A Fresh Take on Classic College Aesthetic
Adidas Originals and Sporty & Rich are back at it again, bringing a fresh spin on vintage college style. This February, the two brands drop a collection that channels the effortless cool of American universities, blending retro aesthetics with premium materials.
Emily Oberg’s brand has once again put its signature touch on an adidas classic, reimagining the iconic Handball Spezial silhouette with a refined, elevated design. If you’re into timeless sneakers with an old-school edge, this drop is one you don’t want to miss.
Premium Materials for a Timeless Look
The Handball Spezial gets a luxurious upgrade, featuring a nubuck upper, suede overlays, and a silky satin lining. Every detail, from the rich textures to the gold-embossed branding, screams vintage sophistication. Available in navy, deep green, and burgundy, these colorways pay homage to classic collegiate palettes while keeping things effortlessly stylish.

Apparel That Blends Comfort and Style
No collection is complete without the perfect fit to match. Sporty & Rich and adidas have also crafted a selection of apparel that merges sportswear with an elevated preppy vibe. Think relaxed crewnecks and wide-leg sweatpants, all featuring embroidered branding and the legendary Three Stripes. It’s a nod to the effortless, lounge-ready aesthetic of the ‘80s, making it perfect for both casual days and stylish streetwear moments.
