Adidas
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- Lol, I wore mine until like 2012? Styled with tight low rise jeans and either high top Adidas or I would fold my jean bottom and put on leather riding boots.
- I found a lot of western brands had Japan exclusive designs like Adidas, NorthFace and Vans
- Adidas has some of the nicest stuff. Before I went to the employee store in Portland I never gave them a thought. Since then I make the two hour drive once a month or so. Surprisingly they have a lot of understated stuff.
- I go to the outlets and use Nike/UA/Adidas/Puma (whatever is on sale) and is moisture wicking.
- However high intensity stuff like actually running, or sports, they arent as comfortable as good quality adidas / nike.
Cons
- Adidas are pretty poor
- My Salomon and Norda shoes have all exceeded at least 700km of running and "untracked" walks, my Adidas road shoes probably won't get much passed 500km.
- In 2021 there was a widespread Chinese boycott against global fashion brands like H&M, Nike and Adidas after they expressed concern over alleged human rights abuses in Xinjiang province.
- Adidas is horse manure right now, everything is flimsy AF, see through, smelling fufu, not comfy at all. It’s a shame because many older adidas stuff was pretty well made back in the days.
- is it okay to pair black Doc Martens boots with adidas black sweatpants?
