Product Information

Full details

The adidas Originals Handball Spezial is a versatile lifestyle trainer designed for adult men who value a mix of vintage aesthetics and everyday comfort. Featuring a premium suede upper and a signature gum rubber sole, these trainers provide reliable traction and a timeless look perfect for casual wear. While highly stylish, the suede material requires consistent care to maintain its texture and prevent water damage, making them less ideal for harsh weather conditions.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

No, the Handball Spezial is designed as a casual lifestyle sneaker and lacks the cushioning required for long-distance running.

How do I protect the suede from stains?

We recommend using a reputable suede-specific water and stain repellent spray before the first wear.

Does the size fit true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing; however, individual foot width may require a slight adjustment.

Can these be washed in a machine?

No, machine washing will permanently damage the suede material and compromise the shoe's structure.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is constructed from premium suede, complemented by leather details on the heel tab and 3-Stripes.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or matted

Use a soft suede brush to gently lift the fibers in a consistent direction.

Visible scuff marks on the gum sole

Use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution to wipe the rubber perimeter.

Minor water stains on the upper

Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from heat sources and brush lightly once dry.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable gum rubber outsole provides superior grip
  • High-quality suede construction offers a premium feel
  • Versatile design transitions easily between casual outfits
  • Classic vintage styling that remains relevant

Cons

  • Suede material is sensitive to moisture and mud
  • Light-colored details may show dirt quickly
  • Limited arch support compared to dedicated performance shoes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these trainers feature a suede exterior, avoid exposing them to heavy rain or spills. To maintain their appearance, use a suede-specific brush to gently remove surface dust after each wear. For deeper cleaning, utilize a professional suede eraser to lift spots. Store them in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading of the blue pigment. When choosing your size, ensure a standard fit as the suede tends to conform slightly to your foot shape over time.
