Having already unwrapped the CS City Sock with new Gum soles, adidas Originals is giving the ever-popular NMD_R1 PK the same clean, classic look. The lifestyle sneaker follows in the City Socks footsteps, so to speak, with the same Gum outsoles set against a clean black or white upper made of Primeknit. The only differences between the mid- and low-tops are the EVA plugs found in the midsole — the City Sock iteration have both matching the upper, while the NMD_R1 will have white plugs for both black and white versions.

When the colorway is so solid, your only real question is: mid-top aesthetic, or low-top casual? Stay tuned for a release date on the NMDs to follow shortly.
