FAQs
What makes the NMD_S1 different from other NMD models?
The NMD_S1 features a more rugged, saw-toothed outsole and a distinct gradient effect on the midsole, along with an updated PrimeKnit upper for a streamlined, sock-like fit.
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While they feature Boost cushioning for comfort, the NMD_S1 is primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear, not for high-impact running activities. Specialized running shoes would be more appropriate for intense training.
How do I ensure I'm buying authentic Adidas NMD_S1 trainers?
Purchase from reputable retailers or authorized sellers. Look for authentic branding, correct stitching, and original packaging. Sellers like 'Marke & Vertrauen Drop Zone' specialize in authentic branded footwear.
What is Boost technology?
Boost is Adidas's proprietary cushioning technology made from thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU). It offers excellent energy return and shock absorption, providing a comfortable and responsive feel.
Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
The PrimeKnit upper is breathable but not waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, they are not designed for heavy rain. Prolonged exposure to wet conditions may affect the material and comfort.
What is the official release date?
The Adidas NMD_S1 White Light Purple was initially released for retail on December 15th, 2022.
Troubleshooting
PrimeKnit upper feels too tight
The PrimeKnit material is designed to stretch and conform to your foot over time. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in.
Difficulty cleaning the saw-toothed outsole
Use a small brush (like an old toothbrush) with a mixture of mild soap and water to gently scrub the crevices of the outsole. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry.
Color transfer from purple accents
While unlikely with authentic products, if color transfer occurs, clean the affected area immediately with a damp cloth. Avoid prolonged contact with light-colored materials when the shoes are wet.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to gently remove dirt from the PrimeKnit material. Avoid harsh detergents.
