Run DMC

Run DMC were probably the first big musical act to sport adidas products. They were the driving force behind the adidas jumpsuit craze of the 80's. They recorded a song called "My adidas" where they rap about their fabulous adidas shoes. Rockin' the shelltoes with no laces was also made popular by Run DMC. In an interview Run DMC said that adidas shoes were just so comfortable.

Limp Bizkit

Korn

Korn used to sport adidas quite extensively. Their lead singer was known to wear a sequined adidas jumpsuit [ pic 1 ] [ pic 2 ] on many an occasion. Korn even released a single entitled A.D.I.D.A.S. which, in the song, stands for "All Day I Dream About Sex". Many people believe that this is what adidas secretly stands for, but this is not true. For the story behind the name, check the FAQ page. It seems that Korn has moved on to puma now. They supposedly received a large sponsorship contract from puma and left adidas in the dust.
