FAQs

Are these suitable for playing handball?

While inspired by handball shoes, these are primarily designed for casual wear and fashion. They do not offer the specialized support or performance features required for competitive handball.

How do I determine my correct UK size?

Refer to the brand's official size chart for adidas Originals. It's recommended to measure your foot length and compare it with the provided measurements. Sizes can vary slightly between models.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

The trainers are not waterproof. While they can withstand light moisture, they are not recommended for heavy rain. Ensure they are dried properly if they get wet to prevent damage.

What is the material of the upper?

The upper typically features a combination of leather and suede, providing both durability and a classic aesthetic.

How often should I clean the suede parts?

Clean the suede as needed, especially if you notice dirt or stains. Regular brushing can help maintain its appearance and prevent dirt from setting in.

Do these trainers come in other colors?

The Handball Spezial model is available in various colorways. Check the product listings for other available options besides Grey Four/Off White/Grey Six.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Wear with thin socks initially and allow the shoes to naturally mold to your feet over time. Consider using a shoe stretcher if the tightness is significant.

Suede appears scuffed or dirty

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, consult a suede cleaner.

Gum sole has marks

Try cleaning the sole with a damp cloth. For persistent marks, a melamine sponge (magic eraser) can be effective.

Laces are worn out

Replace laces with standard flat or round shoelaces that match the shoe's aesthetic.
