In the world of sports footwear, few sneakers have achieved a status in the market like the Adidas Handball Spezial. This line, created specifically for the sport of handball, has transcended its original use to become a reference in urban fashion.
In Newcop, we know the social impact of these sneakers and, therefore, we invite you to discover their past, as we did with the history of the Adidas Samba. A whole saga that combines sports performance and urban style that takes us back to the most vintage era of this type of fashion.
Adidas and the world of handball
The relationship of Adidas with handball began in the 1970s, when the sport was gaining popularity in Europe, mainly in the German Bundesliga and the Nordic countries.
In that sense, and being aware of the great opportunity that launching a specific shoe and positioning itself in a space without direct competitors represented, Adidas released the Handball and the truth is that it was a complete success.
Its innovative sole provided optimal traction on the surfaces of handball courts, slippery and sometimes unstable as they were made of parquet and even rubber on some occasions, which caused injuries or unforced errors.
The popularity of the Handball grew rapidly, not only among handball players but also socially, since in that part of Europe the levels of following that sport were comparable to what football might be today.
The simple yet elegant design of these sneakers, along with their durability and comfort, made them an increasingly frequent choice for daily outfits.
Over the years, Adidas has continued with its evolution, maintaining their original essence but adapting them to modern trends and technologies.
Why did Adidas Handball emerge?
The emergence of Adidas Handball, beyond the commercial aspect, was a direct response to the specific needs of the players of handball. This sport, known for its speed and agility, demanded footwear that could withstand quick movements, constant changes of direction, and impacts.
These sneakers were designed to meet the requirements, using high-quality materials and a robust construction to ensure maximum performance, with special emphasis on its distinctive sole.
Additionally, the history of Adidas Handball is also a testament to Adidas' vision to innovate and create products that not only meet sports needs but also adapt to fashion trends.
Its timeless and neutral design, this is what has allowed them to transcend the sports field and become a staple in the wardrobe of urban fashion enthusiasts.
Featured Adidas Handball Models
Within the range of Adidas Handball that you can find at Newcop, there are several models that have stood out for their design and sales volume.
- A classic example are the Spezial Black Gum, which combines a retro look with modern comfort, thanks to an elegant black color that takes us back to the golden era of this sport.
- Another model that follows this trend would be the Spezial Collegiate Green Gum a true tribute to the characteristic green color that represents the German sports teams, inspiring tradition and Olympic medals.
- But if you are looking for something more disruptive, there is also room for bolder ideas like the Spezial Light Blue Wonder Clay which, without abandoning the sobriety that characterizes this Adidas line, presents us with a much more striking color combination.
- And finally, halfway in between are the Spezial Beige, a more formal yet casual idea, which will add a youthful touch to any of your looks, preserving all the vintage flair that we love so much.
