FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
The Handball Spezial generally fits true to size for most adults, though those with wider feet may prefer to verify fit with socks they intend to wear.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No, it is highly recommended to avoid machine washing as it can damage the leather components and the internal structure of the shoe.
What is the primary material used?
This model features a textile upper with leather mudguards and 3-Stripes detailing.
Are these suitable for indoor handball?
While originally inspired by handball, these are refined as a casual lifestyle trainer; for high-intensity competitive sports, specialized court footwear is recommended.
How do I best protect the silver leather accents?
Using a mild leather conditioner specifically formulated for colored leather can help prevent the silver finish from dulling over time.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on the leather 3-Stripes
Use wooden shoe trees when not in use to help the shoe maintain its shape and smooth out minor creases.
Difficulty cleaning the blue textile upper
Use a soft-bristled brush with a dedicated fabric cleaner; avoid using harsh chemicals or bleach which may discolor the blue dye.
Outsole losing traction
Clean the ripple grooves on the bottom of the sole with a stiff brush to remove pebbles or debris that can obstruct grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your adidas Handball Spezial shoes, it is important to follow proper care protocols. Keep the leather surfaces clean by wiping them with a soft, dry cloth; for the textile portions, a gentle brush can remove surface dust. Avoid submerging the shoes in water to preserve the integrity of the leather components and adhesive bonds. If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent material warping or cracking. Ensure the laces are adjusted to your preferred tension using the metal eyelets to maintain a secure lock on your midfoot.
