Adidas Originals Readies the Women's Handball Spezial for Summer in 'Lucid Red'

The Adidas Handball Spezial debuted in 1979 as the footwear of choice for handball specialists across the globe. Throughout the 2020s, the low-top trainer has enjoyed a new life as many fashionable folks' go-to sneaker. Ahead of summer, the design has emerged in a vibrant 'Lucid Red/Glow Blue' color scheme exclusively for Women.

Akin to other popular finishes on the Adidas Originals offering, the newly-surfaced style features a premium mix of leather and suede construction across its upper. The latter material indulges ruby-colored flair, while the former boasts a tamer, but equally summer-appropriate blue that creates a classic two-tone setup. 'Glow Blue' also animates inner lining.

Underfoot, the retro style enjoys traditional 'Gum One' tooling, which has taken on a plethora of Adidas Samba makeovers in the last four years. The impending pair's bottom-half, however, features sport-specific traction patterns that modernize the German company's athletic legacy.
