Full details

Featuring high-quality suede construction and a striking red and gold color palette, these shoes offer exceptional versatility for casual outings and urban wear. While they provide excellent style and daily durability, users should note that as a low-profile court-inspired shoe, they are best suited for lifestyle use rather than high-impact athletic performance.

FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the adidas Handball Spezial typically fits true to standard UK sizing, though the suede will soften and accommodate your foot shape over time.

Can I use these for playing handball?

While originally designed for handball, this version is marketed for lifestyle use; for high-intensity indoor sports, specific performance court shoes are recommended.

How do I maintain the vibrant red color?

Keep the shoes out of direct sunlight when not in use to prevent the colors from fading and avoid harsh cleaning chemicals.

Are these trainers waterproof?

No, the suede upper is porous. While a protector spray helps, they are not designed to be worn in wet or rainy conditions.

Are these suitable for people with wide feet?

The slim silhouette may feel snug initially. If you have very wide feet, you may consider going up half a size if available.

Troubleshooting

Visible water or dirt spots on suede

Use a suede eraser or a soft-bristled brush to gently buff the affected area once it is completely dry.

Uncomfortable pressure points during break-in

Wear the trainers for short durations around the house with thicker socks to gradually stretch the suede to your foot shape.

Laces becoming undone frequently

Ensure they are laced tightly enough for your preferred fit, or swap for slightly longer laces if using a specific secure-tie method.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

When you receive your pair, ensure you check the size fit using the UK sizing provided. Because these are made from premium suede, it is highly recommended to apply a suede-specific protective spray before your first wear to repel dirt and moisture. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dust and surface stains. Avoid putting these trainers in a washing machine, as the moisture and heat can damage the suede texture and the integrity of the adhesive. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the vibrant red and gold finish.
