FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the Handball Spezial generally fits true to your standard adult UK shoe size.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, washing machine cycles can permanently damage the suede and the shoe's structure. Always use hand-cleaning methods.
Are these suitable for sports?
While derived from handball history, they are now categorized as lifestyle sneakers. They are best for casual daily activity.
What is the best way to remove water spots?
Gently dab the area with a damp cloth or specialized suede cleaner and allow it to air dry naturally away from heat sources.
Does the blue colour bleed onto the white suede?
Under normal wearing conditions, the colors are stable. Avoid soaking the shoes to prevent any potential dye transfer.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on the suede
Allow the dirt to dry completely before using a soft suede brush to gently lift the particles away.
Creasing in the toe box
Use a shoe tree when not in use to help maintain the structure and minimize deep creasing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Handball Spezial trainers stay in top condition, follow these simple guidelines:
- Protective Spray: Apply a suede-safe water and stain repellent before your first wear to protect against everyday elements.
- Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt gently. For tougher spots, use a dry sponge specifically designed for suede.
- Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight, which can fade the blue accents over time.
- Compatibility: These trainers pair perfectly with tapered denim, chinos, or athletic shorts, making them an adaptable addition to your existing wardrobe.
