FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for long-distance running?
While the NMD_R1 offers good cushioning and comfort for shorter runs and everyday activities, they may not provide the specialized support and durability required for long-distance marathon training. For extensive mileage, consider dedicated running shoes.
How do I clean the black knit material?
Use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap and gently wipe the fabric. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or brushes that could damage the knit. Always air dry.
Where can I find replacement or additional heel patches?
Additional and interchangeable heel patches are typically available for purchase directly from the adidas website or authorized adidas retailers.
What does 'NMD_R1' stand for?
NMD stands for 'Nomad,' reflecting the shoe's inspiration from urban exploration and travel. The 'R1' denotes the first iteration within the NMD series.
Is the sizing true to size?
Generally, the NMD_R1 trainers are considered true to size. However, individual fit can vary. It's recommended to consult the adidas sizing chart and consider your foot width.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. The materials, particularly the knit upper and Boost midsole, can be damaged by the washing machine cycle. Hand washing is the preferred method.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is primarily constructed from a breathable knit textile, offering a sock-like fit.
Troubleshooting
Tread wear is uneven.
Ensure you are using the correct size. Rotate shoes regularly if used for intense running to allow cushioning to recover and reduce uneven stress.
Knit upper feels too tight.
The sock-like upper is designed to be snug. Wear with thin socks initially, or gently stretch the shoe by wearing it around the house for short periods.
Heel patch does not stay attached.
Ensure the Velcro surfaces on both the shoe and the patch are clean and free from debris. Press firmly to secure the patch.

Care:
- Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the knit upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh scrubbing which can damage the material.
- Cleaning the Sole: Use a soft brush or cloth to clean the midsole and outsole. For stubborn marks, a specialized shoe cleaner can be used.
