FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard sizing for adult footwear. If you have wider feet, you may prefer a half-size up.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can permanently damage the suede material and alter the shoe's shape. Always clean them by hand.

What is the primary material used?

The upper is constructed from premium suede, while the sole is typically composed of durable rubber.

Are they suitable for athletic performance?

While based on a handball shoe design, they are now marketed as lifestyle trainers and lack the modern shock absorption required for high-impact sports.

How do I keep the white/cream parts clean?

Use a damp, soft cloth with a mild soap solution specifically formulated for footwear, taking care not to let the soap touch the blue suede parts.

Troubleshooting

Surface dirt on the suede

Use a dry soft-bristled brush or a dedicated suede eraser to gently lift the dirt without ruining the nap.

Laces becoming undone frequently

Double knot the laces or replace them with slightly textured flat laces to increase friction.

Water spots on the suede

Allow the shoe to dry naturally at room temperature, then use a suede brush to restore the texture once fully dry.

Pros and Cons

  • Reliable lace closure offers a secure and adjustable fit
  • Iconic branding maintains the authentic adidas Originals aesthetic

Cons

  • Suede material is sensitive to water and mud

  • Limited arch support compared to modern technical performance footwear

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Handball Spezial trainers stay in top condition, follow these care steps:

  1. Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to gently remove surface dirt after each use.
  2. Protection: Apply a suede-specific water and stain repellent spray before the first wear to provide a protective barrier against the elements.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the blue pigment from fading.
  4. Compatibility: These trainers pair best with denim, chinos, or casual joggers, making them a highly flexible footwear choice for most everyday ensembles.
