Product Information

Full details

The adidas Handball Spezial is an ideal choice for adults seeking a versatile, retro-inspired trainer that blends 1970s aesthetics with modern everyday comfort. These unisex shoes are perfect for casual wear, providing a secure fit and durable traction through their classic leather construction and rubber outsoles; however, users should note that as a low-profile sneaker, they are better suited for daily lifestyle use rather than high-impact athletic performance.

FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing for adults, though the low-profile fit may feel different if you are used to bulky athletic shoes.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the leather material and the structure of the shoe; manual cleaning is recommended.

Are they suitable for rainy weather?

While the rubber outsole provides good traction, the leather upper is not waterproof. It is best to avoid heavy rain to protect the longevity of the leather.

Is the material real leather?

Yes, these trainers are constructed using leather for the upper, providing durability and a classic feel.

Are these unisex?

Yes, the Handball Spezial series is designed as a unisex product suitable for all adults.

Troubleshooting

Creasing in the leather upper

Use cedar shoe trees when not wearing to help the shoe maintain its shape and minimize deep creases.

Stiff laces

Laces can be replaced with standard cotton alternatives if you prefer a softer feel or different aesthetic.

Difficulty cleaning scuffs

Use a specialized leather eraser or a damp cloth with a mild leather cleaner; avoid harsh soaps.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Getting started with your Handball Spezial trainers is straightforward: ensure you choose the correct UK sizing for a snug but comfortable fit. To maintain the condition of the leather, avoid submerging them in water. Instead, use a soft, dry brush to remove surface dust, and apply a leather-appropriate cleaning solution or conditioner periodically to prevent the material from drying out. Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the colour and shape of the leather over time.
