MEGA New Miami Adidas Ultraboost🔥 - The Shoe and Nike/Adidas Thread.

This dip**** is telling us to make a comparison ON FANATICS.

Nope.

I compare the actual materials. This is why I stopped buying adidas, it has gotten worse over the past 5 years. About 5 or 6 years ago, I bought a green polo and an orange polo from adidas that are among the favorite polos I've ever had, from either company. Since then, adidas has fallen off the map.

When I was in the hospital, I asked my wife to bring me a couple of polo shirts. I described them to her, though she really has no idea about this stuff. She brought me two polo shirts from a couple of years ago that have some weird-*** rubberized striping on the sleeves. The newer shirts were a much tighter fit, and meanwhile I've purchased the same size shirts from adidas for a decade.

I just wore the older adidas polo to a work event yesterday. Fits great. Looks great.

I don't know what adidas changed, I just know it's different. For the last year, I've been buying Columbia polos, Tommy Bahama polos, Cutter & Buck polos, Champion polos, and Colosseum polos. Every single one of those brands looks and fits better than adidas does.

And **** all this "Nike loyalists" bull****. They make better product. Period.

I hit the raffle on the Undefeated Jordan 4 earlier this year, and I hit the raffle on the Solefly "Fruits of our Labors" Jordan 3 a few weeks ago. That's all I really need. I had those discounted Miami Adizero running shoes in my Fanatics cart a few days ago, and I couldn't go through with it. I realized it would be yet another pair of Miami adidas shoes that I never wear.

I'm done with adidas. Even if it takes us another decade to get back to Nike (right after Messi finally retires), I can't buy this adidas **** any longer.

I was looking at their CFP polo on miamihts or CanesWear, and I couldn't pull the trigger knowing the logo would either peel or it wouldn't be true to size.

The last piece of UM gear I bought was a zip wind breaker from Hollister. Cause it fit perfectly. And the design is dope.
Last year my wife bought me a UM hoodie from Hollister, it's the most comfortable hoodie I've ever owned and it fits true to size unlike Adidas.

Adidas is a crapshoot in sizing. And with other brands like Rhobeck(?), Homefield, Hollister/Abercrombie/AE/Old Navy, etc., getting NCAA licenses, then you don't really have to go with adidas anymore.

the Abercrombie fan gear is way better than anything Adidas put out
 
how individuals who watch this sport religiously like I know many of you do can’t spot the difference between when a Nike school is playing and an adidas school is playing truly blows my mind. When watching Nike schools play you will never see:

Crooked numbers
Pads popping out regularly
Pants are not properly fitted (material issue)
Wrinkled jerseys (material issue)


I understand why fans care about fan gear as that is what you will be wearing many days of the year. But all I care about is jersey execution. Nike/Jordan is first ballot HOF in that category. Adidas is in triple A

I would deal with the **** fan gear if the on field uni's were properly made.

I like Adidas but this is trash smh they gotta fix the stripes down the pants before next season. I think they need to get rid of the stripes completely or just cut it off half way like the early 2000s unis…. much better look.
 
Anybody order any of the CFP stuff from the team store? I preordered the quarter zip and a hat but haven’t gotten anything on shipping (expected on the 12th) and both have disappeared from the site lol. Haven’t seen the quarter zip anywhere else either so curious if it even exists.

I didn’t even know there was a quarter zip available. Is it Adidas? And what site did you see it on?
 
Adidas is so frustrating to order. I buy the same polo, same size, but in 3 different colors and at least one of them is longer than the others. No rhyme or reason.

I’m about to order a couple peter Millar hoodies that have a simple look to them. I’m good with that until we go back to Nike.
 
In hand!

I bought two of the same Aeroready shirts just different graphic designs. Each shirt was an XL. One fit like a compression shirt and the other was loose, bordering on XXL. It's why I hesitate to buy any Adidas fan gear.
