FAQs

What material is the upper made from?

The upper of these Adidas Handball Spezial Trainers is crafted from high-quality suede, providing a premium look and comfortable, flexible feel.

Are these trainers suitable for sports?

While the Handball Spezial has athletic origins, this modern iteration is primarily designed for casual, everyday wear and fashion. It is not recommended for high-impact sports or intense athletic activities to preserve its condition and aesthetic.

How do I clean the suede?

Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt. For minor stains or scuffs, a suede eraser can be effective. For deeper cleaning, specialized suede cleaning products are recommended, always testing on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid saturating the suede with water.

Are these trainers true to size?

Info needed: [Generally, Adidas trainers are often considered true to size, but individual foot shapes and preferences can vary. We recommend consulting the official Adidas size guide if available, or trying them on to ensure the best fit.]

What is included in the box?

In addition to the pair of Adidas Handball Spezial Trainers, an extra pair of laces is included for your convenience, allowing for replacement or customization.

Can I wear these in the rain?

Suede is not naturally water-resistant. We strongly recommend applying a high-quality suede protector spray before first wear and periodically thereafter to offer some resistance against light moisture. However, it's best to avoid heavy rain or very wet conditions to prevent damage, staining, and matting of the suede.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or dirty

Gently brush the suede with a specialized suede brush to lift dirt and restore the nap. For tougher spots, use a suede eraser or a small amount of suede cleaner following product instructions, always testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Trainers feel stiff or uncomfortable initially

This is common with new footwear, especially suede. Wear the trainers for short periods over several days to allow them to break in and conform to the shape of your feet. Ensure laces are not tied too tightly.

Laces are worn or broken

Your Handball Spezial Trainers include an extra pair of laces. Simply replace the old laces with the new ones. If you wish to purchase different laces, ensure they are of similar length and thickness for optimal fit and aesthetics.

Shoes got wet and suede looks matted

Stuff the shoes with newspaper or shoe trees to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to carefully restore the nap.

Pros and Cons

  • Timeless Style: The classic Handball Spezial design complements a wide range of casual outfits, offering a versatile fashion statement.
  • Comfortable Fit: Generous cushioning provides comfort for prolonged wear, ideal for daily activities.

Cons

  • Suede Maintenance: Requires specific cleaning and protection to prevent stains and wear, especially in adverse weather conditions.
  • Limited Weather Resistance: Suede is not ideal for heavy rain or very wet conditions without proper pre-treatment and care.
  • Not for Performance Sports: While historically a handball shoe, modern usage is primarily casual; not designed for high-impact athletic activities.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Using your Adidas Handball Spezial Trainers is straightforward. Simply lace them up to your desired tightness for a comfortable and secure fit. The included extra pair of laces allows for immediate replacement or an alternative look, such as a different color or lacing style.

  1. Unpack: Carefully remove the trainers from their packaging.
  2. Lace Up: Adjust the laces for a snug, comfortable fit, ensuring even tension across the foot.
  3. Break-In: Wear them for short periods initially to allow the high-quality suede to conform naturally to your foot shape.

Compatibility

These trainers are highly versatile for casual fashion and everyday styling:

  • Outfits: Pair effortlessly with casual wear like jeans, chinos, cargo pants, shorts, and can even complement some smart-casual ensembles.
  • Seasons: Best suited for dry conditions. With proper protection, they can withstand light dampness, but heavy rain should be avoided to protect the suede material.
  • Activities: Ideal for daily errands, social gatherings, light walking, and general leisure activities where comfort and style are key.

Care

Proper care is crucial for maintaining the premium look and extending the longevity of your suede trainers.

  1. Suede Protection: Before first wear, apply a high-quality suede protector spray to create a barrier against water and stains. Reapply periodically according to the product instructions.
  2. Regular Cleaning:
  • Brush: Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove dirt, dust, and restore the nap. Always brush in one direction.
  • Stains: For minor scuffs or stains, use a specialized suede eraser to gently rub away marks.
  • Deeper Cleaning: For tougher spots, use a specialized suede cleaner following the product's instructions. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
  1. Drying: If the trainers get wet, stuff them with newspaper or shoe trees to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources.
  2. Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can further help maintain their original shape when not in use.
  3. Avoid: Do not machine wash or tumble dry suede trainers. Avoid using harsh chemicals, stiff brushes, or detergents not specifically designed for suede, as these can cause irreversible damage.
