You know your shoe brand will be irrelevant in a couple years when your biggest run came off of a shoe designed by a rapper transitioning into the fashion industry

I've always preferred Adidas to Nike, but they both have their strong points. I think Nike has better basketball gear, obviously. Air force 1's are nice. Adidas has more comfortable and breathable shoes. Nice shorts and nice fitted pants.

Adidas tends to have fairer prices but they are both overpriced, obviously. Meanwhile Puma has some nice pants and sweats. Even Reebok has some really nice shirts.

The nicest tapered shorts I own are by Head, though. It's a tennis brand, but if you find any then they are usually very good quality. Better than Adidas or Nike.

According to my 16 year old niece Addidas is a very popular brand with "da yoof" of today. I don't think I've worn addidas since I was 16 lol. I had the addidas shoes with the torsion bar.

OP must live under a rock or something. Adidas have been killing it the last few years, particularly in the "hypebeast" sneaker game.

It really is.

Nike is just gaudy and ugly most of the time IMO, like they try and look "futuristic" I'm guessing.

Thing is I don't think that one day in the future people are just gonna abandon all sense of class (which is what Adidas has).

That's why I wear Adidas, because it's understated, not all this stupid flashy bull****, foam shoes for $180 etc..

That's the other thing I hate about Nike, the materials are getting cheaper and cheaper, yet prices keep going higher and higher.

It's literally for brand loyal cucks who don't care how much they spend to dress tacky as long as it has the swoosh logo.
The billionaire and the beggar both have 24 hours in a day.

That's why grandma's apple pie rocks and yours sucks.

Nike is much bigger than Adidas. Adidas stock is worth more because it owns a load of other brands or some chit. Nike sales dwarf Adidas.

Although Adidas has become a lot more popular recently, I think Nike will always be #1.

Adidas pisses me off because the only nice shoes aka the ultra boost triple black sells out instantly. I think thats why ur not seeing anyone rock adidas op cause not everyone is willing to buy from a reseller for $350+ for a pair of shoes...

Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit softly.

Just went to the adidas store and it was poverty as ****. Shoes were nice, but not better than NIKE. Clothes were absolutely brutal. The only good thing they had was the windbreaker pants/jackets.
