Product Information

Full details

The adidas Originals Handball Spezial Trainers are designed for individuals seeking a timeless blend of heritage sports performance and contemporary street style. Originally engineered for elite handball athletes in 1979, these suede sneakers offer exceptional daily comfort through an OrthoLite sockliner and a stable, durable design. While these shoes are perfect for casual wear and light activity, they are primarily fashion-oriented rather than high-performance indoor court shoes by modern standards.

FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the Handball Spezial series generally fits true to standard UK sizing for adults.

Can I use these for playing indoor sports?

While they were originally designed for handball, they lack the advanced stability and impact protection of modern dedicated court shoes.

What is the best way to protect the suede?

Apply a water-repellent spray specifically designed for suede before the first use to help shield them from minor spills.

Can I remove the sockliner?

Yes, the OrthoLite sockliner is removable if you need to replace it with custom orthotics.

Are these shoes gender-specific?

The Handball Spezial is a unisex silhouette; this guide focuses on the female-specific sizing variant.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or dirty

Use a specialized suede brush to restore the nap and lift away fine dirt particles.

Shoes feel too tight across the midfoot

Loosen the lacing system starting from the bottom eyelets to allow for more volume and a customized fit.

Visible water spots on suede

Allow the shoes to dry completely away from direct heat sources, then use a suede brush to buff the affected area.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Classic, versatile aesthetic that pairs well with various outfits
  • Enhanced comfort thanks to the OrthoLite sockliner
  • Durable construction with high-quality suede and rubber materials
  • True-to-history design appeals to retro sneaker enthusiasts

Cons

  • Suede material requires specific cleaning and protection to maintain appearance
  • Limited lateral support compared to modern specialized sports footwear
  • Not intended for high-intensity athletic use on modern courts

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Handball Spezial trainers maintain their look, keep them away from heavy mud or water, as the suede material is sensitive to moisture. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt. For deeper stains, use a dedicated suede eraser or a light application of a suede-safe cleaning solution. Avoid using a washing machine, as the heat and water can damage the adhesives and the texture of the suede. If your laces become worn, they can be easily replaced with standard flat laces to maintain the classic aesthetic.
