FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

The Handball Spezial generally runs true to standard UK sizing for adults.

Can I use these for actual handball sports?

While they pay homage to the original handball design, they lack the technical support and cushioning required for modern competitive indoor sports.

How do I clean the pink leather?

Use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap and wipe gently. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.

Is the material real leather?

Yes, these trainers are constructed with high-quality leather.

Are these suitable for wet weather?

They are not waterproof, so it is recommended to avoid wearing them in heavy rain to prevent water damage to the leather.

What is the primary aesthetic of these trainers?

They feature a classic 1970s heritage silhouette with a modern, vibrant color palette.

Troubleshooting

Scuff marks on the leather surface

Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft eraser to gently buff out surface scuffs.

Difficulty maintaining the white stripes

Use a white sneaker whitening solution or a damp cloth with a mild detergent specifically on the stripes.

Shoes feeling stiff after initial wear

The leather upper will naturally soften over time with consistent use; ensure you are wearing the correct size for your foot.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile design that pairs easily with casual or sporty outfits
  • High-quality leather construction ensures long-term durability
  • Lightweight profile ideal for all-day wear
  • Distinctive colorway stands out in any wardrobe

Cons

  • Not intended for high-intensity indoor athletic competition
  • Pink colorway may require more frequent cleaning to maintain brightness
  • Leather material is not waterproof and should be kept away from heavy rain

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Handball Spezial trainers maintain their look, clean the leather upper regularly with a soft, dry brush to remove loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild soap, ensuring you avoid over-wetting the material. Because these are made from leather, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration or premature material cracking. They are highly compatible with jeans, joggers, and casual dresses, serving as a versatile staple in a female adult wardrobe.
