adidas Handball Spezial - Black - Grey - 8.5

Yes, the adidas Handball Spezial typically fits true to standard adult sizing. If you have particularly wide feet, you may prefer a half-size larger.

These are lifestyle trainers based on an indoor sports shoe. While durable, they lack the high-impact cushioning required for long-distance running.

We recommend applying a leather protector spray suitable for smooth leather to help repel water and prevent stains.

Most models feature a standard insole that can be removed if you need to insert custom orthotics.

The leather upper provides some protection, but they are not waterproof. We recommend avoiding heavy rain to preserve the leather quality.

A gentle scrub with a mild soap solution and a toothbrush usually works well to lift dirt from the rubber outsoles.

Leather shoes often require a 'break-in' period. Try wearing them for short periods around the house to let the leather soften and stretch to your foot shape.

Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dried mud or debris from the grip patterns to restore traction.

Creasing is a natural characteristic of leather footwear. Using a shoe tree when not in use can help maintain the shape and minimize deep creases.
