adidas Handball Spezial in Canada: Colourways, the Loafer, the Golf Shoe and Sizing (2026)
The adidas Handball Spezial is available in Canada from Gallery Streetwear, an authorized Canadian adidas retailer at 588 Bernard Ave in Kelowna, BC, which stocks the 1979 indoor handball shoe in nine styles, including two new colourways that just landed, a women's loafer and a spikeless golf version, and ships Canada-wide.
This guide covers the Handball Spezial styles Gallery has right now, what each is made from, how the shoe fits and what each costs. Sizes are thin on most pairs, so the size selector on each product page is the source of truth for what is available today.

How does the adidas Handball Spezial fit?
adidas lists the Handball Spezial as true to size, so order your usual adidas size; adidas publishes no instruction to size up or down in the standard model. The golf version uses the same last, which most people find true to size with a slightly narrow forefoot, so take the half size up if you are between sizes or wide-footed. Our Samba and Spezial sizing guide goes deeper, and you can try pairs on at the Kelowna store.
Handball Spezial, Samba, loafer or golf shoe: which one?
- Everyday terrace sneaker: pick a lace-up colourway. Suede (Light Blue, Black / White / Gum, the new women's Blanch Brown) is the softer look; Earth Strata's houndstooth textile is the most different; the cracked-leather White / Red / Gum has more contrast and patent details.
- Spezial or Samba: see Samba vs Spezial vs Campus.
- Laceless: the women's loafer gives you the same gum outsole and low profile in a slip-on.
- On the course: the spikeless golf shoe is the one built for golf; see our spikeless golf shoe guide.
