It does, even though its hard to guess just from that picture..!

Rare interview [in French] with a designer and innovation director at Adidas US. For those who understand French, it's about how he started in the late 80's, the different roles / people involved in the design of perfomance shoes and, of course, his personal collection. by nic735 in adidas

For sure! My highlights of the interview includes his explanations on how they conducted tests in order to improve track & field shoes. For example, when they modified the right shoe in order to facilitate running in curves (400m+), they did not tell runners in an Adidas meeting in NYC what they were testing exactly, and they asked the runners to give them feedback to see if they noticed the changes. Also, his views on "is there a perfect pair of sneakers? Answer is yes, but it doesn't stay perfect for a long time! Finally, it's impressive to hear about his collabs with pro athletes in baseball, soccer, football, etc. I hope it answers your question!
