FAQs

Are the adidas Handball Spezial trainers waterproof?

No, the suede upper is not waterproof. It is recommended to use a protective spray to provide a basic layer of moisture resistance.

Do these shoes run true to size?

Yes, they generally fit true to size, but the suede material is soft and may stretch slightly over time to fit your foot shape.

Can I put my adidas Spezial trainers in the washing machine?

No. Machine washing can ruin the suede material and affect the adhesive used in the gum sole construction.

How do I clean the gum sole?

You can use a damp cloth with a mild detergent to wipe down the edges of the gum sole.

Are these suitable for gym workouts?

While they are comfortable, they are designed as fashion trainers. They lack the specific lateral support found in dedicated performance athletic footwear.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or matted

Use a suede brush or a clean eraser to gently lift the nap of the material and restore its texture.

Laces becoming loose during the day

Ensure the laces are threaded properly through all eyelets and consider a double knot if the round laces feel slippery.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile retro design suitable for various casual outfits
  • High-quality suede construction offers a premium look
  • Generous cushioning provides excellent comfort for daily wear
  • Sturdy gum sole offers reliable grip and durability

Cons

  • Suede material is sensitive to moisture and stains
  • Limited water resistance compared to leather or synthetic trainers
  • Requires regular maintenance to keep the suede looking fresh

Setup, Compatibility & Care

As these trainers arrive ready to wear, no mechanical setup is required beyond adjusting the lacing to your preferred tension. When it comes to compatibility, the Handball Spezial generally fits true to size, but those with wider feet may prefer to wear thinner socks initially to allow the suede to soften and mold to the foot shape.

Care Instructions:

  1. Preventative Spray: Apply a suede-specific water and stain repellent spray before first use.
  2. Dry Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dust or light dirt particles after wearing.
  3. Stain Removal: For minor marks, use a dedicated suede eraser; avoid using water or standard soap as it may damage the finish.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can cause the vibrant colors to fade over time.
