FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for playing handball?

While the Handball Spezial has heritage roots in handball, they are best suited for casual wear and light activities today. They may not provide the advanced support and cushioning needed for competitive play.

How do I clean the oiled leather?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For deeper cleaning or conditioning, use products specifically designed for oiled leather, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Do these shoes run true to size?

Generally, adidas Originals footwear runs true to size for most customers. It's always recommended to check available size guides and consider trying them on if possible.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

The leather is treated, but they are not waterproof. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain. If they get wet, dry them naturally away from heat.

What is the main benefit of the curvilinear outsole?

The curvilinear outsole is designed to provide lightweight grip and flexibility, enhancing comfort and stability during everyday wear.

How often should I condition the leather?

The frequency depends on usage and environmental conditions. As a general guideline, conditioning every 3-6 months or when the leather appears dry can help maintain its quality.

What does the gold foil wordmark signify?

The gold foil wordmark on the tongue and lateral side is a premium detail that signifies the shoe's classic status and authentic adidas Originals branding.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears dry or dull

Apply a suitable leather conditioner for oiled leather. Ensure you follow the product's instructions and test on a small area first.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces

Ensure the rubber outsoles are clean. For persistent issues, consider a product that can add a bit more grip, though the curvilinear design aims for good traction.

Shoes feel stiff initially

Wear the shoes around the house for short periods to break them in. The natural leather will conform to your foot shape over time.

Water stains on the leather

For minor water spots, allow the shoe to dry naturally. For more significant stains, professional leather cleaning might be necessary, or gentle conditioning may help blend the marks.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: For the oiled leather, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and debris. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

  3. Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with paper to absorb moisture and let them air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or their original box to protect them from dust and damage.
