FAQs

What makes the NMD S1 different from other NMD models?

The NMD S1 features a more robust, reimagined silhouette with a distinctive saw-toothed outsole and a gradient midsole design, setting it apart from earlier NMD styles.

Are these shoes good for running?

While the Boost technology offers excellent cushioning and energy return suitable for walking and light activity, they are primarily designed as lifestyle sneakers rather than performance running shoes.

How do I ensure I get the right size?

Refer to the UK sizing chart provided by adidas. The PrimeKnit upper offers a flexible fit, but it's recommended to choose your standard sneaker size.

What does 'limited edition' mean for availability?

Limited edition means the shoe was produced in a finite quantity. Once sold out, they may not be restocked, and availability will depend on the secondary market.

Can the PrimeKnit upper be stretched if needed?

The PrimeKnit material has some natural stretch and will conform to your foot over time. Significant stretching is not recommended as it may affect the fit and support.

How durable is the saw-toothed outsole?

The rubber outsole is designed for durability and grip in urban environments. However, aggressive wear or use on abrasive surfaces may lead to faster wear over time.

Troubleshooting

Slight tightness or discomfort upon first wear.

The PrimeKnit upper is designed to stretch slightly and conform to your foot. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in and mold to your shape.

Dirt or debris stuck in the outsole pattern.

Use a small brush (like an old toothbrush) or a pointed object (carefully) to dislodge any stubborn debris from the saw-toothed outsole grooves.

Discoloration on the white upper.

For minor scuffs, try a magic eraser or a damp cloth with a very mild cleaning solution. Test on an inconspicuous area first.

Care:

  • Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the PrimeKnit upper with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh scrubbing.
  • Cleaning the Midsole/Outsole: Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and water to clean the Boost midsole and the rubber outsole. Remove any debris from the saw-toothed pattern.
