FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for sports or running?

No, the adidas Handball Spezial Suede Trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle purposes. While they offer comfort and durability for daily activities, they are not engineered for high-performance sports or running.

How do I protect the suede from water and stains?

It is highly recommended to apply a high-quality suede protector spray before your first wear. Reapply this spray periodically, as instructed by the product, to maintain its protective barrier against moisture and stains.

Are these trainers true to size?

Generally, adidas Handball Spezial trainers are considered true to size in UK adult foot sizing. However, foot shapes vary, so if you are between sizes, it's often advisable to consult an adidas size chart for precise measurements or try them on if possible.

Can I put my suede trainers in the washing machine?

No, you should never put suede trainers in a washing machine. The harsh detergents, agitation, and water can severely damage the suede material, causing it to shrink, stiffen, or lose its color and texture. Always follow manual cleaning methods as described in the care section.

What is the material of the sole?

The trainers feature a durable gum rubber sole, which provides excellent traction and contributes to the shoe's classic aesthetic and longevity.

My new trainers came with an extra pair of laces. What are they for?

The extra pair of laces is included for customization. You can use them to change the look of your trainers, or as a replacement if your original laces become worn or damaged over time.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull, matted, or dirty.

Use a specialized suede brush to gently brush the nap of the suede in one direction to restore its texture. For dirt, use a suede eraser to lift marks, followed by brushing. For tougher stains, use a suede cleaning solution as directed.

Trainers got wet and now have water marks or feel stiff.

Immediately blot away excess water with a clean cloth. Stuff the trainers with newspaper or paper towels to absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to restore the nap.

Sole has lost its grip or looks dirty.

Clean the gum sole with a mild soap and water solution and a soft brush or cloth. For stubborn dirt, an old toothbrush can be effective. Rinse thoroughly and wipe dry. Ensure no water gets onto the suede upper during cleaning.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Iconic and Versatile Style: The classic design seamlessly integrates with a wide range of casual outfits, from jeans to smart casual wear.
  • Comfortable for Daily Wear: The soft suede and supportive construction make these trainers ideal for everyday use and extended periods of walking.
  • Durable Construction: With a hard-wearing gum sole and reinforced heel, these shoes are built to last with proper care.
  • Premium Material Feel: The suede upper provides a luxurious touch and a distinct texture that stands out.

Cons

  • Suede Requires Specific Care: The premium suede material is susceptible to stains and water damage, demanding specialized cleaning and protection.
  • Limited Breathability: Compared to trainers with mesh or canvas uppers, suede can offer less airflow, potentially leading to warmer feet in hot conditions.
  • Not Ideal for Wet Weather: Suede can easily get marked or damaged when exposed to rain or excessive moisture, reducing their practicality in certain climates.
  • Initial Break-in Period: While comfortable, some users might experience a slight break-in period for the suede to fully conform to their foot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Initial Setup

  1. Lacing: Upon receiving your trainers, thread the laces through the eyelets to your preferred tightness. The extra pair of laces allows for immediate customization if you desire a different look or color.
  2. First Wear: Wear your trainers for short periods initially to allow the suede and sole to naturally conform to your foot shape. This helps ensure maximum comfort.

Compatibility

  • Sizing: These trainers are sized according to UK adult foot sizes. Most users find them to be true to size. If you are unsure, refer to a standard adidas size chart for precise measurements. This specific model is a UK Size 11.
  • Gender: The adidas Handball Spezial design is Unisex, making it suitable for all adults.
  • Style: The classic and versatile design means these trainers complement a wide range of casual and smart-casual wardrobes.

Product Care & Maintenance (Suede Specific)

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

  1. Immediate Protection: Before the first wear, apply a suede protector spray. This creates a barrier against water and stains, significantly extending their pristine condition. Reapply regularly as per product instructions.
  2. Regular Cleaning: Use a suede brush to gently remove dirt and dust. Brush in one direction to maintain the nap of the suede.
  3. Spot Cleaning: For minor marks, use a suede eraser (a special rubber block) to gently rub away blemishes. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaning solution applied with a clean cloth, following the product's instructions. Always test in an inconspicuous area first.
  4. Drying: If your trainers get wet, stuff them with paper towels to absorb moisture and help them retain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources (like radiators or sunlight), which can damage the suede.
  5. Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
  6. Avoid Water: Suede is highly susceptible to water damage. Try to avoid wearing your trainers in rainy or wet conditions. If they do get wet, clean and dry them promptly as described above.
