what is the rationale behind several major brands online only
allowing delivery within the USA only? case in point would be adidas,
but there are many such examples. doesn't it defeat the purpose of being
online
or am i forgetting some tariff issue/trade agreement ?

In many cases, retailers are only authorised to market a particular
manufacturer's products within a certain geographical area. This
allows manufacturers to apply different pricing to different markets.
