FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for professional handball?

While inspired by handball shoes, these are designed more for casual wear and light athletic activities. For professional play, specialized performance footwear is recommended.

How do I determine my correct UK size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by adidas or your retailer. It's recommended to measure your foot length and compare it with the chart. For this specific model, trying them on if possible is ideal due to variations in fit.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather and construction of the shoe.

What is the main difference between this '75th Anniversary' model and standard Handball Spezial models?

The '75th Anniversary Pack' often includes unique design elements, color accents, or branding specific to the milestone, setting it apart from the standard releases.

Is the leather waterproof?

The leather is water-resistant to a degree, but not fully waterproof. For enhanced protection against heavy rain or wet conditions, a waterproofing spray specifically for leather is advised.

How long is the break-in period?

The break-in period can vary. Typically, a few hours of wear over a couple of days should be sufficient for the leather to mold to your foot.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and try wearing them with thinner socks. If the issue persists after a break-in period, consider using a shoe stretcher or consulting a professional.

Leather creasing excessively

This is natural with leather. Ensure you are using appropriate shoe trees when not in use to help maintain shape. Avoid over-tightening laces.

Soles appear worn

Check for any debris lodged in the treads. For significant wear, professional sole repair may be an option depending on the shoe's overall condition.

Discoloration from cleaning products

Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first. Use mild, leather-specific cleaners and follow instructions carefully.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These trainers require no setup. Simply remove them from the box and lace them up to your preferred tightness.

Compatibility:

These are footwear, compatible with standard socks. They are suitable for adult males and can be worn in a variety of casual and light athletic settings.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. For stubborn marks, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly.
  • Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Stuffing them with paper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
  • Protection: Consider using a water and stain repellent spray designed for leather to protect against the elements.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag to prevent dust accumulation and maintain shape.
