FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for sports?

While the 'Handball Spezial' has historical roots in sports, this modern iteration is best suited for casual wear and daily activities due to its suede upper and retro design. They are not recommended for high-performance athletic activities.

How do I choose the correct size?

adidas trainers generally run true to size. It is recommended to select your usual UK shoe size. If you are between sizes, consider trying the next half size up for optimal comfort, especially if you prefer wearing thicker socks.

Can I wear these trainers in the rain?

It is generally not recommended to wear suede trainers in heavy rain, as suede is susceptible to water damage and staining. If worn in light drizzle, ensure they have been treated with a water-repellent spray, and allow them to air dry properly afterwards.

What is ADIPRENE+ cushioning?

ADIPRENE+ is an adidas cushioning technology primarily located in the forefoot. It is engineered to maintain propulsion and efficiency, providing responsive cushioning and effective shock absorption, which contributes to a more comfortable stride.

What does the Torsion System do?

The Torsion System is a lightweight arch support technology that allows the forefoot and rearfoot to move independently. This promotes natural foot movement and provides enhanced stability and adaptability, particularly on uneven surfaces.

How often should I clean the suede?

The frequency of cleaning depends on how often you wear your trainers and the environmental conditions they are exposed to. For optimal appearance, a light brush after every few wears is beneficial. Deep cleaning should be performed as needed to address stains or significant dirt accumulation.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or matted

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently restore the nap and remove surface dirt. Brush in a single direction to achieve a uniform look.

Stains on suede

For minor marks, use a suede eraser designed for footwear. For liquid stains, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth, then use a specialized suede cleaner, carefully following the product's instructions. Do not rub vigorously.

Trainers feel tight initially

New suede trainers may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations around the house to allow the material to conform to the unique shape of your foot.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes be caused by the insole rubbing against the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, sprinkling a small amount of talcum powder or baking soda inside the shoe, and then reinserting the insole.

Setup: Simply lace up your new adidas Handball Spezial Trainers to your preferred tightness. No complex assembly or 'setup' is required; they are ready to wear right out of the box.

Compatibility: These trainers boast high versatility, complementing a wide array of casual and smart-casual attire. They integrate well with denim, tracksuits, shorts, and can even add a stylish touch to certain skirts or dresses, establishing them as a reliable staple for daily fashion.

Care: The suede material of your trainers demands specific attention to maintain its pristine appearance and texture.

  1. Water and Stain Protection: Before the first wear, and periodically thereafter, treat the suede with a high-quality water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede. This creates a protective barrier against moisture and spills.
  2. Regular Cleaning: For superficial dirt and dust, use a soft suede brush to gently brush away debris. Always brush in a single, consistent direction to maintain the nap of the suede. For more stubborn marks, utilize a dedicated suede cleaner and an eraser, carefully following the product's instructions.
  3. Drying After Exposure: If your trainers get wet, promptly stuff them with newspaper to absorb excess moisture. Allow them to air dry naturally in a well-ventilated area, away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, which can damage or discolour suede.
  4. Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their original shape and prevent creasing over time.
