FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

No, the Handball Spezial is a lifestyle trainer intended for leisure and casual wear, not for running or intensive exercise.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

It is strongly recommended not to put suede shoes in the washing machine, as water and heat can damage the material and the adhesive.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is constructed from high-quality suede.

Do these trainers run true to size?

They generally follow standard UK sizing conventions, though individual fit preferences may vary.

Is the rubber outsole durable?

Yes, the natural rubber outsole provides excellent durability and grip for everyday urban environments.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks worn or flattened

Use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently lift the fibers back to their original texture.

Difficulty maintaining a tight lace fit

Ensure the laces are threaded properly through the eyelets and consider double-knotting if they come undone frequently.

Light dirt spots on the suede

Gently rub the affected area with a suede eraser; avoid using harsh chemicals or soap and water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Handball Spezial trainers maintain their look, keep the following care instructions in mind:

  1. Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and dust. Avoid getting the suede overly wet.

  4. Protection: Consider applying a suede-specific water and stain repellent spray before initial wear to provide a protective barrier against the elements.
