FAQs

Are the adidas Handball Spezial suitable for athletic performance?

While inspired by handball shoes, the current iteration is primarily designed for casual lifestyle wear and street style. They offer good comfort and traction for everyday activities but are not intended for high-impact athletic training.

How do I clean the suede and nubuck uppers?

Use a soft suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner. Always test any cleaning product on a small, hidden area first. Avoid soaking the shoes.

What is the best way to maintain the gum rubber sole?

Clean the gum sole with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove dirt and debris. This will help maintain its grip and appearance. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Will these shoes stretch over time?

Yes, the suede and nubuck materials will naturally mold to your feet over time, providing a more personalized fit. Wearing them with comfortable socks can aid this process.

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, the suede and nubuck materials are not waterproof. It is recommended to treat them with a water and stain repellent spray for added protection and avoid wearing them in heavy rain.

What does 'Spezial' mean?

'Spezial' is German for 'special'. The Handball Spezial line is a classic collection from adidas Originals, reissuing iconic indoor sports shoes for lifestyle wear.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Wear them with thicker socks for a short period to gently stretch the material. You can also try using a shoe stretcher. Remember, suede and nubuck can soften and adapt over time.

Suede appears dull or dirty

Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner following the product's instructions. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.

Sole feels slippery

Ensure the gum rubber sole is clean. Over time, dirt can accumulate. A gentle clean with soap and water can help restore traction. If the sole is severely worn, replacement might be necessary.

Setup: These trainers are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure a comfortable fit by adjusting the lace-up closure.

Compatibility: The adidas Handball Spezial is designed for casual wear and pairs well with a wide range of casual apparel, including jeans, shorts, joggers, and casual dresses.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: For general cleaning, use a soft brush to remove loose dirt from the suede and nubuck. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and a damp cloth. Avoid machine washing.
  2. Protection: Apply a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede and nubuck to help protect against the elements. Reapply periodically.
  3. Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with paper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag or the original box, to maintain their shape and protect the materials.
