FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, they are made of leather and are not intended for use in heavy rain or deep puddles.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

We strongly advise against machine washing as it can damage the leather and the integrity of the NMD bumper details.

Are these good for running?

While they are comfortable, they are classified as lifestyle trainers rather than performance running shoes.

How do I choose the right size?

The NMD_R1 fits true to size, but the sock-like collar provides a snug fit that may feel different from traditional shoes.

What is the best way to store them?

Store them in a cool, dry area away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the leather from drying out.

Troubleshooting

The fit feels too tight around the midfoot.

Try loosening the laces completely and re-tying them to create more volume, or consider wearing thinner socks.

Creasing appears on the leather upper.

This is normal for leather footwear; use a shoe tree when not wearing them to help maintain the shape and minimize deep creases.

The outsole is losing grip on slick surfaces.

Check the tread for debris or buildup and wipe the soles with a damp cloth to restore traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your NMD_R1 trainers, keep them away from excessive moisture as the leather can become stiff or damaged if soaked. For cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt and a leather-safe cleaner for deeper stains. Avoid machine washing, as the heat and agitation can compromise the adhesive bonding of the signature NMD bumpers. When sizing, note that the sock-like construction is intended to fit snugly; if you prefer more room in the toe box, consider the typical sizing practices for adidas lifestyle footwear. Store your shoes in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the leather from cracking or fading over time.
