About this ebook
Nike vs Adidas chronicles the captivating rivalry between two sportswear giants, born from a German family feud, that reshaped the sports industry and popular culture.

This intense competition fueled product innovation and brand building, impacting everything from athletic apparel design to our understanding of sports marketing.
The book unfolds chronologically, beginning with the Dassler family's shoemaking origins and the subsequent split that created Adidas and Puma. It then examines Adidas' early Olympic success, followed by Nike's explosive entry into the market. Later chapters focus on specific aspects of their competition, such as technological innovations, marketing battles, and the cultural impact of their brands.
Ultimately, Nike vs Adidas provides valuable insights into business strategy and the power of branding, while also addressing ongoing debates about labor practices within the sportswear industry.
