FAQs
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, washing machines can severely damage the suede material and affect the shoe's structure. Stick to spot cleaning or professional suede care methods.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The Handball Spezial silhouette is generally slim. While the suede offers some stretch, individuals with very wide feet may prefer to try them on for fit or consider sizing up.
Are these authentic adidas Originals?
Yes, this is an official adidas Originals product from the Handball Spezial series.
Do I need to wear socks with them?
It is a matter of personal preference, though wearing low-cut or invisible socks is recommended to help keep the interior clean and prevent odors.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Since this is a slip-on model, ensure your heel does not slip out when walking. If you are between sizes, consider the usage style and whether you plan to wear thick or thin socks.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or matted
Use a specialized suede brush to gently lift the nap of the material in one direction.
Minor stains on the surface
Use a suede eraser to gently rub the stain until it lifts, then brush the area to restore the texture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are slip-on shoes, no complex setup is required. For the best fit, ensure you select your standard UK size, as the suede will slightly conform to your foot shape over time. To maintain the appearance, follow these care guidelines: 1. Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dust and dirt regularly. 2. Avoid wearing in heavy rain, as water can mark and damage the suede nap. 3. Apply a suede-specific protective spray to repel light moisture and dirt before the first wear. 4. If the shoes get wet, let them air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the material to harden or shrink.
