FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

The adidas Handball Spezial generally fits true to standard UK sizing, though the low-profile design may feel snug for those with wider feet.

Can I use these for actual handball?

While based on the classic handball shoe, this model is refined for lifestyle wear. Modern high-performance indoor sports shoes are recommended for competitive play.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Gently wipe with a soft, clean cloth dampened with water or use a professional leather-safe cleaner.

Is the sole non-marking?

The gum rubber construction is traditionally non-marking, making it suitable for most indoor floor surfaces.

Do these shoes require a break-in period?

Leather shoes often require a few wears to conform to your foot shape for maximum comfort.

Are these suitable for arch support?

They provide a flat, stable platform. If you require significant orthopedic arch support, you may wish to add a specialized insole.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on the toe box

This is a natural occurrence with leather trainers. Use a shoe tree when not wearing them to help maintain the shape.

Sole grip feels slippery on polished floors

Gum soles can occasionally pick up dust. Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth to restore traction.

Leather looks dull

Apply a small amount of leather conditioner designed for footwear to restore the natural shine and flexibility.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable leather upper material
  • Timeless, versatile design
  • Reliable traction from the gum outsole
  • Comfortable fit for all-day wear
  • Sturdy construction with a reinforced heel

Cons

  • Not intended for technical indoor handball play
  • Leather requires specific cleaning techniques
  • Limited arch support compared to modern athletic running shoes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

No complex setup is required for these trainers; simply ensure your UK size is correctly matched. To maintain the appearance of the leather material, avoid submerging them in water. Instead, use a soft, dry brush to remove surface dust. For tougher stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner or a slightly damp cloth, followed by a dry cloth to prevent moisture buildup. When not in use, store your trainers in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to prevent leather cracking or color fading.
