Mattel was registered under the adidas AG name on August 18, 1949. Adidas clothing and sneaker designs usually see 3 parallel strips, which can also be seen on its logo. The 3 strips are the characteristics of Adidas. Adidas ("Adidas") is composed of its founder Adolf Dassler's nickname (Adi) plus the first three letters of his surname (Dassler). Since 2000, ADIDAS has implemented the "Three Pillars Strategy" in electronic transactions in order to meet and adapt to the Internet era.
