FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for sports?

While inspired by handball, these trainers are best suited for casual wear and light activities due to their design and materials. For intense sports, specialized athletic footwear is recommended.

How should I clean the gum sole?

The gum sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the rubber.

Do these trainers come in other colors?

The adidas Originals Handball Spezial series is available in various colorways. This specific model features a black and bronze combination.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper of this trainer is made from leather.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Refer to the size guide and measure your foot. Since some users find them to run narrow, trying them on in person or ordering from a retailer with a good return policy is advisable.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the leather offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. It's best to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain. Applying a leather protector spray can improve water resistance.

Troubleshooting

Laces become untied frequently

Ensure laces are tied securely using a double knot. Consider replacing worn laces.

Leather appears dry or creased

Apply a leather conditioner regularly to keep the material supple and prevent excessive creasing. Use a shoe tree to maintain shape when not in use.

Slight discomfort or tightness

Wear the trainers with appropriate socks to allow for a brief break-in period. If the tightness persists, consider trying a different size or width if available.
