FAQs

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper of these Adidas Handball Spezial Trainers is primarily made of leather.

Are these shoes suitable for playing handball?

While inspired by handball shoes, they are now considered classic lifestyle trainers and are best suited for casual wear rather than competitive athletic performance.

How do I clean the gum rubber outsole?

The gum rubber outsole can be cleaned with mild soap and water using a damp cloth or brush.

What does 'COLD CEMENT construction' mean?

Cold cement construction refers to the method used to attach the sole to the upper, typically involving adhesives applied at lower temperatures, which is common for many casual shoes.

Can I wear these with socks?

What is the fit like?

They have a regular fit. However, for optimal comfort, it is recommended to try them on or consult sizing guides, as individual fit preferences can vary.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight or loose

Adjust the lacing to find a more comfortable and secure fit. If the size is fundamentally incorrect, consider exchanging for a different size.

Leather upper appears scuffed or dirty

Gently clean with a damp cloth. For deeper scuffs on leather, consider using a leather conditioner or polish specifically designed for footwear.

Gum sole shows wear

Regular cleaning will help maintain the sole's appearance. For significant wear, professional shoe repair services may be an option, though this is less common for casual trainers.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no specific setup. Simply lace them up for a secure fit.

Compatibility: The Adidas Handball Spezial Trainers are designed as lifestyle footwear, compatible with a wide range of casual attire for adult men. They are not intended for performance in specialized sports beyond their original handball inspiration.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and grime from the leather upper. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Suede Areas: If applicable to specific versions, use a suede brush to maintain texture and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, a suede cleaner may be used sparingly.
  • Lining: The synthetic lining can be wiped clean with a slightly damp cloth.
  • Outsole: Clean the rubber outsole with mild soap and water.
  • Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
