The best of Spezial - Manchester, Newrad & New Order

We'd like to start by wishing everyone a happy new year, 2021, surely it must be better than the last!? We're kicking the year off in style with three of the Spezial highlights from last year - the Newrad, Wilsy X New Order and the highly popular Manchester 89.

SPZL has another crack at the Manchester

It's been four years since the launch of the GT Manchester and Manchester MRN, so the Spezial team have decided we need another. This pair is clearly a hybrid between the two, with colours from both pairs prominent.

These sold out very quickly on release - ours probably will too so it's one pair per customer. As usual these weren't sourced at UK retail price. We've tried to keep the price as low as possible - without giving too much away we make less on these 'hype' pairs than a lot of our standard stock.

Restock on Newrad

Part of the first Spezial launch this Autumn, the Newrad have been a big hit with those looking for something a bit smarter. Following in the footsteps of the Garwen and Super Tobacco, the Newrad have an all suede upper and Bermuda gum sole.

And finally.. New Wilsy

Big emphasis on the new! Launched as part of a collaboration with Manchester band New Order, the Wilsy are back with this all leather version. The originals were New Order frontman Bernard Summers' favourite trainer to wear on tour, so it's no surprise these were his shoe of choice for their collaboration project.
