One of Adidas' most popular lifestyle shoes over the last few years has been the NMD R1. With a Boost midsole and stretchy primeknit material on the upper, consumers have realized just how comfortable and stylish the shoe is. Various colorways of the model have come out so far so it only makes sense that Adidas would do everything in their power to make updates to its design and keep things fresh.
While Adidas has switched up the silhouette of the NMD, they've never switched up the look of the blocks that can be found on the side. Some models have writing on the bricks but this latest model goes far and beyond that. In a new colorway that came out today, Adidas added palm tree prints to the bricks, with a green and orange sunset in the background. Meanwhile, the rest of the colorway features a black upper and turquoise outsole which adds to the South Beach aesthetic.
If you're interested in trying out this brand new take on the NMD R1, hit up adidas.com where you can purchase the shoe right now for $130 USD.
