

Are these suitable for gym use?

While they feature a grippy outsole, they are designed as lifestyle trainers rather than performance athletic shoes.

What is the best way to store them?

Store in a breathable shoe bag or box in a cool, dry area to prevent humidity damage and direct light exposure.

Troubleshooting

Visible dust or lint on suede

Gently use a soft-bristled suede brush to restore the nap and lift away surface particles.

Water spots on suede

Lightly dampen the entire suede surface with a suede-safe cleaner and allow to air dry naturally away from heat sources.

Pros and Cons

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Handball Spezial trainers last, proper care is essential. Since the upper is suede, treat the shoes with a protective suede-specific water repellent spray before first use. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt or dust. For stubborn spots, use a dedicated suede eraser, moving in one direction to maintain the material's nap. Avoid using water or harsh detergents, as these can permanently discolor or stiffen the suede. When not in use, store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading. Ensure you are wearing the correct UK size for your foot to avoid excessive creasing or wear on the side panels.
