FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running long distances?
While the NMD series originated from running shoe concepts, the NMD_R1 'Core Black Red' is best suited for lifestyle wear, offering comfort for daily activities rather than intense, long-distance running.
Where can I buy the customizable heel patches?
Customization patches are sold separately. Please check with authorized adidas retailers or online stores that offer NMD accessories.
How do I determine my correct UK size?
Refer to the adidas sizing chart for accurate measurements. For the NMD_R1, a snug, sock-like fit is intended, so consider this when choosing your size.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the knit material and cushioning. Hand wash using a mild detergent and allow to air dry.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is made from a breathable knit textile, designed for comfort and a flexible, sock-like fit.
Is the 'Core Black Red' colorway available in other styles?
The NMD_R1 series features various models and colorways. The 'Core Black Red' specific combination is unique to certain NMD_R1 releases, but similar color palettes might exist in other NMD variations.
How do I clean the red accents?
Clean the red accents gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or excessive water, especially on the textile areas.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
The knit upper is designed to be snug. Try wearing thinner socks or loosening the laces. If the issue persists after a few wears, they may be too small.
Discoloration on the knit upper
Avoid exposing the shoes to prolonged direct sunlight or harsh chemicals. Clean with a mild soap and water solution as per care instructions.
Velcro patch not sticking
Ensure both the shoe's heel patch area and the customization patch are clean and dry. Check for any lint or debris that might be preventing adhesion.
Reduced cushioning feel over time
The Boost cushioning may feel less responsive with extensive use. Regular cleaning and avoiding excessive wear in extreme conditions can help maintain its properties.
