Adidas U Path Run Review
Let’s start this review with some interesting Adidas trivia. Let’s look at the famous and simplistic Adidas logo. The company is known for having three stripes in their logo. Even the company’s founder Adolf Dassler described Adidas as "The three stripes company" but do you know the whole history behind that logo? Those three parallel lines?
Well, back in 1949, the Finnish sports brand Karhu Sports sold the three stripe trademark to Adidas for what today are the equivalent of €1,600 Euros and two bottles of Whiskey. Yes, that’s right. One of the most famous logos in history is an acquired logo, and that purchase cost Adidas a measly 1600 Euros and 2 bottles of Whiskey.
But now, in the 201st century, the Three Stripes trademark was even referenced in Lady Sovereign’s song Hoodie, and reportedly she’s a huge fan of the company till this very day.
However, the subject of this review is Adidas U Path Run sneaker, and hope that you’ll enjoy it.
