The size? x adidas Originals Handball Spezial Long Tongue is Available Now

As nostalgia continues to headline the current wave in sneakers, UK-based boutique size? and adidas are bringing a late-1970s performance model to the forefront of their collaborative SS24 project.

The adidas Handball Spezial dominated the handball courts after its introduction in 1979. Nearly half a decade later and the Handball Spezial now looks evolve into the streetwear scene with the help of size? and their 20+ years of experience in the industry.

In a seamless fusion of retro inspiration and contemporary flair, neutral tones dominate the palette, enhancing the timeless appeal while a blend of textiles on the upper infuses a workwear-inspired essence. Embracing a vintage football boot aesthetic, the design features an oversized tongue characteristic of the brand’s signature style.

Leading the campaign is alternative/indie vocalist Brooke Combe, epitomizing the essence of urban chic. Serving as the campaign’s muse, Brooke exudes effortless style against the backdrop of city streets, showcasing the sneakers. Additionally, the campaign captures Brooke’s musical prowess, with candid shots of her strumming the guitar, underscoring her unique artistic identity. Blending music and individuality, this imagery encapsulates the essence of authenticity and originality, embodying the spirit of Brooke, size?, and adidas.
