FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for playing handball?

While inspired by handball shoes, the Handball Spezial are primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle use. They may not offer the specific performance features or support required for competitive handball.

How do I clean the blue accents on the trainers?

For the blue accents, depending on the material, a slightly damp cloth might be sufficient for light cleaning. Always test any cleaning method on an inconspicuous area first.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear suede shoes in heavy rain or wet conditions as suede can be easily damaged by water. Using a suede protector spray can offer some resistance to light moisture.

What is the difference between Handball Spezial and other adidas trainers?

The Handball Spezial are characterized by their specific retro design, suede construction, and rubber cupsole, directly referencing their handball heritage. Other adidas trainers may feature different materials, technologies, and designs tailored for various sports or fashion trends.

How durable is the rubber sole?

The rubber sole is designed for good grip and durability for everyday wear. Regular cleaning and avoiding excessive abrasion will help maintain its condition.

Do these trainers come in other colors?

Yes, the adidas Handball Spezial model is available in a variety of colorways. Please check other listings or the official adidas website for available options.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or dirty

Use a suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow its instructions carefully.

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Suede can stretch slightly over time with wear. Wearing thicker socks initially might help break them in more quickly if they feel slightly snug.

Laces are worn or dirty

Replace laces with a similar style and length. Clean existing laces with mild soap and water.
