Video // adidas : Why We Work Here

July 21st 2012 | 32 comments

words // Nick DePaula

We often get a closer look at the products and athletes that represent the adidas brand, but what about the people who pour in countless hours at The Village?

In this video recently produced by the adidas Careers division, employees from all sectors of the brand tell us what they love about working for The Three Stripes and what excites them most about Portland, where the company has long called home in the US.

Check out the quick-paced video below, as adidas Originals PLM Marcus Smith, Basketball designer Thomas Harding, Global Director of Basketball Apparel Travis Blasingame, Originals Merchandising Manager Brian Bachelor and many more all chime in.
