Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Handball Spezial trainers stay in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals that could strip the colour.
- Storage: Keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather drying or fading.
- Protection: Consider using a water and stain repellent spray suitable for leather footwear to protect against unexpected spills or rain.
- Lacing: Ensure laces are kept clean; if they become frayed, replace them with standard flat laces to maintain the classic look.
- Fit: The shoes follow standard UK adult sizing. Use the lacing system to adjust tension according to your preferred level of tightness.
