Shopping at Adidas.com US Site

Has anyone successfully been able to purchase something from Adidas.com with paypal or a credit card? They seem to have the most strict geo-blocking protocols I have ever come across.

They only ship within the US and my mail forwarder has been informed by Adidas that they cannot buy items for purposes of international shipment so I have to buy it and have it sent to the forwarder address.

I have used 3 different credit cards (all Aust billing), tried every paypal trick and also used Hola VPN with no luck.

I am out of ideas and am desperate to make a decent saving for something I have wanted for a while!

Any help appreciated.

    Not with Adidas (with true religion), I've come across a situation where the forwarding address was banned due to being a known forwarder and that would cause an error when trying to pay. Perhaps the same thing is happening here.

    I assume it's a combination of your card and IP.

    Go to popular fashion forums like SuFu, Hypebeast or StyleForum.

    Get a proxy there for a minimum fee from one of the members

    Member bought the items, sent to his/her house then forwarded to your residence directly or to the freight forwarders.

    One of those said proxies is www.sutocorp.com

    I bought stuff from Adidas US and had it shipped to my cousins house. Used an Australian card, no VPN, nothing.
    But this was late last year so they might have already changed.

    Had the same problem with Asics, try their eBay us shop.

      Thanks! The shoes I want are there but the 30% off code is not valid.

    I have had good luck purchasing from geo restricted sites (Have not tried Adidas.com though). I just use a VPN service and hook up to a server in the country the company is based in.
