I always default to black, white or off-white shoes. Something about coloured shoes I just dont like. I guess I'm just into a more monochromatic look and majority of my clothes are neutral colours.
none of them. They have a too thick sole and look way better on girls imo. I picked up this year Samba x Kith version and Campus 80 as a every day bitters.
Started wearing all of them since 1979… the Samba was advertised as an indoor soccer shoe, the handball special for what his name says and the gazelle was the cheaper brother of the handball spec. The gazelles sole is too soft, the samba leather is too rigid ( for me), the handball spec. will always be my no.1; in navy with light blue stripes…❤
The Samba "budget" version feels really cheap and hard to break in, these days. The leather upper doesn't deserve the term "leather" IMO. The nicer versions also feel a bit overpriced. But which classic shoe doesn't ;)
Interested to see what the next trending sneaker would be. I bought a pair of sambas and my mum said I they looked like grandpa shoes😭😭. Have a good one bro.
Hey, I wore all the trending sneakers 40!years ago..( samba,gazelle,handball spec.,AF1, onitsuka tiger…) and I still do🤣 but I wear boots and dressshoes as well😃
The good thing about adidas trainers is that they are timeless they never go out of fashion. Similar with Nikes. I have a pair of blue handball spezials and they’re probably my favourite adidas to date. I’ve had the superstars and gazelles in the past but I think the handballs are the best.
Can’t put my finger on it but spezial just look good on me compared to the other two. I was somewhat hesitant initially because I see them everywhere, but I’ve come to love my black spezials.
Thanks to your channel, I rediscovered two pairs of the Gazelle Indoor (black & white) in my cellar a few weeks ago. I had forgotten about them, but now I wear them a lot. Thanks Harry!
Spot on regarding your verdict on the Sambas. I've got a bit of wide feet and felt that tightness around the middle part as well as the rubbing against my ankle at the time I was breaking them in. Comfort has improved somewhat after multiple uses, thankfully. And finally, I wholeheartedly agree with the comfort factor on the Gazelles, though I'm basing this on the classic non-indoor Gazelles, and they're the ones I can comfortably slip on without having to untie the laces. Alas, I've never had the Spezials but am currently looking at a black/gray Cordura pair and perhaps may treat myself with them for Christmas, lol. Kudos as always to your video and enjoy the holidays.
The fact is these silhouettes are the greatest of all time. The Samba itself sold more than 35 millions pair worldwide since 1949. The number just keeps rising. And because soccer or football is the most popular sport in the world. It got even better. I wore the Sambas before the pre hype era. My first 3 sambas were all collabs and man they are a rarity now. One of them from Pharrell Williams, Starcow and Livestock.
I like the busenitz. I feel like it’s a similar style with a bit more of a difference and they dont sell out so fast, and have different colorways. I have two pairs. A green and black pair, and a white and pine pair. They are probably some of my favorite shoes.
I think the green ones are the most beautiful, specially with this indoor sole. I've just got them from Asos and I love them. Mine also came without the white laces.
I’ve always owned vintage/classic adidas sneakers. I personally own all 3. I love them all. You can’t go wrong with any of them. I will say however… I think anytime I wear sambas, I get noticed.
i actually prefer the original Gazelles, they have a more classic look and aren't as flat, i had a pair like 10 years ago and i'm planning to buy a new pair next year to start reviving the adidas part of my collection
Yeah, the older ones look a lot nicer. Some of them look quite similar to the Gucci pairs, which is why I think they changed the standard pairs a bit today
Sambas can be an absolute nightmare for your feet in the first few wears. I find the gazelles and onitsukas much more comfortable than samba and spezial
Love the Gazelle ( green) however, no matter what , it’s all a personal choice. I tried it but I don’t have one because, as 5’6 height , I don’t like too flat hahaha unless I’m like you 6 Footer ( 5’8 my ideal wish ) Nike Air & Jordan’s most of my sneakers. But great presentation, lol I might buy a gazelle this Christmas 😜 cheers 🙏❤️🇨🇦
I would recommend the adidas samba Decon, I think it will address the problems that you have with the regular samba. It’s a very soft leather and the deconstructed heel doesn’t create a hot spot on the heel (at least for me)
i had a pair of busenitz years ago and i been wanting another pair again. theyre a skate shoe and have that big tongue like the samba OGs and suede upper that gives it a more refined look, plus padding so theyre not rough on the heels
I’ve always loved sambas while one of my brothers wears almost exclusively gazelles. We each love a different silhouette I’ve had a friend tell me she thought they looked like bowling shoes, but I love them and have all ways found them effortlessly chic. The point is find which you like and is comfortable and wear them. The heel tab in sambas is a bit higher just mush it around and it will soften up also a bit of alcohol before initial break in wears helps them out. I find often people fail to realize that even though it’s a sneaker it is leather and the material will soften with wear.
i understand that the spezials have a wider toe box or that the samba have a narrower tow box. so i got the spezials as anyway the hems of my pants will cover the name. was at a convention where i had to stand all day, i liked the higher arch support on the spezials. but comfort-wise, i prefer the nike cortez for casual wear and walking. i alwasy thought the Nike Women's Cortez "Orewood Brown and Earth" was Nike's counter launch to the gazelles
I've had some handballs for a good while, and more recently picked up the shadow green gazelle indoors and quite literally googled wtf the difference was between these and the Samba like 2 weeks ago, great timing! from what I've worn, the Handballs are a go to in B/W super comfy and they don't show how beat up they are. Though I love my Kith x Clarks Samba, I can't really use it to judge Sambas since I've never had a normal pair (picked up a WB Samba to try with the funny tongue, hated it and sold em shortly after)
i think the reason they didn't include the white laces in the green gazelle is to prevent from having the same aesthetic as the gucci collab, which came with white laces
Adidas shoes are like pokemons for my obsessive ass. I have at least 1 pair of every model mentioned in this video. They are amazing and I love how Adidas keeps bringing different colorways through their City series or even just the Originals program. Currently waiting on my Malmo colored Handball Spezials.
I got some spezials collecting dust in my garage from 15 years ago. Should cash in and retire lol. My guess is next on the Adi rotation will be Gazelle “vintage” with the folding heal flap.
spezials are my personal favorite - they actually run TTS and i love the rounded laces + structure of the shoe. agreed that the gazelles are the best in fun, colorful colorways but they run a half size big and not a fan of the looong laces
Hey Harry! I know you said the Gazelles fit a little bit bigger than the Sambas, but length wise are they similar, or are the Gazelles look a bit longer on feet as well? Thank you!
Wore Country's, white with green stripes in the late 70's. Have over 25 different pair now. They fit and I always feel sure footed. Quality for dollar. Impressive workmanship in Vietnam, highly skilled Vietnamese. My sambas, Gazelles, Stan Smiths, Spezial, Busenutitz all great quality materials and workmanship. Satisfied US customer
The classic Handball's were always available in blue/white and in white/black. I always thought it was to separate them from the Samba's. The black HB aren't around that long (20 years?). The Samba's actually are an indoor/hard court football shoe :)
Throw any of them on with jeans and a t-shirt and you’ll be good. Many shoes go in and out of “style” but I think it’s fun to wear them at all times. I had a pair of Nike Cortez shoes for a long time after they lost some popularity. I had many complements and questions about them. Others too.
I like this adidas trend cause those shoes looks way better with slim fit pants which I prefer. Adidas makes clean looking, affordable and versatile shoes. Daddy chunky shoes and wide legs pant are one of the worst trend recent years. Keeping my thumbs for adidas and upcoming colabs.
I think you are one of the few people who speak with criteria, you have to wear what you like and forget about trends, you make your own style. I want to buy the gazelle indoor blue fusion, but that version is only for women, how did you choose your size, thanks Harry!
I picked up the white sambas at a good price on Black Friday, my first wear in them and they destroyed the back of my heels, there was blood coming through my socks! I hope they don’t take long to break in fully!
i saw a comparative review from a smaller creator and she showed the insert of the spezials to have a bit higher arch support vs the sambas completely flat in-sole. that's what sold me.
There are 6 women in my office all have Sambas... Mostly that white with black stripes colorway, in my head I'm thinking... you know there are other Adidas shoes and colors right?
i was looking at the college and office interns at the cbd and mrt's in Singapore, the sambas og are still so prevalent, it's mid oct 2024. asked my husband about it and he recommended the spezials, same over all look but a bit higher arch support and a bit wider toe box
Amazing video with a great overall review. Definetely go with the Handball Spezial for me. By the way could you let me know what branded sweat do you wear in the video? :)
Loving the gen z/millenial flash in the pan interest in Adidas classics at the moment, which I’m sure will end as quickly as it began. I do hope that many begin to look deeper into the adidas archive, which is huge and much more varied than these three shoes. ///
I like how the green gazelle look and my current go to show is the new balance 237 in white and green. Im looking for a new everyday comfortable walking shoe rhays still very stylish abd versatile. Any suggestions?
I bought samba in 2017 cause I thought it was an indoor football shoe, and I used it till last April when the sole just ripped after I took a shot. Never expected the Samba to get this much following lol
Picked up handball spezials and tobacco Gruen in Bangkok in August last year happy with both. It's a struggle to find these type of shoes in regional Australia. One has to make the most of it when travelling.
@@anmolshrestha6663 central festival shopping centre in Bangkok. Specials in adidas outlet, tobacco Gruen in another sports outlet the name escapes but it is across from adidas.
I have 5 pairs of Gazelles, 3 pairs of Handball Spezials and a pair of Samba Supers (the REAL Sambas, IMHO). The Gazelles are my go-to trainers, super comfortable even if I wear them all day. I think the Samba Supers look the best, and the Handball Spezials look almost as cool especially the ones with the fold-over tongue. I've been wearing classic Adidas trainers since I was a kid in the 70s, and have always had at least one pair in the wardrobe. Of course, now I'm 55 and mortgage free, I have 16 pairs and a dedicated Adidas section in my closet 😁😁
Are really Gazelles a good option to training and like jogging? I'd like to have a pair for training and leave apart the new models of sneakers for funning
@@jonychavez5404 they’re great for walking, not used them for running. I recently wore them on a trip to Singapore. I walked 30000 steps a day in stinking heat, and didn’t get a single blister
Love my pair of Spezials since I bought it. I only have some trouble styling them with wider pants. They go very well with my array of Dickies 874s though.
Im also on the fence over the white-gray samba. I see them everywhere and here on the Philippines have tons of fakes. And also fear of the hype running out. Just like what happened to the NB 550's
Great vid! I ended up with all 3 of them (white Sambas, black Spezials and blue Gazelles) 🤦🏽♂️ I find size and comfort to be pretty similar so I’d choose whichever one you like the most!
i love them all...however....the pointy toe box will kill you after a while....i have no switched to birkenstocks or barefoot shoes like xeros or shapen barefoot shoes.
I bought my first pair of Adidas Samba back in 2019 and I paid 42€ for them, best shoes ever. This year I choose black Gazelle and I didn't like them so much, so I'm looking for Spezial and I hope i can find them on sale maybe around 60-70€. Good video as always, Harry
I've been wearing the handball Spezials since 2019 and the same pair of shoes have been everywhere with me in the world. And not a single fault on it just a wrinkly nose but that's acceptable of course. The best shoes ever made.
has anyone else experienced problems with the weirdly low lacing of the Gazelle Indoor? It's so low that my foot slips out so I had to return it. For size 12 its around 2cm wider than the Spezial.
I guess you would only know this if you play soccer, but the sambas are one of the most common soccer shoes indoor especially. Growing up every Hispanic kid had a pair for that reason, kind of weird to see them trending now, awesome tho there a great silhouette
Which is your favourite of the 3 or should they be left in 2023?
I'm wearing a black Samba for football today and the same shoes for the office tomorrow, so yeah.
I always default to black, white or off-white shoes. Something about coloured shoes I just dont like. I guess I'm just into a more monochromatic look and majority of my clothes are neutral colours.
Gazelle Indoor for me, love the green n black one
Handball Spezial, I used to wear them back in 2010-2012 , and just got a new one

Hahaha yeah, when I was younger it was always the older men who wore Sambas so I know where she gets that from. You too bro
Hey, I wore all the trending sneakers 40!years ago..( samba,gazelle,handball spec.,AF1, onitsuka tiger…) and I still do🤣 but I wear boots and dressshoes as well😃
Onitsuka tiger Mexico 66 is the new samba for those who like to be first to trends

The vintage pairs are cooler in that shoe so you might have some decent pairs there
@@HarryHas best thing is, that they were basically unworn. Made my day when I pulled them out of that old box.

For me, Spezial are just that little bit wider across the toes and it makes a world of difference. Candy coloured Gazelles are the prettiest tho

Amazing video and amazing review, I've been alternating my blue handball Spezial and green samba and excited to have a pair Gazelle indoor

I used to wear busenitz but due to the uncomfortable sole, i dislike handball due to that both use the same sole
Really interesting, never looked into the difference between these. A lot more going on than I thought!
I suppose they are all pretty similar but I like to get into the details 😂
I think the green ones are the most beautiful, specially with this indoor sole. I've just got them from Asos and I love them. Mine also came without the white laces.
You say you see this trend fading and I tend to agree. Any idea on which kind of sneakers might be on the rise?
Nice video as always of course!
Harry, "getting too deep into it" is my favorite part!
Thank you for the thorough video! I’m so glad I’m not the only one obsessed with the differences of these 3 shoes!
hard to pick 😜💙
Luv my Spezials and Gazelles, they go pretty much with my clothes...still considering to acquire a samba tho
Thanks for the amazing review, Harry!
Have an amazing weekend!
Cheers from Brazil!

Yeah I still have your original 90s pair, unfortunately they’re a a bit worn out 😢 Also they came with white soles.
Sambas can be an absolute nightmare for your feet in the first few wears. I find the gazelles and onitsukas much more comfortable than samba and spezial
after the first 2 days the whole foot hurts and especially the heel. Will it get better over time or will the pain remain?

I've had my Spezial since 2020 and I love them! Looking to pick up another pair.
What’s your opinion on Nike Cortez? I have the ‘Forest Gump’ color that he wore in the movie and it’s my favorite looking sneaker
Another classic shoe. They look hideous but charming at the same time. Big fan.
Definitely Gazelles. They are great fit and great colourways. Have Sambas in white but always go back to the Gazelles b/c of the fit.
I have the black suede spezial, for me for i prefer them very light and soft sole, everytime I put them on I don't feel hard walking around with them
i saw a comparative review from a smaller creator and she showed the insert of the spezials to have a bit higher arch support vs the sambas completely flat in-sole. that's what sold me.
thank you very much for your review
Always love your vids
Does these sneakers give away the traction sound from the outsole? Just as the Nike dunks give while walking on a smooth surface

May need to add the gazelle indoor to my collection. 😍

Which sole is higher, the sambas, spezials or gazelles indoor ??
Hello, I have a 27.5 cm Puma Palermo, do you think the Gazelles share the same size?
I like how the green gazelle look and my current go to show is the new balance 237 in white and green. Im looking for a new everyday comfortable walking shoe rhays still very stylish abd versatile. Any suggestions?
I bought samba in 2017 cause I thought it was an indoor football shoe, and I used it till last April when the sole just ripped after I took a shot. Never expected the Samba to get this much following lol
Why is my spezial not black? I ordered core black, but it's blueish black 😢
The same..
For me its the saucony minted new york, kith asics 12.1 and ald 1000 because i was hype-driven.
Thanks for this detailed video. Helped a lot
I love the 60s Gazelle silhouette over the modern designs.
Me too
Between the spezials and the gazelles which are better for wider feet ?
Spezial
Picked up handball spezials and tobacco Gruen in Bangkok in August last year happy with both. It's a struggle to find these type of shoes in regional Australia. One has to make the most of it when travelling.
Where in bangkok please 😅

I find size and comfort to be pretty similar so I’d choose whichever one you like the most!
Thank you mate
Really like the look of the sambas so will be picking up a pair ✌🏽
i love them all...however....the pointy toe box will kill you after a while....i have no switched to birkenstocks or barefoot shoes like xeros or shapen barefoot shoes.
At first, I thought colorful gazelle was better. But after I tried, the black one look best on my feet.
Easier to style for sure
So I need a yellow sneaker, it's between a Mustard Gazelle or a replica university gold Nike AF1 and I can't decide!
Can you make a video on the Puma Palermo's? or give me your opinion on them? :)

Great vid. Have my eyes on the Handball navy.
Thank you
You definitely are onto something with the indoor football shoe possibilities 🤔
Aww.. was hoping for a definitive answer at the end.. lol😅
just bought green samba after wanting it for some time!!
I bought my first pair of Adidas Samba back in 2019 and I paid 42€ for them, best shoes ever. This year I choose black Gazelle and I didn't like them so much, so I'm looking for Spezial and I hope i can find them on sale maybe around 60-70€. Good video as always, Harry

I've been wearing the handball Spezials since 2019 and the same pair of shoes have been everywhere with me in the world. And not a single fault on it just a wrinkly nose but that's acceptable of course. The best shoes ever made.
Gazelle indoor green and Yellow are lit
has anyone else experienced problems with the weirdly low lacing of the Gazelle Indoor? It's so low that my foot slips out so I had to return it. For size 12 its around 2cm wider than the Spezial.
I guess you would only know this if you play soccer, but the sambas are one of the most common soccer shoes indoor especially. Growing up every Hispanic kid had a pair for that reason, kind of weird to see them trending now, awesome tho there a great silhouette
I love how we are the fourth generation that can say "we already wore those when we were young".
Im still a fan of dragons but samba are getting there. However why put the stripes in the sole part.???
