History of the Adidas NMD_R1 STLT Primeknit
Back in December 2015, Adidas launched a casual sneaker Justin matches people’s fast-paced lifestyles. Appropriately dubbed as the NMD, short for “Nomad,” it combined the brand’s most talked-about technologies, the Boost, and the Primeknit. These two techs fusion made the shoe ultralight, breathable and comfortable.
The NMD was a product of the divergent thinking of the VP of Global Design Nic Galway, the genius behind equally iconic lines the Tubular and the Yeezys. Its first model was the NMD_R1. Interestingly, its modern look was inspired by three retro models, the Rising Star, the Boston Super, and the Micro Pacer. All of which are considered outdated. Their silhouette, though, was perceived as ahead of its time during its initial release.
Minimally-styled, unique and tech-filled, sneaker addicts greeted the NMD_R1’s entrance with zest. Instantly, the shoe sold out, and it became one of the brand’s most coveted models. To keep the fans excited, Adidas released other variations including the NMD_R2 Adidas Adizero 11 Turbo Fuel Semi Solar Green Semi Solar Green Silver Metallic Cloud White.
Despite its decline in popularity, it has not lost its charm. The introduction of the low-top Adidas NMD_R1 STLT Primeknit proves this. Making a preview on June 2017 and released in the market in December of the same year, this model, which shows off a revamped PK upper and floating laces, has been seen in a variety of hues in a span of a few months.
