FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the adidas Handball Spezial typically fits true to standard UK sizing.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
No, washing suede shoes in a machine will damage the material and structure. Always clean by hand using proper supplies.
Are these suitable for gym use?
These are primarily lifestyle fashion trainers and lack the technical support and cushioning required for high-impact gym workouts.
Does the animal print fade over time?
The pattern is designed to be durable, but like any premium material, it should be kept away from harsh chemicals and excessive scrubbing.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is not recommended. Suede can absorb water, which may lead to staining or hardening of the material.
Troubleshooting
Scuff marks on the suede
Gently use a suede eraser or a soft-bristled brush to buff out the marks in the direction of the grain.
General dulling of the color
Use a suede renewing spray or brush the material to lift the nap and restore the vibrant look of the suede.
