I called adidas and they said the return didn’t meet their expectations

I completely forgot about this thread.

I realize It's been a while, but for Informative purposes, what was their exact response?

sorry i totally forgot about this
after i sent the shoes to adidas from what i remember there wasnt much communication, whenever i went to speak on live chat they always just told me the return is being processed which took way longer than it shouldve, i called them after a few weeks and i found out that the shoes i returned are being sent back to me as they didnt pass the return stage for some reason, i made a paypal case saying i got the wrong item and after like 2 weeks paypal requested for me to send back the shoes, i got my refund a few days later

That's totally fine with your delayed response, no Issue whatsoever.

Judging by your reply, I'd say Adidas has certain guidelines that they must adhere to when receiving returns. Yours must've failed to meet their requirements. The main thing Is, you've received the refund.
