    So I thought I would offer this to the board. Now through 10/18, I have a special 50% off discount on all gear at the employee store.

    I thought if anyone would like to take advantage, I would be willing to set up a meeting time where I can get everyone who would like, in. Would need to be a weekend though and not this weekend.

    If anyone is interested post it and I will make it happen. :)

    I would love that, but Adidas is pretty lose with their pass to go shopping at their employee store. You can just send us a electronic copy of the pass and it will work for everyone at their own time. Just a thought. But I would like to go in if you can spare a copy of the pass.

    They've been getting more stingy with passes. I hope to get one when I go to Portland this winter.

    Not on this one per the info I have. I have to show an employee ID or a pay stub in order to get in. I've been informed I can have family and friends with me, but if no one has an Albina ( my company) employee verification, then no one gets in.

    If you actually wear the shoes...Adidas is way better made than Nike....they last about 3 times as long too...Nike's soles wear out like warm chewing gum

    Worst running shoes ever. You will notice most long distance runners dont use Nike unless they are sponsored by them.

    Sure, they have great designs. But in terms of functionality for running, they suck.

    Orion Bailey, I would like to take advantage of your kind offer. With a little notice, I can make it anytime in the next 10 days, including next weekend.

    If you already have the 5 max people, put me on a waiting list.

    And thanks to everyone contributing in this thread with their Nike vs Adidas comparisons. I have never worn Adidas. I usually buy my shoes at the Nike factory store on MLK. I noticed I have been going there more often lately, because they fall apart so fast. I would like to give Adidas a try. Maybe old dogs can learn new tricks.

    The access is unlimited, so if more than five people would like to take advantage, we can set up time frames. Let 5 people in, and then a next set of 5, say half hour or 45 minutes later or something. Or maybe one weeknight and one weekend, to make it easier on those with conflicting schedules.

    The Boost cusion on Adidas shoes are amazing, I highly suggest to anyone who has never tried it, especially on the Ultraboost model. It's a hit or miss if they carry it or not. But when they do have it in stick, for 90 dollars, it's simple one of the most comfortable shoes you will ever experienced.

    I am available any time on weekend and after 6pm on weekday evening.. I work in Tualatin.
