So from that date on, this logo has been reserved for its "Adidas originals" collection and was replaced in the other releases by the Adidas Performance logo, the iconic image of its 3 mountain-shaped stripes.
With this Adidas Originals has managed to preserve its sports fashion styles with references to the decades between the 40's and 80's while maintaining a distinctively retro old school feel.
