Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

No, the Handball Spezial is a lifestyle trainer designed for casual, everyday use and does not provide the technical cushioning required for running.

How do I clean the rubber outsole?

You can clean the rubber sole with a damp cloth and mild soap. A soft toothbrush can help reach texture patterns on the edge of the sole.

Does the leather or suede require a protective spray?

Using a water-repellent spray designed for leather or suede can help protect the material from light rain and stains.

Are these trainers true to size?

Generally, the Handball Spezial fits true to size, but the slim profile may feel narrow for those with wider feet.

Can I remove the insoles?

The insoles are generally removable, allowing you to replace them with custom orthotics if necessary.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty keeping a secure fit

Ensure the laces are threaded through all eyelets and consider using a 'heel lock' lacing technique.

Surface marks on suede

Use a specialized suede eraser or a soft-bristled brush to gently lift dirt without damaging the material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Handball Spezial trainers maintain their shape and aesthetic, always untie the laces before removing the shoes to prevent heel collapse. If you own the suede variant, keep a suede brush handy to remove surface dirt and maintain the nap of the material. For leather versions, wipe down with a slightly damp cloth after use. Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally; do not place them directly on a radiator or use a heater, as this can cause the leather or suede to crack or warp.
