FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the Handball Spezial is a lifestyle trainer intended for casual daily use, not for high-impact running or intense athletic activities.
How do I clean the gum sole?
You can clean the gum sole by wiping it down with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution if necessary.
Do these trainers come with extra laces?

Is the material waterproof?

Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or flat
Gently use a suede brush in a circular motion to lift the fibers and restore the original texture.

Swap in the included spare pair of laces provided with your trainers.

Use a specialized suede cleaning kit or eraser; avoid using water or standard soap as this can ruin the finish.
