FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for playing handball?

While inspired by handball shoes, the Handball Spezial LT is primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle purposes, not for competitive athletic performance.

How do I clean the suede material?

Use a suede brush to remove dry dirt. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner, and always test on a small, hidden area first. Avoid water immersion.

What is the best way to maintain the gum outsole?

Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth to remove dirt. For sticky residue, use a mild soap and water solution. Ensure the sole is completely dry before storage or wear.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear suede shoes in wet conditions as moisture can damage the material and cause color transfer. Consider using a water-repellent spray specifically for suede.

What does 'LT' stand for in the product name?

The 'LT' likely stands for 'Lightweight', indicating a focus on a lighter construction for enhanced comfort during everyday wear.

How do the sizes run for this model?

Generally, adidas Originals shoes run true to size. However, it's always recommended to consult the brand's sizing chart or reviews for specific fit information.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is primarily constructed from 'Shadow Red' suede with additional hairy overlays and 'Off White' accents.

Troubleshooting

Suede color transfer

This can happen when suede gets wet or rubs against light-colored materials. Ensure shoes are dry before wear. Use a protective spray designed for suede. If transfer has occurred, try cleaning the affected garment according to its care instructions.

Gum sole is sticky or discolored

Clean the sole with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow to air dry completely. Avoid prolonged exposure to heat, which can affect the gum material.

Laces fraying or breaking

Replace laces with a similar type. Consider using higher-quality replacement laces for durability.

Inner lining feels uncomfortable

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If discomfort persists, the shoe may not be the right fit for your foot shape.
