What's new

Donovan’s first signature colorway available

You're probably a Puma guy....
Not sure what that means. I don’t wear any of these shoes. The only thing Puma I have is a pair of pants I got in 1999, which I still wear to this day!
 
For anyone that doesn't know puma and Adidas were both founded by brothers in Germany. Originally they both founded Adidas and then they had a falling out and the other brother founded puma. They are, or were at least, both headquarted in a small town not far from Nuremberg (near Erlangen I believe) in Germany. Trivia: Adidas is a portmanteau of the founder's name Adi (short for Adolf) Dassler (at least I think it was Dassler, something like that).

As a result the "proper" pronunciation of Adidas is

Ah-dee-dahss

With the emphasis on the Ah.

Adidas now has additional Red/Blue DON 1's. Found them after searching for the Venom's, which I can only find on the resale market. Interestingly enough, there's a site in Taiwan which is advertising all 4 models. Wondering if the shoes dropped internationally before the U.S. or if it's just pre-release and the shoes will ship after they get theirs. But they were also advertising Venom's. Perhaps they're counting on a 2nd production run from Adidas.
