Adidas is a world renowned German sports apparel company best known for their athletic shoes (second only to Nike.)  The company was founded in the 1920's by Adolf Dossler. 

Jesse Owens and Muhammad Ali both broke records in their Adidas athletic shoes, and Adidas has been the official match ball supplier for every FIFA World Cup tournament since 1970.  When West Germany won the World Cup in 1954 they wore Adidas shoes.  They were the first shoes made with replacable studs, giving West Germany a distinct advantage over heavily favored Hungary and is a much repeated and loved story in Germany today.

Silhouette is the licensed manufacturer of Adidas Eyeglasses.

Silhouette was founded in 1964 by Arnold and Anneliese Schmied and, today, is known as Silhouette International Schmied.  Headquartered in Linz, Austria, Silhouette has thirteen distribution subsidiaries and sells its products in over ninety countries.  The company is family owned and managed by Klaus Schmeid, Arnold Schmeid and Tassilo Gruber.  More than 1700 people are employed by Silhouette, 900 of them at the Linz headquarters.
