Product Information

Full details

The adidas Originals Handball Spezial is designed for the style-conscious adult seeking a blend of classic design and everyday comfort. Its primary benefit lies in its timeless aesthetic and durable leather construction, making it suitable for casual wear. A potential caveat is that the gum sole, while stylish, may offer less grip on highly polished surfaces compared to specialized athletic shoes.

FAQs

What is the primary material of the Handball Spezial?

The upper of the adidas Originals Handball Spezial is primarily made of leather.

Are these shoes suitable for playing handball?

While inspired by the handball shoe design, these are best suited for casual, everyday wear. For competitive handball, specialized athletic footwear is recommended.

How should I clean the brown leather and cream accents?

Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth for cleaning. Avoid harsh chemicals. For stubborn marks, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly.

What kind of socks are best with these shoes?

Most casual socks will work well. Consider the thickness based on the desired fit and break-in period.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

The leather offers some protection, but it's not fully waterproof. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain. Ensure they are properly dried if they get wet.

What does 'Spezial' mean?

'Spezial' is German for 'special'. In the context of adidas, it often refers to models that have a particular heritage or unique design aspects.

Where can I find other sizes or colours?

Other sizes and colour variations might be available under different product listings. Check for alternative listings using the 'Handball Spezial' model name.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable

Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the leather to break in and mold to your feet. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in phase if needed.

Gum sole scuffing or marking surfaces

This is typical for gum soles. While they provide good grip, they can sometimes leave marks on certain types of flooring. Regular cleaning can help minimize the appearance of scuffs.

Leather appears dry or dull

Apply a suitable leather conditioner or cream to nourish the leather and restore its natural sheen. Ensure the product is compatible with the shoe's colour.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Handball Spezial requires no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility: These low-top shoes are compatible with a wide range of casual attire, including jeans, shorts, and casual trousers. They are suitable for adult wear.

Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your Handball Spezial shoes:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to gently clean the leather and suede surfaces. Avoid harsh chemicals or soaking the shoes.
  2. Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the leather.
  3. Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to guard against water and stains, especially for the suede accents.
