Adidas is on a roll. The brand made history by becoming the first to break the two-hour barrier in the marathon, its away jersey featuring the Trefoil logo has been a record-breaking hit, and within the lifestyle category, Adidas Originals’ minimalist court-style sneakers are gaining popularity across a wide range of demographics.
Among the various court shoes in the Adidas Originals lineup, one model that has been steadily gaining traction in recent years is the “Handball Spezial,” an indoor shoe designed specifically for handball that debuted in 1979. A special collaboration model with Atmos has now been released as a special edition of this shoe.

In addition, this collection features a collaboration with *Atmos Pink* as part of the women’s lineup. The design combines light blue denim with ruffles, and while it incorporates details that evoke a sense of history—such as the tongue patch and classic gum sole—it maintains a feminine aesthetic.
This ambitious collection is a perfect blend of the deep historical insight and keen trend-spotting skills unique to these two stores, which lead Tokyo’s sneaker culture. Be sure to check it out in-store.
