Nope, not adidas. We’ve covered the Sears Winner and Winner II lines in the past and you can see a bunch of old Sears sneaker ads here. The Sears Winner line of sneakers confusingly bounced back and forth between 3 and 4 stripe logos and from what we have seen it probably had to do with these sneakers being manufactured by both Converse and adidas at different points in time. The skateboard in this ad was called the Hobie ‘Hotdogger’ and this ad is from 1978.
