Adidas To Release Diego Maradona Shoes?
Images of an Adidas Maradona shoe have been doing the rounds on social media. Is Adidas set to release a shoe inspired by the legendary Argentinian No. 10?
The Greatest - Maradona - Adidas Handball Spezial - Customs Created By Dasslers Brothers
A tribute to Diego Maradona, the custom Adidas shoes are based on the "Light Blue / Cloud White / Gum 5" Adidas Handball Spezial sneakers. They come with various references to Maradona.

The boots are referencing the year he lifted the world cup on one heel and a custom trefoil on the other, the rear is finished with his autograph. Gold lettering can be seen on each side, whilst a custom tongue label is also featured.
Standard retail version of the shoes
Now we have to partly disappoint you. The custom Adidas Diego Maradona is not made by Adidas but has been created by Dasslers Craft. They are available to purchase in their online store, however.
Based in Exeter, England, Dasslers Craft is a company founded by Elliot who started customizing his own shoes around three years ago. Today Dasslers Craft creates customized by request, with a shoe taking about 6-8 weeks to be ready.
All designs can usually be slightly amended for personal preference if required.
The price of the custom Maradona Adidas Handball Spezial is £150.00. If you are sending in my own pair the price is £75.00 less.
Adidas would be not allowed to release Diego Armando Maradona-branded shoes as the Argentinian has had an exclusive contract with Puma.
