adidas Readies the NMD S1 for Summertime
A “Cream White” base invites an assortment of colors to join it.
In its ninth year on the market, the adidas NMD series is still going strong. Recently, the Three Stripes tapped Japanese streetwear label NEIGHBORHOOD for a collaboration on the NMD S1 and a unique boot version of the silhouette while also ushering in another iteration of the shoe — the NMD W1. While the design may not hold the same power it once did, there’s no denying it plays a key role in adidas Originals’ lifestyle offerings each year.
Now, as the NMD S1 continues to shine, adidas has prepared a new summertime-ready colorway. Kicking things off, the shoe starts with a knit upper containing yearn with at least 50% Parley Ocean Plastic and 50% recycled polyester. This knit primarily carries the colorway’s leading “Cream White” hue — a soft off-white that is joined by hits of red around the collar and at the Three Stripes. The midfoot looks to reveal the shoe’s interior with the aforementioned “Cream White” and a crisp green joining red at the Three Stripes on each side. Supporting the sneaker, a matching off-white midsole carries blue TPU plugs and is backed by a gum rubber outsole to complete this look.
Adding to adidas’ releases scheduled for July 1, this NMD S1 colorway is set to launch at 3am EDT via adidas and select retailers at a price of $200 USD on July 1.
For more of the latest updates within the always-busy footwear industry, BAPE is continuing its celebration of its 30th anniversary by teaming up with adidas on brown colorway of the Campus 80.
