FAQs

Are these trainers true to size?

The Adidas Handball Spezial generally fits true to size. If you have wider feet, you may find the low-profile fit snug, and could consider a half-size increase.

Can I use these for indoor handball games?

While originally designed for indoor sports, modern performance handball shoes provide more specialized support; these are best suited for lifestyle and casual wear.

How do I maintain the color of the brown upper?

Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture and direct sunlight. If the material is suede, use a suede-specific brush to keep the fibers lifted and clean.

Are these shoes water-resistant?

No, they are not designed to be water-resistant. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain to prevent staining or material degradation.

What is the primary material?

The Handball Spezial uses a combination of materials consistent with its classic design, focusing on a balance of durability and comfort for daily use.

How should I lace these for the best fit?

Standard parallel lacing works well for this silhouette to maintain a clean look, or you can use a runner's loop if you need a more secure heel fit.

Troubleshooting

Creasing in the toe box area

Use shoe trees when not wearing the trainers to help maintain the structure and minimize deep creasing.

Dirty white detailing

Gently clean the white accents with a dampened microfiber cloth and a mild soap solution specifically formulated for footwear.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Timeless design that works well with casual or smart-casual outfits
  • Lightweight construction perfect for all-day comfort
  • High-quality materials ensure reliable durability
  • Classic low-profile look avoids a bulky aesthetic

Cons

  • Not intended for high-intensity indoor sports training

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your Adidas Handball Spezial trainers in optimal condition, ensure they are stored in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading. For cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust from the exterior. If you encounter minor stains, use a dedicated sneaker cleaning solution; avoid submerging them fully in water or using harsh detergents. Pair these with slim or straight-leg trousers to best show off the low-profile silhouette.
