Pharrell and adidas Originals Go Green on Latest NMD Hu
Complete with embroidered Vietnamese characters on the toebox.
For Pharrell and adidas, the final few months of 2020 have served as a time to reintroduce the OG NMD Hu to market after spending the last few years on the beefed-up NMD Hu Trail. Now, the two are back again with one final Hu before the year closes: a lively green colorway. Originally releasing in limited quantities earlier in December, this green-hued Hu is now set for its global retail debut.
A rich green shade covers the entirety of the flexible Primeknit upper, and embroidered Vietnamese characters that translate to — you guessed it once again — “Human Race” in English reach from the toebox up to the throat. A significantly lighter green is introduced into the mix on the silver-flecked laces, midfoot cage and heel piece, the last of which swaps the left shoe’s adidas Originals branding for a Pharrell hit.
The two shades of green meet once again on the full-length BOOST midsole, with light green bricks providing contrast against a darker green BOOST backdrop. Simple green outsoles and black insoles with a familiar anatomy graphic finalize the look.
This Pharrell x adidas Originals NMD Hu will release via the adidas webstore on December 23, and is priced at $220 USD.
