The Adidas Company was first registered on August 18, 1949 and was named after its founder, Adolf Dassler, who combined the first letters of his first and last names to come up with "Adidas." The Adidas Group now produces sports gear and accessories for men, women and children and can be purchased at most major department stores, sporting good stores and general retail stores. Adidas watches only take a few steps to set correctly and are available in a wide variety of styles.
