About Adidas Original

A solid, dark monochrome trefoil (three-lobed leaf) silhouette sits above three narrow horizontal bars that cut across the lower part of the trefoil. Below the symbol is a flowing, hand-drawn cursive wordmark reading “Adidas Originals” with a small “1949” tucked under the final stroke.

The composition is a stacked mark: bold, flat symbol on top and a vintage-style, script logotype beneath. The entire mark is rendered in a single very dark purple/near-black tone on a white background.
