Me and My Adidas Originals Photo Contest

Me and My adidas Originals Photo Contest

Calling all photographers and lomo enthusiasts out there!

Celebrate Originality by sending a photo of yourself decked out in Adidas Originals gear and flaunting the 3 stripes from head to toe.
Adidas will be hooking up the top two contestants with a year’s supply of kicks - that’s a fresh pair every month so you can rock the stripes in true Originals fashion.

    I was so ready to start shooting, but this clause stopped me dead in my tracks. There’s no way I would join a contest with this rule, and I would strongly discourage others from joining because of this.

    Throw that one rule out the window, and I would start shooting like crazy.

    Hi Luis,

    I purposely highlighted that particular clause so that those who’d want to join will be warned ;-)

    It’s really unfair for photographers because this kind of rule is subject for abuse by the organizer

    Hello,

    This is the Esoteric Media team, which is handling the contest for adidas. After much discussion, the company has decided to remove the exclusive property clause in the mechanics. Kindly check out adidasoriginalsph.multiply.com for updates. Feel free to spread the word.

    We’d like to thank you all so much for your concerns and opinions. Kindly e-mail esotericmedia@gmail.com if there’s anything else we can do for you. Looking forward to your entries! 4 more days to go!
