FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

No, these are lifestyle trainers and do not provide the motion control or impact cushioning required for professional or high-intensity running.

How do I determine my size?

The trainers use standard UK adult sizing. It is best to compare against your current adidas footwear for the most consistent fit.

Are these trainers unisex?

While often categorized by size, the design is versatile and suitable for anyone who fits the available UK size range.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the leather upper and compromise the glue used in the construction. Stick to manual cleaning methods.

What is the primary material used?

The upper is constructed from high-quality leather, which provides durability and a premium look.

Troubleshooting

Leather showing scuff marks

Use a matching leather polish or cream to buff out minor surface scuffs and restore the shine.

Shoes feeling too tight

Loosen the laces significantly from the bottom up to allow the upper to expand, then adjust gradually for a snug but comfortable fit.

Outsole picking up debris

The textured grip is designed for performance; use a stiff-bristled brush to clear out pebbles or dirt trapped in the tread pattern.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Timeless, classic design that matches various styles
  • Durable leather material stands up to daily wear
  • Excellent traction from the specialized rubber outsole
  • Secure fit provided by the adjustable lace-up system
  • Comfortable padded collar design

Cons

  • Not intended for high-intensity athletic performance
  • Leather requires specific care compared to synthetic materials
  • Limited color palette focuses on classic combinations

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Handball Spezial trainers last as long as possible, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Breaking In: New leather shoes may feel stiff initially; wear them indoors for short periods to allow the leather to mold to your foot shape.
  2. Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt from the outsole. For the leather upper, wipe with a damp cloth and a mild leather cleaner if necessary. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources, which can cause the leather to crack or shrink.
  4. Compatibility: These trainers feature a standard UK sizing scale. If you are between sizes, it is recommended to test the fit with your preferred thickness of sock to ensure adequate room in the toe box.
