FAQs

What is the primary material of the Handball Spezial?

The primary material is a rich oiled brown leather for the upper.

How should I clean these leather shoes?

Use a soft brush for dry dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap for stains. Always air dry and consider using a leather conditioner.

Are these suitable for sports activities?

These shoes are designed for casual wear and light daily activities. They may not offer sufficient support or cushioning for intense sports.

What does 'Oiled Leather' mean for care?

Oiled leather is treated to be more water-resistant and flexible. It requires periodic conditioning to maintain its properties and prevent drying.

How do the 'Core White' 3-Stripes differ from the main upper color?

The 'Core White' 3-Stripes are a contrasting color applied to the iconic adidas branding on the sidewalls, providing a visual highlight against the brown leather upper.

What is the outsole made of?

The outsole is made of curvilinear rubber, designed to provide lightweight grip.

Can these shoes be worn by women?

While this specific listing is for men's sizing (UK 11), the Handball Spezial series is a unisex style and is available in various sizes.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears dry or stiff

Apply a suitable leather conditioner to restore moisture and suppleness. Ensure regular conditioning.

Soles feel slippery on wet surfaces

While the rubber outsole provides grip, extreme wet conditions can reduce traction. Exercise caution on very wet or slick surfaces. Clean the soles regularly to remove debris that might affect grip.

Laces fraying or breaking

Replace worn laces with new ones of similar material and length. Consider wax-coated laces for durability.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

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

Compatibility: These shoes are designed for adult casual wear and are compatible with a wide range of casual attire. They are suitable for most adult foot sizes within the specified UK sizing.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution. Avoid soaking the shoes.
  2. Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner periodically to keep the oiled leather supple and prevent it from drying out.
  3. Drying: Air dry the shoes naturally. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the leather.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box, to protect them from dust and moisture.
