adidas Releases The NMD_R1 “A.I. Camo” With Only 900 Pairs Available

adidas has officially unveiled the NMD_R1 “A.I. Camo” Pack after several teases earlier in the mid-year.

Two colourways make up the pack, one predominantly in red and the other in black. Both take on a Primeknit upper, matching EVA midsole bumpers and white BOOST midsole.

According to sources, the pack will see an extremely limited run, with only 900 pairs available. The sneaker is now available in Western Europe via the adidas Confirmed app.

No word yet on releases in other parts of the globe, but if the shoe has been on your bucket list, the limited release may cause a hefty resale premium.

Collaborations are spawning at every corner of the sneaker and fashion scene, and Chanel is now entering the fray with a team up involving none other than Pharrell Williams and his adidas NMD HU Trail.

Decked out in Chanel’s iconic black and white colour scheme, the pair features both Pharrell’s and Chanel’s branding on its upper and the Trail’s distinctive jagged outsole.

The images that have surfaced are rendered by reliable source Yeezy Mafia, but based on their track record, we expect the final product to appear pretty close to the illustrations.

adidas’ New NMD Model Raises Eyebrows

adidas is planning to release a brand new version of its popular NMD model and the first images of the pair have begun to surface online.

With the bumper at the back of the outsole and a suede heel added, this design have since received mixed reactions to NMD enthusiast. The bumpers on the side has a rather eccentric look and the colour scheme is perplexing compared to previous models.

Called the adidas NMD Racer Primeknit, the model is set to hit the market in mid 2018.

A New Addition To The Black BOOST Family Comes In The Shape of An NMD

adidas is working on a brand new NMD colourway which utilises a coloured-in BOOST midsole in black, thanks to a preview from Instagram user @sneakerprophet_.

Decked out in a deep blue upper, the black BOOST provides significant contrast and novelty to the kicks.

A post shared by @sneakerprophet_ on

Coloured BOOST midsoles have been fairly popular in recent months, a departure from when the famed soles only came in white.

They are also a welcomed edition for NMD and BOOST fans who have struggled with yellowing midsoles.

No release date has been confirmed just yet, but stay tuned for more updates.
