FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for playing sports?

The Handball Spezial LT trainers are designed with a comfort-focused sole for everyday wear and a stylish aesthetic. While they have athletic roots, they are best suited for casual use and are not engineered for intense athletic performance or high-impact sports.

How should I clean the suede material?

Regularly brush the suede with a suede brush to remove dust. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow the product's instructions. Applying a suede protector spray is recommended for added defense against dirt and moisture.

What is the sole height?

The sole height is approximately 2 cm, with the highest point at the heel measuring around 3 cm.

What materials are these trainers made of?

The trainers are primarily made of suede with smooth leather inserts at the collar and heel. They feature a textile lining and a rubber sole.

Do these come in other colors?

The specific model described is black with white and gold accents. However, the Handball Spezial series often features various colorways and material combinations across different releases.

How do I ensure a proper fit?

The trainers feature a classic lace-up closure, allowing you to adjust the fit for comfort and security. Ensure your heel is seated firmly and there is adequate space in the toe box without being too loose.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained.

Gently brush the affected area with a suede brush. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow the product's instructions. Consider applying a protective spray to prevent future stains.

Laces feel too tight or loose.

Adjust the lacing through the eyelets to achieve a comfortable and secure fit. Ensure the knot is tied securely to prevent loosening during wear.

Discomfort after prolonged wear.

Ensure you have the correct size. If the discomfort persists, consider wearing them for shorter periods initially to allow your feet to adjust, or explore adding supportive insoles.
