Yes, the Handball Spezial generally fits true to your standard adidas size. If you prefer a looser fit, some users opt for a half-size up.
While originally designed for handball in the 70s, modern versions like this are intended for lifestyle and casual use. Dedicated athletic footwear is recommended for competitive sports.
Wipe the surface with a soft, slightly damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a specialized leather cleaner approved for smooth leather.
The crest is designed for durability, but consistent friction against pant hems can cause minor wear over time. Ensure proper storage to preserve detailing.
The leather offers basic protection against light splashes, but they are not waterproof and should be avoided in heavy downpours.
This specific model features a high-quality leather upper, though other variations in the series may use suede.
Use shoe trees when not wearing the trainers to maintain their shape and minimize deep creases.
Use a soft brush with mild soap and water to scrub the rubber, then wipe clean with a dry cloth.
The laces are standard length and can be replaced with any high-quality flat athletic lace matching the width.
As these trainers are made primarily of leather, they do not require a 'break-in' period as lengthy as canvas shoes, though they will soften over the first few wears. To maintain the appearance, avoid wearing them in heavy rain, as excess moisture can damage the leather finish. Clean the exterior by wiping with a soft, damp cloth and store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading. For the laces, regular washing in cold water or replacing them can keep the trainers looking fresh long-term.
