adidas honors football heritage and terrace culture with its new Spezial F.C. collection. On offer this time are the Aston Villa, Newcastle United, and Celtic pairs, each with their own take on the Roelee Spezial silhouette. The lines will launch in select club stores throughout mid-October.

Inspired by Newcastle United’s black-and-white colors, the Newcastle United Spezial F.C. version features clean white stitching and gold accents. A light-blue tongue with black and gold stripes harkens back to some of the club’s most iconic crests, while translucent bone foxing and a textured sole round out the terrace-ready shoe.

The Celtic Spezial F.C. pair plays with the Glasgow club’s heritage green colors in various shades, while bringing suede elements and branding together throughout. A white Ecotex tongue, dark translucent foxing, and both white and yellow laces round out the pack.

The Aston Villa Spezial F.C. model on the other hand is nodding more to the club’s claret-and-blue palette as well as vintage adidas Rhodes sneakers. The styles feature a smooth Ecotex tongue with yellow branding, flocked stripes, and a light gum sole.

Across the board the sneakers are further decked out with gold-foil insignias, branded footbeds, and additional laces.

Release Date & Where To Buy

The trio will drop October 16–17, with the Newcastle and Aston Villa styles launching October 16 and the Celtic Spezial F.C. coming October 17, through adidas.com and select retailers.
