FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for handball?
While based on a 1979 handball shoe, this specific variant features a loafer-style upper and is intended for lifestyle and streetwear use, not athletic performance.
What material are they made of?
The upper is crafted from leather, providing a durable and stylish finish.
Do they fit true to size?
Generally, the Handball Spezial series fits true to standard UK sizing, though leather can break in and feel more comfortable over time.
How do I clean the white portions of the sole?
Use a specialized rubber cleaner or a soft-bristled brush with mild soap and water to scrub the outsole edges.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, if the factory insoles are removable, you can replace them with your preferred orthopedic or comfort insoles.
Troubleshooting
Leather looks dull
Apply a small amount of leather conditioner or cream to restore the original sheen.
Creasing on the moc-toe
Use shoe trees when not in use to help the leather maintain its shape and minimize deep creases.
Outsole loses traction
Clean the rubber sole with a brush and soapy water to remove accumulated debris or dust.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Handball Spezial shoes remain in top condition, avoid getting them soaking wet. If the leather gets dirty, wipe it down with a soft, damp cloth and let it air dry away from direct heat sources. Use a leather conditioner periodically to prevent the material from cracking. These shoes are compatible with most casual trousers, chinos, and denim, making them a highly versatile addition to an adult wardrobe. Ensure you confirm your UK foot size before purchase, as the leather may stretch slightly over time.
