FAQs
How do I change the tongue on the shoes?
The tongue features a Velcro backing. Simply detach the currently attached tongue by gently pulling it away from the shoe, then align the new tongue and press firmly onto the Velcro on the shoe's interior.
What are the dual lacing options for?
The dual lacing options allow you to choose between two different colored lace sets, providing another way to customize the appearance of your trainers to match your style or outfit.
Can I wear these trainers for playing handball?
While inspired by handball shoes, these are designed primarily as lifestyle trainers for everyday wear. They offer good grip and stability for casual activities but may not provide the specialized support and cushioning required for intense athletic play.
How should I clean the suede parts?
Use a soft suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, try a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner, always testing on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid getting the suede wet.
What is the main difference between the Spezial and Spezial LT models?
The 'LT' in Spezial LT often denotes lighter or updated variations. For this model, key distinguishing features are the interchangeable tongue and dual lacing options, offering enhanced customization.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, these trainers are not waterproof. The leather and suede materials are susceptible to water damage, and care should be taken in wet conditions.
What size is 'UK 11' in other systems?
UK size 11 generally corresponds to approximately a US men's size 11.5-12 or a European size 45-46, though conversions can vary slightly between brands.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel too long or short.
Adjust the lacing pattern or use the alternative set of laces provided to achieve your desired fit and look.
Suede appears matted or dirty.
Use a dry suede brush to restore the nap of the suede. For stains, a suede eraser can be effective.
Leather shows scuffs or minor marks.
Gently wipe the affected area with a slightly damp cloth. For deeper scuffs, a leather conditioner or cleaner designed for colored leather may be used cautiously.
Tongue is not staying in place.
Ensure the Velcro on the tongue and the shoe are clean and properly aligned before pressing firmly to secure it.
