FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

No, the Handball Spezial is designed for casual lifestyle wear and does not provide the structural support or impact absorption needed for running.

How should I clean the gum sole?

A soft brush and a mixture of mild soap and water can be used to scrub the gum sole, followed by a quick wipe with a clean, damp cloth.

Is the leather water-resistant?

The leather is not waterproof. It is recommended to use a protective leather spray treatment to help repel light moisture.

Do these shoes fit true to size?

Generally, adidas Handball Spezial trainers fit true to size, though personal preference for width may vary.

Can I replace the insoles?

The insoles are designed for the specific interior fit of the shoe, but they can be removed if you require custom orthotics.

Does the animal pattern wear off easily?

The pattern is integrated into the material finish and is durable under normal daily usage conditions.

Troubleshooting

Sole grip feels slippery on polished surfaces

Clean the gum sole with a damp cloth to remove dust buildup, which often causes reduced friction on smooth indoor floors.

Creasing appears on the leather upper

Use a shoe tree when not wearing the trainers to help maintain the structure and minimize deep creases over time.

General dirt on the animal pattern surface

Use a dedicated leather cleaner or a soft, slightly damp cloth to gently spot-clean the area. Never use harsh chemical solvents.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. For sizing, ensure you consult the UK adult size chart, as this specific model (Size 7.5 UK) follows standard adidas fit guidelines. To maintain the leather and the animal pattern, wipe the surface with a soft, dry cloth to remove loose dirt after each use. Avoid machine washing or submersing the leather in water, as this can damage the texture and bond. If the shoes get wet, air-dry them at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the leather from cracking or warping.
