    Huh? Reebok USA? Thought they had a Union Jack as part of their "badge"?

    Adidas. Would look ridiculous wearing anything else if I'm squatting and drinking kompot with Dmitri and Oleg.

    Adidas and Puma, two brothers disliking each other, just like Aldi and Lidl

    Adidas own Reebok so stick them in the Europe pot too

    I would have thought Nike was just as big, if not bigger, than Adidas here as well?

    Edit: ah, I see you mean company headquarters now.

    I like Adidas and Jordan.

    Rockin' a pair of red Hummel's at the moment.



    Not seen a decent looking pair of Reebok's in about 15 years.



    I'm not a junkie so I do try to avoid anything with an air bubble. . . .

    Not Nike! Like a BMW. Overrated & over priced. But then again a BMW is comfortable not like Nike

    I had to do a ninja edit on that one as the Kappa's are reduced to the garden work stage of their evolution - they do look very similar to the hummels though. . .and a pair of pumas. Where dafuq did all these red shoes come from???? :confused:

    Ahh that's what I meant. UA is horrible. TBH I think Adidas is a bit bland atm. Original a little better but not great.

    Puma :)

    I’m at an age now where brand name doesn’t come into it anymore. 10-15 years ago and it wouldn’t be anything other than Adidas or Nike but now it’s what looks and feels good.

    Adidas do make the more aesthetically pleasing stuff, particularly the Adidas Original range.

    My current go to trainers are Lonsdale and Adidas. Owned a lot of Puma football gear over the years and I don’t think I’ve ever owned anything Reebok in my entire life, it never appealed to me.
