FAQs

Are these suitable for actual handball training?

While inspired by handball shoes, these trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and everyday comfort. They may not offer the specific support and performance features required for intense athletic training.

How do I clean the pink suede material?

Use a soft suede brush to remove surface dirt. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner is recommended, followed by brushing to restore the texture. Always test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.

What is the best way to maintain the rubber sole?

Wipe the rubber sole with a damp cloth after use to remove dirt and debris. This helps maintain traction and prevents buildup.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

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

What type of socks are best to wear with these trainers?

Standard ankle or crew socks made of cotton or breathable synthetic blends are suitable. Avoid wearing very thin or dark socks that might cause color transfer onto the suede.

How does the sizing run for this model?

These trainers generally follow standard UK sizing for women. It is recommended to consult a size chart or try them on if possible to ensure the best fit.

Troubleshooting

Suede scuff marks

Gently brush with a suede brush. For tougher marks, use a suede eraser or a slightly damp cloth with a mild cleaner, then brush to restore nap.

Laces feel too tight/loose

Adjust the lacing pattern and tension. Ensure the knot is secure but not overly tight.

Discomfort on first wear

Allow a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time as they mold to your feet.

Color transfer from suede

Ensure the suede is treated and protected. Avoid wearing with light-colored socks or trousers, especially in wet conditions, until the color is fully set.
