We don't know for sure, but it's not hard to imagine given DaBaby's brief, but a memorable association with the brand, making it likely they were the first to come to his mind when he saw the shoe. In October 2020, he uploaded several photos on Instagram with an and matching shoes. During the music video of his 2019 hit 'Bop on Broadway', DaBaby was also seen for the team Charlotte Hornets.

If you are wondering if Adida is actually the singular for Adidas, the answer is - not it is not. Adidas is the name of the brand and doesn't have a variation for singular/plural. Nonetheless, it is a fun little easter egg to play with, if you want to be like DaBaby.
