A Palette for Every Season
In their latest collaboration, adidas Originals joins forces with Sporty & Rich founder Emily Oberg. Oberg puts her own spin on a terrace footwear favourite, the Handball Spezial. The collection features three new takes on the shoe, all in beautiful pastel colours.

Each pair boasts a luxurious suede upper with contrasting leather stripes and a classic leather heel piece. For a touch of exclusivity, gold foil “Sporty & Rich” branding adorns the shoe, and it all comes packaged in a special edition box.
Emily Oberg’s vision for the Handball Spezial elevates a terrace staple, transforming it into a piece that bridges the gap between sport and everyday wear.
