FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for sports or athletic activities?

While historically inspired by handball, the Adidas Handball Spezial is now primarily a lifestyle shoe. It is designed for comfort and casual wear, not for high-performance sports or intense physical activity.

How do I clean the suede material?

For best results, use a specialized suede brush and eraser for dry cleaning. For more stubborn stains, a dedicated suede cleaner should be used, following the product's instructions. Avoid soaking the shoes in water.

Can I wear these shoes in the rain?

Suede is not naturally water-resistant. It is highly recommended to apply a water-repellent suede protector spray before wearing them, especially in damp conditions, to prevent water damage and stains.

What is the sizing like for Adidas Handball Spezial?

Adidas sizing is generally consistent. It is recommended to choose your standard UK shoe size. If you are between sizes, consider trying them on to ensure the best fit.

What materials are used in the construction of this shoe?

This specific variant features soft suede uppers, sleek leather overlays for the iconic three-stripes, a comfortable leather lining, and a durable rubber outsole.

Does this model come in other materials besides suede?

Yes, while this specific variant features suede uppers, the Adidas Handball Spezial series is also available with leather uppers in some versions, offering a different look and feel.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or matted.

Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap and vibrancy of the suede, brushing in one direction.

Minor scuffs or marks on the suede.

Gently rub the scuff with a specialized suede eraser, then brush the area with a suede brush.

Shoes feel a bit stiff initially or are difficult to put on.

Wear them for short periods at first to break them in. The soft suede and leather lining will conform to your foot over time. Ensure laces are loosened sufficiently when putting them on.

Laces come undone frequently during wear.

Ensure the laces are tied securely, consider double-knotting them, or explore alternative lacing techniques for a more stable fit.

Care Instructions

Proper care is essential to maintain the quality and appearance of your suede Handball Spezial shoes.

Protect Suede: Before the first wear, and periodically thereafter, apply a high-quality suede protector spray. This creates an invisible barrier against water, stains, and dirt, significantly extending the life of your shoes.
Regular Cleaning (Dry):

For light dirt and dust, use a dedicated suede brush (preferably with brass bristles) to gently brush off debris. Always brush in the direction of the nap.
For minor scuffs or shiny spots, use a suede eraser (similar to a pencil eraser) to gently rub away marks. Follow up with the suede brush.

Deep Cleaning (Stains):

For tougher stains, use a specialized suede cleaner specifically designed for footwear. Always follow the product manufacturer's instructions carefully.
Avoid water and harsh chemical cleaners directly on suede, as they can cause permanent damage or discoloration.

Drying Wet Shoes: If your shoes get wet, do not machine wash or tumble dry. Stuff them with paper towels or newspaper to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape. Air dry them naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources (like radiators or sunlight), which can cause the suede to stiffen or crack.
Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and prevent creasing when not in use.
Laces: The laces can be removed and hand-washed separately with a mild soap if they become dirty.
