FAQs

Are these shoes water-resistant?

No, the suede upper is naturally porous. We strongly recommend applying a suede-safe water repellent spray to protect against light moisture.

Do the Spezial trainers fit true to size?

Yes, they generally fit true to your standard size, but they may feel snug initially due to the high-quality padding.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

Do not machine wash your trainers as this will damage the suede material and compromise the structural integrity of the shoe.

What is the best way to clean the gum sole?

Use a soft brush and a mixture of mild soap and water to scrub the gum sole, then wipe clean with a dry cloth.

Are these suitable for playing handball?

While named after the sport, modern iterations are designed as lifestyle sneakers; we recommend dedicated athletic footwear for competitive indoor sports.

Can I replace the insoles?

The insoles can often be removed or replaced with custom orthotics, though the shoe is designed to provide optimal comfort with the included insoles.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or flat

Use a soft suede brush to gently rub the material in a circular motion to lift the nap and restore its original texture.

Visible water spots

Gently dab the affected area with a slightly damp cloth, allow it to dry naturally away from heat sources, then brush the suede.

Laces becoming loose

Ensure laces are threaded correctly through the eyelets and consider a double knot if the flat laces slip during long walks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Handball Spezial trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:

  1. Breaking In: These shoes generally fit true to size. Wear them for short durations indoors initially to allow the suede and sole to adjust to your foot shape.
  2. Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt after each wear. For stubborn stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner or a damp cloth with mild soap, avoiding excessive water saturation.
  3. Protection: Apply a suede-specific water and stain repellent spray before first use to create a protective barrier against the elements.
  4. Storage: Keep your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading and keep the suede soft.
  5. Compatibility: These trainers are designed for casual, adult use and are not recommended for court sports like professional handball or high-impact training.
