FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard Adidas sizing. We recommend ordering your usual sneaker size.

Can I wear these for actual handball?

While based on a handball shoe, these are lifestyle versions and lack the specialized support required for professional court sports.

How do I clean the white accents?

Use a damp cloth with a tiny amount of mild detergent, taking care not to soak the green areas.

Are these sneakers suitable for wide feet?

The Handball Spezial has a slim, tapered silhouette which may feel snug for those with very wide feet.

Does the shoe come with extra laces?

The shoes ship with their original factory-laced configuration.

Troubleshooting

Outer material shows light staining

Gently blot with a dry cloth or use a dedicated suede cleaner if the material is suede.

Creasing at the toe box

This is natural for leather-based sneakers; use shoe trees when not in use to help maintain shape.

Pros and Cons

  • Versatile colorway pairs well with denim and casual wear

  • Not optimized for high-performance athletic sports

Setup, Compatibility & Care

There is no complex setup required for these trainers; simply ensure you have selected your correct UK size. To maintain the appearance of your Mineral Green Handball Spezials, avoid machine washing. Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the upper. If the uppers are made of suede, use a specialized suede eraser or brush to restore the nap. For the rubber sole, a damp cloth with mild soap can effectively remove scuffs and debris. Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent color fading and leather degradation.
