FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The Handball Spezial has a standard fit. If you have wider feet, you may find the silhouette fits somewhat snugly due to its classic slim profile.

Can I use these for playing handball?

While originally designed for the court, these are currently marketed as lifestyle trainers. For professional handball, consider modern performance-specific footwear.

Are these trainers waterproof?

These trainers are not waterproof. It is recommended to avoid heavy rain or puddles to prevent material damage.

How do I find my size?

The trainers use standard UK sizing. Refer to your previous adidas footwear to ensure a consistent size selection.

Are they machine washable?

No, machine washing can damage the adhesive and the shape of the trainers. Manual cleaning is the recommended method.

Do the laces come in different lengths?

The provided laces are standard length for the shoe. If you require a different style, standard flat or round laces can be replaced as needed.

Troubleshooting

Creasing in the toe box

Use shoe trees when not in use to help the shoe retain its shape and minimize deep creases.

Exterior scuffs or dirt

Gently wipe the affected area with a damp microfiber cloth and a mild soap solution, then air dry away from heat sources.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Handball Spezial trainers maintain their shape and appearance, it is recommended to store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. When cleaning, avoid machine washing; instead, use a soft cloth or specialized leather/synthetic cleaner based on the material finish. For the best fit, ensure you select your standard UK size, as the series typically follows industry-standard sizing. To preserve the finish, avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes on the outer shell.
