Is adidas terrex underrated as an outdoors brand? I just never really considered them as an option because I just assumed that their stuff was shit because they are mostly an athletics brand but I got some of their stuff for running trails and I'm actually pretty happy with it. I wouldn't pay full price for any of it but their stuff constantly goes on sale so you can get it at least half price. I used to wait for Patagonia shit to go on sale like once a year or get REI's in-house brand but they have been jacking up prices.I only tried basic stuff like shirts and pants so far but I was also wondering if their shoes and jackets are any good. Their warmer jackets use primaloft which I know some people don't like as much as down but I never wore anything with it.
adidas is a fashion brand
>>2863291>wearing a bump cap from work when you're /out/Why?
>>2863334Yes. Adidas knows nothing about trailrunning and hiking, it’s made for larpers. Real trailrunners wear leather boots, surplus flecktarn cargo pants and thick wool ponchos. Everyone knows this.
>>2863291If you get it on sale, yeah. They started of as shit but just kept at it, and by now most of their stuff is pretty good.I still don't buy it, I usually try buying things made in the EU. But objectively their stuff is fine.As far as trail shoes go, they're a lot better then the shit Nike, Hoka and Salomon pump out (the road unning brands are even worse).
>>2863291Support small specialized brands and not gigantic, evil mega-corporations.
>>2863363small specialized brands are giga expensive
>>2863370I feel like a lot of the "smaller independent" places use that as an excuse to fuck you over too. Like an in person art store I went to wouldn't price match their own website for me. Ridiculous enough to charge more in store but even more to not price match. I just said fuck it and ordered it off Amazon.
>>2863370Not true. I'm not talking about boutique shit.
