FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for playing handball?

While inspired by handball shoes, the Spezial Trainers are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear. They may not offer the specific support or performance needed for competitive handball.

How do I clean the suede material?

Gently brush the suede with a suede brush to remove dirt. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner following the product's instructions. Avoid soaking the shoes in water.

What is the best way to break in these trainers?

Wear them for short periods initially to allow the materials to soften and conform to your feet. Avoid wearing them in wet conditions during the break-in phase.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear suede shoes in heavy rain or wet conditions, as water can stain and damage the suede. Consider using a waterproofing spray designed for suede.

What other colors or sizes are available?

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or dirty

Use a suede brush to clean and restore the texture. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow its instructions carefully.

Shoes feel too tight initially

Wear them for short periods to allow the suede to mold to your foot. Avoid wearing them in wet conditions during the break-in period.

Laces get dirty

Remove laces and wash them separately by hand with mild soap and water, or replace them if significantly worn.
