Handball Spezial Bold Trainers - Black - White - UK 8

The Handball Spezial Bold trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and lifestyle. While they offer cushioning, they do not provide the specialized support and features required for running or intense athletic activities.

Refer to the adidas sizing chart for accurate measurements. These trainers are designed with a snug fit, so consider your personal preference for tightness when choosing your size. The provided size is UK 8.

No, machine washing is not recommended. The leather upper and other materials can be damaged by the washing machine cycle. Hand washing and air drying are the preferred methods for cleaning.

The upper of these trainers is made from smooth leather.

The 'Bold' designation refers to the significantly chunkier midsole, which provides enhanced cushioning and a more prominent, contemporary aesthetic compared to the original, slimmer Handball Spezial models.

Regularly wipe the leather with a damp cloth. For deeper cleaning or conditioning, use products specifically designed for leather footwear. Protect them from excessive moisture and direct heat.

The gum rubber outsole is designed to provide good traction. However, like all rubber soles, performance can be affected by extremely wet or polished surfaces.

This is natural with leather. To minimize creasing, ensure the shoes fit correctly and avoid over-tightening laces. Using shoe trees when not in use can help maintain shape.

This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between the sole and the insole. Try drying the shoes thoroughly or placing a small piece of tissue paper inside the shoe to absorb moisture.

Gum rubber can sometimes oxidize or pick up dirt. Clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. If discoloration is significant, a specialized shoe cleaner for rubber soles might help, but test on an inconspicuous area first.
