According to "Sneaker Wars", they fell out because of a throwaway comment from Adi:

One night in the early 1940s, as Allied forces rained explosives on Bavarian soil, the shoe- making brothers Adi and Rudi Dassler, both married and in their 40s, took to the cellar with their families for refuge. "Here are the bloody bastards again," Adi reportedly snapped. Rudi believed the invective was aimed at him and his family. Adi insisted that he was referring to the planes above.
