FAQs

Are the Adidas Handball Spezial true to size?

Generally, Adidas Handball Spezial run true to size. However, it's always recommended to consult size charts and customer reviews for the most accurate fit.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

While the gum sole offers some grip, these sneakers are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the suede material.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper primarily features suede overlays on a base material, providing a combination of texture and durability.

How should I store these sneakers when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag, away from direct sunlight to maintain their color and material integrity.

Are these shoes suitable for sports?

The Adidas Handball Spezial are primarily lifestyle sneakers designed for casual wear and comfort. They are not recommended for high-impact sports or athletic training.

What does 'Semi Flash Aqua/Impact Orange/Gum' refer to?

This refers to the specific colorway of the shoe: 'Semi Flash Aqua' is the primary light blue color, 'Impact Orange' is an accent color, and 'Gum' refers to the color of the outsole.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or matted

Use a suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn stains, consider a suede cleaner or eraser.

Gum sole has scuff marks

Gently rub scuff marks with a clean eraser or a damp cloth. For persistent marks, a non-acetone nail polish remover on a cotton swab can be carefully used, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Laces feel stiff or dirty

Remove laces and wash them separately by hand with mild soap and water. Allow them to air dry completely before re-lacing.

Fit feels too tight initially

The shoes may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially to allow them to conform to your foot shape.
