adidas NMD_R1 Shoes

It's a jungle out there and every second spent indoors is another second wasted. Engineered for intrepid urban explorers, adidas NMD_R1 shoes have the heart of an adventurer. Their name, after all, is a shortened form of "nomad." However, their inspiration comes from a much more controlled environment: the running track. Taking 1980s adidas runners such as the Micropacer, Rising Star and Boston Super as their fleet-footed muses, they combine archival details like those eye-catching midsole plugs with technologies of today, including energy-returning adidas Boost cushioning and lightweight, stretchy uppers.

The result? The adidas NMD_R1 was a runaway success story when it first launched in 2015 and, with the help of its many successors and variants, it's still at the front of the lifestyle footwear pack today. In fact you can bet there's a pair in the selection above that's primed to carry you on your next expedition, whether it's a short hop to the gym or a long haul to the other end of town. With a huge range of colours, designs, sizes and builds, you're sure to find the perfect fit. So wherever your next adventure lies, shop our range of adidas NMD_R1 sneakers today and discover your perfect partner.
