adidas Handball Spezial - Pink Gum - Size: 8.5

These trainers feature a leather upper for durability and a premium feel, with a rubber gum sole.

While the Handball Spezial series has roots in athletic performance, these specific trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. They offer good comfort and support for everyday activities but may not provide the specialized features needed for competitive handball.

Refer to the sizing chart provided by the retailer and measure your foot. Consider the specific fit of the Handball Spezial model, which can vary slightly. Reviews from other customers may also offer insights into sizing.

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoe.

Use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap. Gently scrub the sole and wipe clean with a fresh damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Leather offers durability, breathability, and conforms to your foot over time, providing a personalized fit and developing a unique patina with age.

The adidas Handball Spezial series is available in various colourways. This specific model, 'Pink Gum' IH2610, features the distinctive pink and gum combination. Please check product listings for other available colour options.

Loosen the laces and try re-lacing them, ensuring they are not overtightened. Wear with appropriate socks and break them in gradually.

This can sometimes occur with new leather or rubber. Try walking on different surfaces or ensure the insoles are properly seated. A talcum powder under the insole might help.

The gum sole can be susceptible to picking up dirt. Gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
