Speculation as to why Adidas would keep paying Derrick Rose

SI:

Adidas repeatedly declined to invoke its reduction provision. While Adidas was under no obligation to pay Rose less money, it’s unclear why the publicly-traded company would not do so when presented with the opportunity. Adidas’ decision-making is especially hard to understand given Rose’s off-court controversies, which included a highly publicized civil trial for alleged sexual assault.

The company may be concerned that reducing Rose’s payments could cause its other endorsed athletes to question the company’s loyalty to its players. Yet, as Wertheim writes, Adidas terminated its deal with Boston Celtics guard Terry Rozier last December merely because he wore a pair of Nike sneakers in a pregame shootaround.

...

Rose and his representatives negotiated for Adidas to pledge up to $165,000 a year worth of Adidas sneakers and other products in support of AAU team(s) of Rose’s choice. The company also agreed to provide up to $50,000 worth of sneakers and other products to high school(s) of Rose’s choice.

Of course, Adidas could have also benefited from such arrangements. As suggested by the college basketball criminal case involving Adidas officials, sneaker companies view AAU basketball as a way of steering star players towards college programs that are also associated with the sneaker company and with particular NBA agents.

Adidas Love / Hate soccer cleats

Adidas:

adidas has launched a dramatic limited edition re-design of the adizero f50 as part of the #ThereWillBeHaters collection: the new adizero f50 Tattoo Pack.

The design of the adizero f50 Tattoo Pack represents the creativity and self-expression that only the very best players are capable of. The left and right boots feature separate motifs that bring to life the themes of "love" and "hate". The right boot features a menacing black skull motif emphasising strength, power and hatred. The left boot is designed with bright colours and diverse designs including a rose design that symbolise a player's love of the game.
