Adi was the nerdy introverted type doing all the engineering of the boots, while Rudolf was extroverted and looking over the business side. The two were constantly quarreling with each other though, up to the point, that the two decided to break up the family business. Rudolf Dassler left adidas and started Puma. Maybe we'll need to wait for the Puma stop motion ad to get this side of the story.:-) To add to the adidas story: Adi Dassler had a brother called Rudolf Dassler.
