The terrace silhouettes took over South African streetwear in the last two seasons and they have not slowed down. Samba OG, Gazelle Indoor and Handball Spezial are the three that matter, and all three sit on this rail from R1,300 — flat, low-profile, suede-and-gum, and easy to wear with almost anything.

The Samba OG is the sharpest and most formal of the three, with a slim toe and the classic T-toe overlay. The Gazelle Indoor is softer and rounder with a plusher suede upper, which reads more casual. Handball Spezial sits highest off the ground with the most cushioning and the widest colour range — it is the pick if the other two feel too flat.
All three run narrow and roughly half a size small. If you have a wide foot, take half a size up; if you are between sizes, size up rather than down. They break in quickly once the suede softens, but they never widen much.
Terrace shapes have decades of football-culture history behind them, which is why they keep selling after the trend cycle moves on. They also happen to be the cheapest way into a properly recognisable silhouette in this catalogue.
