πŸ“œ Key Milestones

Adi Dassler founded Adidas in 1949 in Herzogenaurach, Germanyβ€”the same town where his brother Rudolf founded rival Puma. The company's partnership with Kanye West on the Yeezy line, launched in 2015, became one of the most successful celebrity collaborations in fashion history before Adidas terminated the relationship in 2022 over antisemitic remarks. CEO BjΓΈrn Gulden, who joined from Puma in 2023, has led a rapid turnaround.

πŸ’‘ Did You Know?

The Adidas-Puma rivalry began as a family feudβ€”Adi and Rudolf Dassler were brothers who split their shared shoe company after World War II, dividing the town of Herzogenaurach into two camps. The Yeezy termination initially cost Adidas over €1 billion in revenue, but the company has recovered faster than expected.

πŸ“ Analyst Take

BjΓΈrn Gulden has injected energy and pragmatism into Adidas after years of strategic drift. The Samba and Gazelle retro sneaker trend has been a windfall, but Adidas needs to prove it can sustain momentum beyond the current terrace-shoe cycle.
