Still holding strong, the Handball Spezial shoes showcase their glory. The legacy of the adidas Handball Spezial runs deep, first produced back in 1979 with — surprise — handball in mind. Few things have changed with the silhouette since then. They still feature a high-quality, robust upper and the classic details like the reinforced heel panel, high-traction gum sole and the timeless T-toe design. All which stood up to the wear-and-tear of the fast and physical sport. Now, all those same details still hold strong against the grind, though now it's just the moves of the day.
