FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?
The NMD R1 are primarily lifestyle trainers designed for comfort and style in everyday wear. While they offer good cushioning, they may not provide the specialized support or responsiveness required for long-distance or competitive running.
How do I clean the Boost midsole?
You can clean the Boost midsole with a damp cloth and mild soap. For tougher scuffs, a magic eraser can be used very carefully, but test it on a small area first to ensure it doesn't damage the material.
What is the primary benefit of the Boost technology?
Boost technology provides excellent energy return and responsive cushioning, making the shoes feel comfortable and reducing fatigue during extended wear.
Can I put these shoes in a washing machine?
It is generally not recommended to machine wash sneakers, especially those with Boost midsoles and mesh uppers, as it can damage the materials and adhesives. Hand washing is the preferred method.
What does 'NMD R1' stand for?
NMD stands for 'Nomad', representing the brand's inspiration from modern urban exploration and travel. The 'R1' signifies its status as an original or first model in the NMD line.
How does the black and red colorway perform in terms of versatility?
The Core Black and Red colorway is bold yet versatile. It pairs well with neutral colors like grey, white, and black, as well as other shades of red and blue, making it suitable for a wide range of casual and athletic-inspired outfits.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure you have the correct size. For new shoes, break them in gradually with short periods of wear. Check lacing for even pressure distribution.
Mesh upper appears dirty or stained.
Follow the care instructions for cleaning the mesh upper using mild soap and water. For tough stains, consider specialized sneaker cleaning products designed for mesh.
Outsole grip seems reduced.
Clean the rubber outsole thoroughly to remove any accumulated dirt or debris that may be affecting traction.
