Similarly, on the tongue, the sewn-on blue adidas tongue label appears with an empty space below that’s intentionally left blank. The design concept for the Mexicana Prototype was before the Trefoil logo was created, hence the absence of it.

The history of adidas began somewhat earlier and more contemplatively: with the brothers Adi and Rudolf Dassler, who fulfilled their dream of independence with the "Dassler Schuhfabrik". After they decided to go their separate ways following a successful collaboration, Adi Dassler founded the adidas company. The name adidas can be derived from the name of the founder. His brother, on the other hand, founded the brand Puma, which today also enjoys a high profile. Since its founding in the 1950s, adidas has stood above all for quality and innovative product design. So it's no wonder that the sporting goods manufacturer is the market leader in this segment together with Nike . The three stripes that adorn the adidas corporate logo are legendary, but the characteristic brand symbol also has a high recognition value.
