FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, these are lifestyle trainers designed for casual wear and are not engineered for athletic running or high-impact sports.
How should I clean the leather upper?
Use a specialized leather cleaner and a soft microfiber cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Do these shoes run true to size?
The Handball Spezial generally follows standard sizing; however, since they are low-profile, some users prefer a half-size up for a roomier fit.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the internal sockliner can typically be removed to accommodate custom orthotics.
What is the primary material used?
This specific variant is constructed using high-quality leather.
How can I prevent the leather from drying out?
Apply a leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and prevent cracking.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on the toe box
Use a shoe tree when not wearing the trainers to help maintain the leather structure.
Slipping on wet surfaces
Ensure the tread is clean and free of embedded pebbles or debris to maintain optimal grip.
Laces coming undone
Double-knot the laces or switch to flat, textured cotton laces for better friction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your trainers last, it is essential to clean them regularly. Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt from the textured outsole and a damp cloth for the leather upper. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can damage the leather and the adhesives used in the outsole. For optimal fit, ensure the laces are adjusted to your foot width; the low-profile tongue should sit flat against your instep. If you require additional arch support, consider removing the factory sockliner and replacing it with a custom orthopedic insert.
