The adidas Handball Spezial is a low-profile suede sneaker that started as an indoor handball shoe in 1979 and now sells mainly as a retro lifestyle trainer. It has a gum rubber outsole with a pivot-point tread, a leather-lined collar and a slim, flat shape that sits close to the foot. Women's versions come in suede and leather mixes across red, pink, purple and brown colorways. Compared with the Samba and Gazelle, it has a softer, more cushioned midsole and a wider toe box, which makes it easier on longer walks. Reviewers rate it highly for comfort straight out of the box and for its clean, low-key look.

Owners rate the Handball Spezial very highly, mostly for comfort and looks. Many say it needs no break-in and works for long walking days. Complaints center on sizing and on the flat sole for people who need arch support.
