About adidas

The vision of company founder Adolf Dassler has long become reality, and his corporate philosophy the guiding principle for successor generations. The idea was as simple as it was brilliant. Adi Dassler’s aim was to provide every athlete with the best possible equipment. It all began in 1920, when Adi Dassler made his first shoes using the few materials available after the First World War.

The adidas name dates back to 1948, deriving from the first two syllables of Adi Dassler’s first and last name. One year later, Adi Dassler registered the Three Stripes as a trademark. After a period spanning almost 70 years, the Dassler Family withdrew from the company in 1989, and the enterprise was transformed into a corporation ("Aktiengesellschaft"). French-born Robert Louis-Dreyfus was Chairman of the Executive Board from April 1993 to March 2001. It was he who initiated adidas’ flotation on the stock market in November 1995. adidas--a name that stands for competence in all sectors of sport around the globe. Today, the adidas product range extends from shoes, apparel and accessories for basketball, soccer, fitness and training to adventure, trail and golf.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good product, but..., March 3, 2009

I understand from my fellow TKD classmates that the Adidas shin guards are durable and protective, however, I did not know that the sizing is a bit off. I purchased according to the measurements provided, which was perfect, but the elastic band that fastens around the calf was way too small. I do not have large calf muscles, so I was disappointed. I sent them back and will try the next larger size in hopes that they won't be too long and there is more material for the band. Jury is out on that on yet. By the way, the merchant's instructions for returns are poor. They provide no information other than to send them an e-mail. So, I sent them an e-mail after I mailed them (to meet the whopping 10-day return policy) only to find out that I needed to include an RMA number. I will be contacting them shorty to either get my money back or ensure the larger size is on it's way.

I read that this item runs small, so although I usually wear a small in mens' tshirts, I ordered a medium shin guard. I'm a 5'6" woman with 16" circumference calves, and they fit, but very snugly. That suits me since I play hard in them, but if you don't want them to be tight you may want to go another size up.
