The adidas store in New York City is placed in the middle of Manhattan and was designed to stand out due to its highly central location.
The store's location in Manhattan sets it up for high expectations from consumers, and it certainly met its goals in its design. The interior of the store was designed to look like a stadium at an American high school – with live game viewing, locker rooms in place of changing rooms and areas in which customers can test out various adidas products. The store's shoe display is unsurprisingly large and offers many of the brand's designs.
This modern shoe store works to offer a functional space that is sports-themed through and through.
