You'll have to show me specifically with pics because I'm not aware of Adidas being worse than nike as far as butchering classics goes. I do know that the retros being put out right now by Adidas are one to ones. Same mold, same leathers, same colors, etc.
Plus, my previous post NEVER mentioned the butchering of classics by Adidas or nike. My previous post DID mention how BAD I believe nike is at making the better designed shoes available and how they hype their product up.

THIS! Those and the Key Trainers are not even close to a one to one remake. I own both retros and was thoroughly disappointed. Especially with the Crazy 2.

Well from a visual standpoint, the shoes( KB8 II RETRO VS. OG ) are almost identical. I personally cant tell a difference. Maybe you can? However, from a technical/comfort standpoint if your talking about the Feet You Wear technology, than yes its not a one to one. FYW technology was not owned by Adidas. It was licensed by them. So because they don't own the rights, ANY retro shoe that had the FYW tech in them, will NEVER be a one to one.
To me, not making a one to one retro because of licensing is completely different than hyping a shoe up, only releasing it in one city, and then making it a raffle. Nike has done this over, and over, and over, etc.!!! Furthermore, when nike/jordan make their new retro shoes from pleather, when in fact they used high quality leather on originals and blatantly changing the shape of the whole entire shoe( III & IV ), how can you put Adidas in that argument? You obviously can, although I'm not sure to many educated people in the realm of footwear would listen.
