adidas Originals Handball Spezial Bold - Trainers - UK 6.5

The Handball Spezial Bold trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle. While they offer good cushioning and traction for everyday activities, they are not intended for high-impact sports or professional athletic training.

Wear the trainers for short periods initially, gradually increasing the duration as the leather softens and molds to your foot shape. Wearing them with the socks you intend to use most often can help expedite this process.

It is not recommended to machine wash the trainers. The leather upper and chunky sole components may be damaged by the washing machine. Spot clean using the care instructions provided.

The primary difference is the sole. The 'Bold' version features a significantly thicker, 'chunky' midsole for increased cushioning and a more contemporary, visually impactful aesthetic compared to the original, slimmer Handball Spezial.

Use a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. For stubborn marks, a magic eraser or a soft-bristled brush can be used gently. Ensure to wipe away any residue with a clean damp cloth.

For comfort and fit, mid-weight socks are generally recommended. Consider the thickness based on your personal preference and how the shoe fits. For a snugger feel, thinner socks might be preferred; for a looser fit, slightly thicker socks could work.

Try wearing them with different sock thicknesses. If the issue persists after a break-in period, consider if an alternative size would be more suitable.

Use a specialized leather cleaner and a soft cloth to gently buff out minor scuffs. For deeper marks, professional cleaning might be necessary.

Clean the gum rubber outsole thoroughly with a damp cloth or soft brush to remove any embedded dirt or debris that may be affecting grip.

Remove the laces and hand wash them with mild soap and water. For machine washing, place them in a mesh laundry bag.
