It is highly recommended to apply a high-quality suede and nubuck protector spray to your shoes before the first wear and reapply periodically according to the product's instructions. This creates a barrier against moisture and stains.
The adidas Handball Spezial is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual shoe, not for high-performance sports or intense exercise. While they originated from handball, modern athletic shoes offer better support and cushioning for active use.
Regular light cleaning with a suede brush after each wear is recommended to remove dust and dirt. For deeper cleaning or stain removal, address issues as they arise. Applying protector spray every few months, depending on wear, is also beneficial.
Due to their suede construction, it is best to avoid wearing the adidas Handball Spezial in heavy rain or wet conditions. Suede can be easily damaged by water and may stain or lose its texture. If they do get wet, follow the drying instructions in the 'Care Instructions' section.
The size listed is UK 5.5. adidas shoes generally run true to size, but fit can vary. If you are unsure, try to compare it to other adidas shoes you own or consult an adidas size chart. Info needed: [General advice on sizing relative to other brands might be useful, but is not provided]
The term 'terrace deity' refers to the shoe's strong association with 'terrace culture' – a subculture that emerged from football (soccer) fans in the UK. The Handball Spezial became a popular choice among these groups for its clean lines and classic style, elevating it to an iconic status within this community.
Use a suede brush with stiff bristles to gently restore the nap. Brush in small, circular motions or in one direction.
Allow the shoes to dry completely. Then, lightly dampen a clean cloth with water and gently wipe the entire affected area evenly to avoid a new water line. Let dry naturally and brush the nap.
Use a dry suede brush to remove loose dirt. For tougher spots, use a suede eraser or a small amount of specialized suede cleaner according to product directions.
The shoes may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations around the house before longer outings. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks.
The adidas Handball Spezial requires minimal "setup" but consistent care to maintain its premium suede.
