A way from attaining mainstream popularity about Adidas NMD
While it may seem like any silhouette that Adidas adds a Boost adidas nmd sko sole to will become popular, the Three Stripes’ collaboration with Pharrell Williams are over and above in terms of design.
The original NMD was a blockbuster when it first dropped, but now seems overhyped and overdone after the follow-up NMD adidas nmd r1 R2 failed to gain the same attention from sneakerheads. However, the Pharrell x adidas NMD Human Race collab has received a steady string of releases – but without an oversaturation of new colourways and announcements.
The Adidas NMD adidas nmd xr1 Hu Trail, pictured above, is a drop from the collaboration that matches a clean colourway to the silhouette. Right in time for a spring wardrobe refresh, this one is set to release on February 23.
Still a way from attaining mainstream popularity, the tech-focused Adidas adidas nmd primeknit Futurecraft 4D has all the makings of a blockbuster. While you probably haven’t seen one of these in the wild yet, releases are becoming more frequent as Adidas carefully avoids cannibalising sales of its other high-end sneakers, particularly those with Boost soles.
Retailing for around $373, the “Ash Green” colourway dropped this month. Keep an eye on this one as the release schedule picks up momentum throughout the year.
