FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

The Handball Spezial generally fits true to size, though the suede construction may allow for a slight stretch after a few wears.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, never place suede shoes in a washing machine as this will damage the texture and colour of the material.

Are these suitable for rainy weather?

It is not recommended to wear these in heavy rain, as water can stain and damage the suede material.

How do I maintain the brown colour?

Keep the shoes out of direct, prolonged sunlight and use a suede-safe protective spray to prevent fading.

What is the best way to store the trainers?

Store them in a cool, dry area, preferably with shoe trees or acid-free paper inside to hold their shape.

Can I use leather cleaner on these?

No, you should only use products specifically formulated for suede to avoid permanent spotting or damage.

Troubleshooting

Surface dust and loose dirt

Use a soft-bristled brush to gently sweep away particles in the direction of the suede nap.

Water spots on suede

Allow the shoe to air dry naturally, then use a suede brush to restore the texture.

Scuff marks on the suede

Gently rub the scuffed area with a suede eraser or a clean white pencil eraser to buff out the mark.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your suede trainers remain in peak condition, apply a suede protector spray before wearing them for the first time. This creates a barrier against dirt and moisture. When cleaning, avoid water-soaking the suede. Instead, use a suede-specific brush to remove loose debris and gently lift the nap. For tougher spots, a suede eraser works effectively. When storing, keep your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can cause the brown colour to fade over time. Using a shoe tree can help maintain the shape of the toe box.
