FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

The Adidas Handball Spezial typically runs true to standard UK sizing. If you prefer a looser fit with thicker socks, some users recommend going up a half size.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the suede material and weaken the adhesive on the gum sole. Always opt for hand cleaning.

Is the suede water-resistant?

The suede is not naturally water-resistant. Applying a high-quality suede protector spray before the first use can help repel light moisture.

Are these suitable for wide feet?

The Spezial has a fairly standard fit. However, the soft suede upper does tend to stretch slightly over time to accommodate the natural shape of your foot.

What is the difference between this and other Adidas trainers?

The Handball Spezial is defined by its specific indoor-court silhouette, the signature gum sole, and the prominent reinforced heel compared to models like the Stan Smith or Samba.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks matted or flat

Use a soft-bristle suede brush to gently lift the fibers in a circular motion.

Scuff marks on the gum sole

Use a damp cloth with mild soapy water or a dedicated rubber eraser to clean the gum sole edges.

Internal lining odor

Remove the insoles to air out and use an odor-neutralizing spray designed for footwear interiors.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable construction with reinforced heel
  • Superior underfoot cushioning for all-day comfort
  • Timeless design fits well with diverse wardrobes
  • High-quality suede material provides a luxury feel

Cons

  • Light-colored suede is susceptible to staining
  • Not intended for heavy-duty sports performance
  • Requires regular upkeep to maintain the suede texture

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these trainers are constructed with suede, proper care is essential. To keep them looking fresh, we recommend using a specialized suede brush to remove surface dust after every few uses. Avoid exposure to heavy rain or mud, as water and dirt can leave permanent marks on the suede exterior. If the shoes become wet, air-dry them away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can cause the suede to stiffen or shrink. For storage, keep them in a cool, dry place and consider using shoe trees to help the reinforced heel and toe box retain their structure over time.
