Product Information

Full details

The adidas Originals Handball Spezial Trainers are designed for adult men who appreciate a fusion of retro athletic heritage and modern casual style. Originally engineered for elite handball competition in 1979, these shoes offer exceptional comfort through an OrthoLite sock liner and a reliable grip from the gum rubber outsole, making them ideal for everyday wear. While they provide timeless aesthetic appeal with their iconic suede finish, potential owners should note that the suede material requires diligent care to maintain its appearance in inclement weather.

FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the Handball Spezial generally fits true to standard adult UK sizing.

Can these be washed in a machine?

No, machine washing can damage the suede and the structural integrity of the shoe; manual cleaning is recommended.

Is the material waterproof?

No, the suede upper is not waterproof and should be treated with a suede-specific protective spray if worn in light moisture.

Are these suitable for gym use?

While they feature a grippy outsole, they are designed as lifestyle sneakers rather than modern technical training equipment.

What is the primary material used?

The upper is constructed from premium suede, complemented by a durable gum rubber outsole.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt or mud on suede surface

Allow the dirt to dry completely before gently brushing it off with a soft-bristled suede brush.

Scuff marks on the gum rubber outsole

Use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap to gently wipe the rubber sides clean.

Loss of internal freshness

Remove the OrthoLite sock liner, let it air out, or replace it with a fresh athletic insole if necessary.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Classic, versatile vintage aesthetic
  • Highly comfortable OrthoLite cushioning
  • Durable gum rubber outsole for grip
  • Premium suede material construction

Cons

  • Suede requires careful cleaning and maintenance
  • Not intended for heavy-duty sports performance
  • Limited water resistance due to suede exterior

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your trainers in optimal condition, ensure they are stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the suede pigment. Because these are made from suede, avoid wearing them in heavy rain or mud. If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry naturally away from artificial heat sources like radiators, as this can warp the material. For regular upkeep, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dust and dirt from the suede nap. For deeper stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and a rubber eraser tool to gently lift debris.
