FAQs
What makes the NMD S1 different from other NMD models?
The NMD S1 features a more aggressive, saw-toothed outsole design and a bulkier Boost sole unit compared to earlier NMD silhouettes, along with a distinct PrimeKnit upper construction.
Is the Boost technology durable?
Yes, Boost technology is known for its durability and ability to maintain its cushioning properties over extended periods and numerous cycles of wear.
How do I ensure the best fit?
The PrimeKnit upper offers a sock-like fit. Try them on if possible, or consult sizing charts. They should feel snug but not restrictive.
Can these shoes be worn in wet conditions?
While the PrimeKnit material has some water resistance, they are not waterproof. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or puddles to maintain comfort and material integrity.
What is the primary benefit of the PrimeKnit upper?
The PrimeKnit upper provides a lightweight, breathable, and flexible feel, conforming to the foot for a comfortable, sock-like fit.
Are these suitable for athletic performance?
These are primarily lifestyle sneakers designed for comfort and style. While they offer good cushioning, they are not optimized for high-impact athletic activities.
What does 'limited edition' mean for this shoe?
Limited edition means the shoe was produced in a restricted quantity, making it potentially harder to find and often increasing its desirability among collectors.
Troubleshooting
PrimeKnit upper feels too tight
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the PrimeKnit to stretch and conform to your foot shape. Ensure laces are not tied too tightly.
Difficulty cleaning the saw-toothed outsole
Use a stiff brush (like a toothbrush) with a bit of soap and water to dislodge dirt from the crevices of the outsole.
Reduced cushioning over time
While Boost technology is durable, prolonged heavy use can eventually lessen its responsiveness. Regular cleaning and avoiding extreme conditions can help maintain performance.
Color transfer from socks
Ensure socks are colorfast. If color transfer occurs, clean the interior gently with a mild cleaning solution and allow to air dry thoroughly.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: Gently clean the PrimeKnit upper with a soft brush or cloth and a mild soap solution. Avoid harsh scrubbing, which can damage the material.
- Midsole and Outsole: Wipe the midsole and outsole with a damp cloth. For tougher dirt on the outsole, a soft brush can be used.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can deform the shoe.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or their original box, to protect them from dust and direct sunlight.
