Taking cues from pre-millennial football boots from adidas’ archive including the Predator and Copa Mundial, our adidas Originals Handball Spezial Long Tongue – size? exclusive is a rustic take on a widely cherished terrace stand grail.
Both pairs are doused in brown and sandy uppers constructed from suede, with a workwear-inspired textile T-toe, eye stays, and 3-Stripes. Underfoot, a gum outsole softened by a cushioned insole provides stud-like grip alongside offering vintage qualities. Polishing up, debossed Trefoil branding sits atop the tongue, with woven Handball Spezial labelling on the flip side.
The adidas Originals Handball Spezial LT – size? exclusive ‘Brown’ and ‘Sand’ launch at size? on 10.05.2024.
