FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
While they generally follow standard sizing, it is highly recommended to consult the official adidas size guide for your specific UK size to ensure the most precise fit.
Can I wear these for sports?
While originally designed for handball, this specific model is now primarily considered a lifestyle trainer. They are best suited for daily casual use rather than competitive court sports.
How do I clean the white accents?
Use a soft-bristled brush or damp cloth with a mild soap solution to gently clean the white stripes and midsole, taking care not to oversaturate the leather.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The Handball Spezial features a relatively slim, vintage-inspired profile; individuals with wider feet may prefer to try them on first or consider going half a size up if space allows.
Can the insoles be removed?
The insoles are generally glued in to maintain the shoe's structure; attempting to remove them may damage the lining.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially
Leather and synthetic materials often require a short break-in period; wear them for shorter durations at first to allow the material to adapt to your foot shape.
Outsole loses grip
Check for debris or dirt caught in the tread pattern and clean with a soft brush; ensure the soles are dry before walking on smooth surfaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Handball Spezial trainers maintain their appearance, we recommend checking your foot measurements against the official adidas size guide before purchasing, as fit can vary slightly between models. To clean, wipe down the leather and synthetic surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a mild leather or sneaker-safe cleaning solution. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the materials and adhesives. Store them in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
