Seriously though let’s forget for a second who’s hawking these shoes, the sneakers are sooooo ugly by themselves. No sense of style, aesthetics, or design. Who is going to wear these and not feel like a goober?
Same people that vote for Trump without feeling like a goober, I’d imagine.
Let’s not forget how popular Kanye “I loooooooove Hitlerrrrrr” West’s shoes continue to be - and most of them look like the product of a 3-way between nanna’s teach cosy, a Tesla, and an inflatable life raft.
Yeezy shoes continue to make profit for Adidas because they’re produced cheap enough, but that’s not the same as Yeezy being popular anymore. Data: https://legitcheck.app/stats/yeezy/
The last link you shared showed 3% market share, and revenue dropping from 1.3-1.7bn to 568m in 2023.
Adidas are far more than just shoes - looking at a “premium” partnership with a musician on sub-brand for one of many categories they’re present in isn’t a super-representative snapshot.

It’s an easy way to identify the lower IQ/more gullible GOP members. (Quark would love and exploit this feature [RoA#74: Knowledge equals profit])
Low IQ GOP members is a redundancy - unless you’re an uber-wealthy direct beneficiary of their grifts.
MBS can order a million of these and not violate campaign finance laws.
FSB just put in an order for $380m of them

They’re certainly less popular, but are holding on to meaningful market share.
Do you have other data? Adidas does 13B business but the Yeezy sneakers contribute to 0.038% of that.

The 13B is just for sneaker sales but I see your point about the market share
