The Handball Spezial was designed in Germany in 1979 for indoor handball, a sport that required robust footwear capable of withstanding sharp turns and constant friction. The sneaker quickly won over players in Germany, the Netherlands, and Scandinavia, and decades later Gary Aspden retrieved it from the adidas archive to launch the Spezial line. This collaboration with Liberty London, the British brand known for its textile prints since the 19th century, is built on that foundation. The Delft Blue edition features the exclusive Delft Blooms print, reinterpreting the classic silhouette with a highly distinctive floral touch.
The model retains its low profile, suede T-toe, leather three stripes, and the word "SPEZIAL" embroidered in gold on the tongue, set above the characteristic gum sole. In this colorway, the combination of Delft Blue printed textile and leather on the upper provides durability and a unique texture, the direct result of the collaboration with Liberty London.
