Adidas’ Response to Valentine’s Day Ad Haters Sends Them Packing

The love you take is equal to the love you make.

For Valentine’s Day yesterday, Adidas posted a pretty adorable Instagram photo featuring a same sex couple wearing some of their shoes. Predictably, some folks couldn’t handle the sweetness of it all and went all aggro up in the comments section. Adidas’ response to those haters was perfectly succinct and maybe just a little bit sassy.

One commenter said they were going to Nike after seeing this ad, to which Adidas responded with simply a hand wave emoji and a kiss emoji. Nice. Well done, Adidas. And kudos on the cute ad.
