The adidas Handball Spezial Cordura trainer features foul weather uppers, protecting your favourite footwear from the traditional trainer' wrecking season.
Winter can be pretty shit when it comes to wearing trainers. The colder months aren't exactly geared up for a pair of all white, box fresh kicks that usually end up looking like you've just pulled them out of your local canal the moment you step outside in them. Muddy puddles, rain, dirty pavements & general winter conditions can literally ruin a pair of trainers in a matter of minutes. If like us you take your trainers super seriously, ruining them in foul weather conditions is simply not an option. Luckily for us brands like adidas have got you covered so we can still flaunt our favourite footwear no matter what the time of year is. The introduction of classic 3 stripes styles in foul weather fabrics like GORE-TEX & Codura over the last few years has gone down an absolute storm (excuse the pun) with trainer enthusiasts. Sticking two fingers up to the traditional trainer' wrecking season of the winter months, it's the adidas Handball Spezial Cordura trainer that now arrives at 80s Casual Classics.

Built for speed and grip on the speedy handball courts of Germany & Europe, the adidas Handball SPEZIAL trainer was originally released back in 1979. A pinnacle time in casual fashion & one-upmanship the OG 3 stripes style quickly became one of the most desirable for football fans across the UK. Whereas the Kick, the Samba & the Mamba were all geared up for football, the Handball Spezial (as the name clearly implies) was the Handball-Bundesliga's answer to the perfect performance shoe. The Handball Spezial has seen various countries of manufacture since its release back in the late 1970s such as West Germany, Slovakia, Poland & France. The original Handball trainer from adidas also started a legacy of indoor handball shoes from the 3 stripes brand such as the Handball Top which arrived 8 years later in 1987. After a more recent revival courtesy of Gary Aspden back in 2014, the Handball Spezial has become a mainstay for 3 stripes enthusiasts and one of the most sought after adidas silhouettes.
