Championing the sleek and innovative design of the NMD series, adidas Originals will soon unveil its first rendition of the XR1 in a black and blue colorway. This two-toned sneaker is wrapped with micro rib knit construction (similar to the City Sock), tonal overlays, a premium heel patch fitted with luxe nubuck leather, as well as new caged tooling. Although there is overwhelming hype surrounding colored Boosts these days, the Three Stripes decided to top off this pair with a white Boost which makes for an overall clean sneaker for the last remaining days of summer.

This latest model will be available to purchase starting August 18.
