The World Cup is over, and Argentina is still reeling from the crushing Finals loss at the hands of Spain, but no amount of second-place shame will dampen Lionel Messi’s star power. As the international superstar takes his rest time before returning to Miami and the MLS, adidas is still pumping out new Messi collab sneaker colorways, continuing a massive push for Leo’s final World Cup appearance.
The adidas Handball Spezial Messi Black Silver is the latest Messi-themed colorway on a classic silhouette, starting with a black suede base. The PE colorway pops with silver medal metallic accents on the Three Stripes, with red barely visible on the backing.
The heel tab adds soft black leather that brings more red background color to the mix. The outsole brings more black to the Raiders-friendly colorway, with another bit of silver on the Messi side panel logo, heel tab branding, and the Leo tongue tag.
The adidas Handball Spezial Messi Black Silver will be released Fall 2026 through adidas and select retailers in-store and online. Available in unisex sizing, the retail price is set at $120. For all the latest Messi adidas news and drop info, download the Sole Retriever App.
