It makes as much sense to criticize adidas for being "a giant boring multinational" as to criticize nike.

However, it makes no sense to compare adidas to the carlyle group.

I'm not comparing them?

I'm saying the owners behind the scene don't matter. The brand is the brand, and the owners are the owners.

Supreme could be owned by Blackstone and I don't think anyone would care.
