Product Information

Full details

These women's Handball Spezial Bold trainers are designed for the adult female looking for a stylish and comfortable everyday sneaker with a nod to classic terrace fashion. The key benefit is the combination of a premium leather upper with a modern, chunky midsole for enhanced cushioning and a bold aesthetic. A potential caveat to consider is that the chunky sole, while providing comfort, may alter the classic Handball Spezial silhouette for purists. Key features include a smooth leather upper, textile and synthetic sockliner for a snug fit, a cushioned chunky midsole, and a durable gum rubber outsole for reliable traction, all finished with signature adidas branding.

FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for sports?

These trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and fashion. While they offer good traction for everyday activities, they are not specialized athletic shoes and may not provide the specific support or performance needed for rigorous sports.

How do I choose the right size?

The sizing is based on UK adult women's footwear. It is recommended to refer to the adidas sizing chart and consider trying them on if possible. For this specific model, UK size 6 is provided.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

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

What is the main difference between this and the original Handball Spezial?

The main difference is the 'Bold' version features a significantly chunkier midsole, providing more cushioning and a contemporary, oversized aesthetic compared to the slimmer, classic Handball Spezial silhouette.

How do I maintain the color of the black leather?

Regular cleaning with a damp cloth and occasional use of a black leather conditioner or shoe polish can help maintain the color and finish of the black leather upper.

What is the sockliner made of?

The sockliner is made of a combination of textile and synthetic materials, designed to provide a snug and comfortable fit.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on leather upper

Minor creasing is natural with leather. To minimize it, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use. Avoid excessive flexing.

Slight stiffness in new shoes

Leather can be stiff initially. Wear the shoes for short periods to break them in gradually. Conditioning the leather can also help soften it.

Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces

While the gum rubber outsole provides good grip, extreme wet conditions can reduce traction. Exercise caution and ensure the outsole is clean from debris.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Stylish design that blends classic and modern aesthetics.
  • Comfortable cushioning due to the chunky midsole.
  • Durable leather upper for extended use.
  • Good traction provided by the gum rubber outsole.
  • Versatile for everyday wear and casual styling.

Cons

  • The bold, chunky sole might not appeal to those preferring the original, slimmer silhouette.
  • Leather may require specific care to maintain its appearance.
  • May offer less breathability compared to trainers with mesh uppers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers require no special setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. They are designed for general casual wear and are compatible with most casual outfits. To care for your Handball Spezial Bold trainers:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and marks. For stubborn stains, a specialized leather cleaner can be used, followed by a conditioning product to maintain the leather's suppleness.
  2. Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Use a damp cloth or a soft brush to clean the midsole and gum rubber outsole. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the material.
  3. Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat or sunlight, as this can damage the leather and adhesives.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box, to protect them from dust and moisture.
