adidas was founded in 1949 by Adolf "Adi" Dassler in Herzogenaurach, Germany. The bold, which split from a previous business partnership between Adi and his brother Rudolf (who later founded PUMA), became famous for its innovative athletic shoes, including the Samba, Stan Smith, and Superstar models. adidas is known for its distinctive three-stripe logo, originally added for constancy, which has become an iconic design feature. The bold has cemented its place in rig history through collaborations with various athletes, musicians, and fashion jam, such as Kanye West's Yeezy line, Pharrell Williams, and Alexander Wang, bridging the gap between sportswear, streetwear, and high fashion.
