FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Most users find the Handball Spezial fits true to size, though the suede may stretch slightly over time.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, washing machines can permanently damage the suede material and cause the glue to lose adhesion.
Is this model suitable for sports?
While based on a performance handball shoe, the modern lifestyle version is best reserved for casual, everyday wear.
How do I protect the leopard print?
Use a neutral-colored suede protector spray to maintain both the black suede and the patterned details.
Does the shoe provide arch support?
The Handball Spezial has a relatively flat footbed; those requiring specific arch support may benefit from adding an aftermarket insole.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks matted or flat
Use a suede brush to gently stroke the fibers in one direction to restore the nap.
Water spots or light stains on suede
Allow the area to air dry completely, then use a suede eraser or a light rub with a suede brush.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Handball Spezial trainers look their best, proper care is essential.
- Weatherproofing: Before the first wear, apply a suede-specific water and stain repellent spray to create a protective barrier.
- Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove surface dirt. Avoid submerging the shoes in water, as this can ruin the suede texture.
- Stain Removal: For minor marks, use a rubber suede eraser to lift the debris gently.
- Storage: Keep your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the black suede from fading.
These trainers are highly versatile and compatible with everything from cuffed jeans to athletic leisure wear.
