Shoes Hummel Powerstrike Pro
Same thermoplastic polyurethane upper, same Reach cushioning, same non-marking rubber: on paper, the Hummel Powerstrike Pro shoes look just like the Topflight Pro, and it's their design that makes the difference.
Lapis blue, cherry tomato, sharp green, limeade, black and orange or white: the Powerstrike Pro plays with bold colours.
Powerstrike Pro: what the technical sheet says
The Powerstrike Pro is an indoor handball and court sports shoe. Its thermobonded TPU upper provides precise support without weighing down the foot. The Reach cushioning, located in the midsole, softens landings, and the Ortholite insole adds comfort. Below, the non-marking rubber grips the floor during starts and rotations.
Powerstrike or Topflight: choosing without making a mistake
Hummel doesn’t assign a position to these two models, and their technical sheets are almost identical. The choice is therefore based on style and trying them on: look for a colour you like, then check that the heel doesn't move and that the front of the foot fits well. If you’re unsure, the page Topflight allows you to compare the two silhouettes.
Powerstrike Pro, a unisex shoe in adult sizes
The Powerstrike Pro is unisex and follows the men's size guide from Hummel. A female player can wear it by choosing her foot length from the chart. Measure both feet and keep the larger value.
Other Hummel options based on your play style
For a defender or a heavier player, the Algiz offers more stability. On the page Power Play, the Power Play Pro adds a reinforced heel and a shank. All ranges are gathered on the page shoes Hummel.
The cheaper Powerstrike
The special offers on shoes change over the months, and the page Black Friday shoes compiles the discounts at the end of autumn.
Frequently asked questions
Is the Powerstrike Pro suitable for a back player?
Yes, as it is versatile for most positions. A back player looking primarily for stability during landings can also consider the Algiz.
Is the Powerstrike Pro suitable for a pivot?
Hummel does not assign it to any position: its thermobonded upper and non-marking rubber suit a recreational pivot. For very strong contact, the Algiz offers more stability.
How to keep bright colours clean?
Wipe the upper with a damp cloth after your session, without any harsh products. Store the pair away from direct sunlight, which can fade the colours over time.
How long does it take to break in?
A shoe with thermobonded reinforcements often requires two or three sessions before it feels comfortable. Keep your previous pair for the first match if the new ones are still a bit tight.
Should I take a size up?
Not necessarily. Measure your foot at the end of the day, with your match socks on, and compare to the Hummel chart: it’s more reliable than a general rule.
