Adidas.


  Adidas, the silver medalist behind the well know Nike brand, Adidas is a very well-known company around the world and very popular so at the position they are at in the world being in second isn't all that bad after all. This brand is a sports clothing manufacturer founded in Germany and parent company of the Adidas Group, which consists of the Reebok Sportswear Company, Taylor Made-Adidas Golf Company, and Rockport, Inc. Without their specialized sports footwear (soccer cleats), Adidas also produces products such as bags, shirts, watches, eyewear, and goods for other spots such as basketball, volleyball, running, cricket, and etc. In Europe, Adidas is the largest manufacturing company in sportswear but in the whole global race it falls second behind Nike, Inc. Founded in 1948 by Adolf Dassler, following the split of Gebrüder Dazzler Schuhfabrik between him and his older brother Rudolf. Rudolf years later established the company well known as Puma, which was one of the early rival of Adidas. In 1949, Adidas is now currently home based in Herzogenaurach, Germany, as well as Puma. The company's clothing and shoe designs typically feature three parallel bars, and the same motif is incorporated into Adidas's current official logo. The "Three Stripes" were bought from the Karhu Sports in 1951. The company revenue for 2011 was listed at 11.99 billion in Euros now that’s a lot of money… in Europe of course.

Nike.


  

  Nike in today's time has become such a major global profit dynasty that it is literally every you go you see the swoosh logo. A long time ago it didn’t always used to be like that back in January 25, 1964 as Blue Ribbon Sports and was founded by Bill Bowerman and Phil Knight and would sell track shoes out of the trunks of their cars. A couple years later they decided to change the name to Nike, Inc. on May 30, 1978. The company takes its meaning from Nike, Greek goddess of victory. Now Nike markets its products under its own brand, as well as Nike Golf, Nike Pro, Nike+, Air Jordan, Nike Skateboarding. In adding to its sportswear and equipment, the company operates retail stores under the name Niketown, which this 5 story “mecca” for sneaker heads is located off of 6 East 57th Street, New York, NY they are also more locations such as San Francisco in Union Square and in Seattle. Nike also sponsors many high-profile athletes such as LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, Paul Rodriguez, and everyone’s favorite superstar Michael Jordan and many other sports teams around the world, with the highly recognized their trademark of these three words "Just Do It". Today they are the world's leading supplier of athletic shoes and apparel and a major manufacturer of sports equipment, with revenue in excess of US$24.1 billion in its fiscal year 2012 (That’s a lot of money!). As of 2012, it employed more than 44,000 people worldwide. The brand alone is valued at $10.7 Billion (wow...) making it the most valuable brand among sports businesses.
