FAQs

Are the Handball Spezial trainers suitable for playing handball?

While inspired by handball shoes, these trainers are primarily designed for casual, everyday wear and not for playing professional or high-impact sports. They lack the specialized support and cushioning required for intense athletic activity.

How do I know if I have the right size?

The trainers should feel snug but not painfully tight. There should be a small amount of space at the toe, and your heel should not lift excessively when walking. Trying them on towards the end of the day, when feet are typically slightly larger, can provide a more accurate fit.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoe.

How do I clean the gum sole?

Use a damp cloth to wipe the gum sole clean. For tougher marks, a non-abrasive rubber cleaner or even a pencil eraser can be carefully used.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is primarily constructed from leather, providing durability and a classic aesthetic.

Do these trainers come in other colors?

The adidas Originals Handball Spezial series is available in various colorways. Please check product listings for available options.

What is the warranty period for these trainers?

Warranty information is typically provided by the retailer at the time of purchase. Please refer to your sales receipt or the retailer's website for specific warranty details.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or stiff.

Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the leather to break in and mold to your feet. You can also use thicker socks during the break-in period.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.

Ensure the gum sole is clean. New shoes might have a slicker feel initially; light wear on varied surfaces can help improve grip.

Leather shows scuffs or marks.

For minor scuffs, try a leather conditioner or cleaner. For more significant marks, consult a professional shoe repair service.

Laces fray or break.

Replace laces with a similar length and material. Standard shoelaces can be purchased from most footwear retailers.

Compatibility: The Handball Spezial trainers are designed for general adult wear and are compatible with a wide range of casual apparel. They are not intended for specialized athletic performance.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Suede/Nubuck (if applicable to specific panels): Use a specialized suede brush to clean these areas.

  4. Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
  5. Protection: Consider using a leather protectant spray to guard against water and stains.
