adidas HB Spezial 3, Men's Trainers

I was gladly surprised with the high quality of these shoes, and they are exactly as described. First off, the pair I received - bought directly from Amazon - is definitely genuine. There are many cases of online reviewers saying they don't know if their shoes are actually Adidas originals or cheap copies, for one reason or another. Mine are definitely genuine, since the quality of all materials is very high and the finish is greatly done, golden symbols are indeed golden and not yellow, the stitching is greatly done, there are no significant glue leftovers on the leather (which is itself very good looking and smooth), the back Adidas symbol is the correct size and has the usual relief, the small stars on the toes are perfectly aligned - all of these things are usually incorrect in replicas. They are made in Indonesia but the quality is definitely as good as can be expected, and I recommend buying these over replicas which are usually about 30 to 50 percent the cost but have very low quality when compared to the genuine shoes. The Adidas Superstar are very cool looking and very comfortable, no breaking-in was necessary, and they fit my feet perfectly. I did buy one size up from my usual shoe size, since this is what I usually do when buying sports shoes and it's never failed. Not sure why sports shoes seem to be smaller when compared to other type of shoes. I'm not sure whether they would make good shoes for sports and I only intend to use them casually. They were initially designed as basketball shoes, though, so they should be good at least for casual sports, but they're probably not suitable for advanced players or professionals. The grip of the sole is definitely very good, though. Definitely recommended.

Excellent!!

Excellent as all addidas gear is

Reasonable price for these Superstars (just shy of £60) – and yeah, the ones I received are definitely the genuine article, as I’ve got several pairs myself in a variety of colours that I’ve purchased over the years from different retailers, and these are exactly the same quality and branding etc as my own. I noticed some reviewers mentioned their trainers didn’t have the Adidas branding/Superstar written in gold, again, I can only say the ones I received are definitely gold and look exactly as shown in the above image. I got this pair for my hubby, although he did need a bit of convincing at first (he normally sticks with Gazelles or Stan Smiths) as he’s always insisted the famous shell-toe is “a bit too girly lookin” Lol. Anyway, he’s now a convert and thinks they’re very cool. The only thing I would say is he’s normally a size 8 in most other brands of shoes/trainers, but with Adidas finds he has to go up half a size (sometimes even one size), so I got these in size 8.5 and they fit perfectly and are very comfy. If you’re the type who tends to practically live in your trainers, then in my experience Superstars last for around a good 3-ish years before they get too worn looking to wear, although they’ll no doubt last longer if they’re just for occasional wear, or for the gym. Fast delivery and well packed.

Does what it says on the Tin. Yes they are a little more than most people want to pay. But the quality of adidas shows. So comfortable and elegant

Excellent product and the best price around

Ive wanted a pair of these for some time but price has always put me off. These were a reasonable price. Arrived as expected, on the due date. Packed well, trainers in their addidas box, unworn, perfect condition. I did wonder if they would be too narrow for me, and I'd ordered them a half size bigger than I would normally. I think this was the correct choice. The trainers fit me perfectly. No too big, not too tight. To be critical, the laces could have done with being another 10 or 15cm longer. They are long enough to tie but its not as easy as it would be if they were a little longer. Overall, Im very happy. They are light, comfortable and didn't need wearing in.

Great looking trainer . Comfortable. Would recommend going up half a size bigger .

Plastic support band on side is irritating to outside of foot.

Todo bien

Love the style, love how I feels them, perfect fit, great design

Ich habe schon mehrere Paare der klassischen Adiletten besessen und kann diese Schuhe sehr empfehlen. Sehr gut empfinde ich die Qualität und die Passform. Die Latschen sind angenehm zu tragen und halten auch bei täglicher Nutzung als Hausschuhe jahrelang. Ich benutze sie nur im Trockenbereich. Die frühere Generation war an der Innenseite der Oberlasche mit einem Stoff versehen, der sich mit Wasser vollsog und nur langsam trocknete. Beim aktuellen Modell wurde dieser jedoch durch einen Stoff ersetzt, der sich ein wenig wie Neopren anfühlt, Inwieweit dieser Stoff schneller trocknet oder Wasser gar gänzlich abweist, kann ich nicht sagen. Ich empfehle denjenigen, die die Latschen für den Nassbereich anschaffen wollen, das zuvor in Erfahrung zu bringen.

Fit perfectly. Amazingly comfortable. Worth every penny.
