I believe they are Jox Sneakers. They were really popular in the 70's, I used to wear them. In the same time warp as Jordache jeans. "In" at the time, but then became kinda cheesy.

I remember all the different colored t-shirts with the large logo on the front.
They were "Nike" before there was a Nike.

OMG. I'm discussing '70's styles..... send help.

According to their web site, 1920 (!). The original designer's name was Adi Dassler - guess it's obvious where 'Adidas' came from.

Thumbs up Adidas
They are the only tennis shoes I wear. I'm trying to find some white and silver Millenium Sambas for a decent price. I've worn my others out.

Adidas is the brand with three stipes and from looking at the pic....they are not Adidas.
