FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for sports?

No, the Handball Spezial Loafer is designed for casual wear and light activity, not for high-impact sports. The gum sole offers grip but lacks the specialized support of athletic footwear.

How do I clean the gold Trefoil detail?

The metallic gold Trefoil can typically be wiped gently with a dry or slightly damp soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or materials that could scratch the metallic finish.

What is the main difference between this and a typical Handball Spezial?

The main difference is the loafer silhouette and the absence of traditional lacing, offering a more relaxed and slip-on style compared to the classic Handball Spezial sneaker.

Can I wear these in the rain?

It is not recommended to wear suede shoes in heavy rain, as water can stain and damage the material. If they get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from heat.

What kind of socks should I wear with these?

You can wear them with no-show socks for a clean look, thin casual socks, or even bare feet depending on personal preference and comfort.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is made of suede.

What is the sole made of?

The sole is made of gum rubber, providing comfort and grip.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or dirty

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stains, try a suede eraser and follow up with a protector spray.

Shoes feel slightly tight

Suede can stretch slightly with wear. Wear them with thin socks initially. If persistent, consider using shoe trees to help stretch them gently.

Gum sole is dirty

Wipe the gum sole with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by a clean damp cloth to rinse.

Care Instructions:
