Product Information
Full details
The adidas Handball Spezial trainers are ideal for fashion-conscious adults seeking a blend of vintage 1970s aesthetics and modern comfort. Originally engineered for elite handball athletes, these trainers offer a lightweight, durable construction that excels in casual streetwear environments, though their low-profile design lacks the intense arch support found in specialized modern athletic shoes.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, these are lifestyle trainers designed for casual wear and lack the cushioning and stability features required for running.
What is the primary material of these trainers?
This specific edition features high-quality nylon construction with premium overlays for added durability.
Can I use these for indoor sports?
While they were originally designed for handball, modern technical footwear is recommended for competitive sports due to advancements in injury prevention and support.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
This model is listed in UK sizing. We recommend checking your current adidas footwear size as a baseline for the best fit.
Are the laces interchangeable?
Yes, you can swap the standard laces for other lengths or colors to customize your look without affecting the performance.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty maintaining cleanliness on textured overlays
Use a specialized soft-bristled brush to gently lift debris from the textured areas rather than rubbing with a damp cloth.
Feel that the fit is too snug
Consider wearing thinner socks or loosening the laces significantly along the entire eyelet path to expand the upper.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Classic, timeless 1970s design

Cons
- Limited arch support compared to performance athletic shoes

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your trainers maintain their look, clean the nylon and textured overlays gently with a soft brush to remove loose dust. If the shoes become soiled, use a mild soap and water solution on a damp cloth, avoiding full submersion to protect the integrity of the materials. When storing, keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading. Since these are unisex trainers, ensure you verify the UK size 11.5 fit against your specific foot shape for optimal comfort, as the low-profile cut can feel snug compared to chunkier modern trainers.
