adidas Originals NMD Color Boost Collection

The newest addition to the ever-expanding Boost family, the adidas Originals NMD XR-1 continues to build on the futuristic foundation NMD has already laid. This new rendition adds a plastic support cage around the midfoot area, improving stability across the upper and adding strength to the overall design. The Boston/Micropacer inspired rectangular plugs are still present within the midsole, protruding outwards from the cushioned Boost foam.

Primeknit spans the whole of the upper, decorated with a linear pattern running across the entire one piece panel. A leather heel-cup sweeps around the back for extra support, and the bi-lingual pull tab we’ve seen on previous NMD releases has also been included, weaving in and out of the leather.

The NMD series has definitely been one of the most successful outputs from adidas Originals we’ve seen in recent times, and it seems as though the collection is only going to grow bigger and stronger as they continue to develop their forward thinking, future orientated product plan.

Look forward to the adidas Originals NMD XR-1 launching online and in selected size? stores on Wednesday 17th September, with pricing details to follow.

The newest rendition’s of the OG NMD R1 shape are these two consumer favourites, the blocked out red and black. Varying in material to the XR-1, these two are made up from a combination of neoprene around the heel area, and a flexible mesh forming the sidewalls and toebox. Striped branding across the side has been fused on using a flattened tape material, and a plastic heel counter adds extra support.

All three releases from the pack feature the much anticipated coloured boost midsole, something consumer’s themselves began experimenting with upon the release of the original Ultra Boost last year. It’s taken a while for the process to finally be perfected as the colour used within and on the exterior of the cushioning needed to be flexible to avoid cracking and withstand everyday wear.

Both colourways of the NMD R1 will also be available online and in selected size? stores on Wednesday 17th September.
