Earlier this century, Reebok sued Nike for patent infringement over the Swoosh’s Adidas honey moon boots. The loss of that battle in court was probably best for the Vector brand, though, as it forced RBK back to the drawing board where they eventually dreamed up the wildly popular Очень комфортные широкие спортивные штаны adidas. And while the look of its bottom is something like Zig x Free, the adidas ClimaCool Ride is likely free from legal recourse thanks to the fact that Three Stripes owns the Reebok brand. And there seems to be a bit more Nike in here too, with the side panel stripes taking on a look that’s reminiscent of the multitude of Flywire-equipped runners we’ve seen. Pretty interesting to see a shoe that, on paper, is very similar to some key trademarked design elements and yet, it the end result is a look and feel all its own.
