There are some people who have always believed that ADIDAS stands for All Day I Dream About Sports, Adidas has never claimed that this is true. Rather, the word Adidas stands for Adi which is the nickname of Adolf and Das from the name Dassler. Adidas was formed from the names of the people who started the brand.
It is only natural that someone would like his/her name to be part of the brand. This brand has grown so much over the years. There are a lot of people who are familiar with Adidas. This is a brand that specializes in creating shoes but they have other products too.
