adidas Originals Handball Spezial - Suede - Green - Brown - UK 6

It is generally not recommended to wear suede trainers in heavy rain or very wet conditions. Water can stain and potentially damage the suede material. If they do get wet, refer to the 'Suede Upper Care' section in the guide for proper drying instructions.

For routine cleaning, use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and dust. For deeper cleaning or stains, use a suede eraser for scuffs and a dedicated suede cleaner, following the product's instructions carefully. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.

adidas Originals trainers typically run true to size, but fit can vary slightly based on individual foot shape. We recommend consulting adidas's official size guide or trying them on if possible to ensure the best fit.

The outsole of these trainers is made from grippy gum rubber, which is designed to provide firm and reliable traction on various surfaces.

While the 'Handball Spezial' name suggests a connection to the sport, these trainers are now primarily designed and marketed as lifestyle sneakers. They offer comfort and style for casual wear but are not built for the demands of modern competitive sports. For athletic performance, specialized sports shoes are recommended.

To protect your suede trainers, apply a high-quality suede and nubuck protector spray before their first wear and periodically thereafter. This forms a protective barrier against water and stains, making them easier to clean and maintain.

Use a specialized suede brush to gently brush the nap of the material in one direction. This helps to lift and restore the texture of the suede, bringing back its vibrant look.

Wear the trainers for short periods around the house to allow the synthetic lining and suede upper to naturally break in and conform to your foot shape. Ensure you have selected the correct size; if discomfort persists, consider checking your sizing against adidas's guide.

For scuffs, use a suede eraser to gently rub the affected area. For minor stains, apply a small amount of specialized suede cleaner on a clean cloth and dab gently. Always test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.

Inspect the gum rubber outsole for embedded dirt or small stones. Clean the outsole thoroughly with a damp cloth and a soft brush to remove any buildup that might be affecting traction. Regular cleaning helps maintain optimal grip.

If the trainers got wet, gently blot excess water with a clean, dry cloth. Stuff the shoes with plain paper towels to absorb moisture and maintain shape. Allow them to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to restore the nap.
