My thoughts
Yes:
Great sneaker model that has trickled down to mainstream users feet even today in 2021.
My co-workers when I was working loved the NMD sneaker look, Friends parents had them on, Tee Ball coaches had them on... Friends Kids had them on...
its "cool factor" passed down to all ages.
Lots of colorways a huge plus.
Lots of versions also nice.
No:
if adidas cannot understand limited edition sneaker value add to create demand.
This means work with creators to create more collabs.
Pharrell NMD has continued to create great colorways, new BBC colorways are fire.
Why no Yeezy NMD collab?
NEW NMD Design that Pharrel showed look insane.. if launched properly, new wave energy can be here.

I just bought my first pair this month. The R1 v2. I love these things honestly. Only downside for me is the plastic piece on the middle part of my foot. I want to try the r1 and see if they fit better. I do enjoy these so far though
I bought a pair of full white NMDs a few months ago. My first boost shoe ever (previously only vans and Clark’s guy). The boost completely changed my perception on what a shoe should be to me and my fascination with them is how I stumbled across your channel. They are pretty worn in already as I’ve worn them everywhere. I now own the ultraboost 21’s and plan on getting a pair of the DNAs!
I actually just bought a pair of NMD's. First Boost experience (which led to me to pick up a pair of UB). I think the NMD's need more prime knit (more patterns like the UB). It's a great price point for casual wear if you can't get Yeezy's.

Ub have a lot softer boost and more of the boost and very soft insole. Nmds feel very different - shoe is not only about looks.
NMD's were my first pair of boost sole sneakers! I think nmd's are very roomy and comfortable, but more suitable for running and training. I found them just oh so slightly too firm for standing/walking and I bought some zx 2k boosts which I favour nowadays for standing and walking at work :) NMD's are definitely a good sneaker to repurchase for the gym!
The primeblue version are a lot more comfortable. The upper material doesn’t feel as hard as the previous version. Feels really soft. Also the cushioning around the ankle is different and a lot more cushioned. This version is much better than the old version. I’ve had both!

What's ur style? I honestly find any other shoe pretty ugly. They are all circles and odd shaped shoes these days. Nmd is too clean. I guess the Nike metcons are cool? I just got Puma Voyage nitros to replace my NMDs but they also have a very similar look so idk if they count
The years when NMD, Ultraboost, Stan Smith and Superstar were super hyped 🔥🔥 People are really busy at Jordans right now. Now the New Balance is bouncing back. Hopefully adidas deserve love again soon. But hopefully still sits in outlet with steal price 🔥🔥 Honestly love the modern Primeblue materials now in Ultraboost and NMD
rocking my R2 PKs(Trace Cargos) today! still rock my tripleblack Japan pack, CS1s, my Energy Inks are still one of my favorite CWs of any shoe! did NMDs go somewhere?
Imagine if Jordan treated the Jordan 1 like NMD R1. Shit load of colorways and always readily available and more often than not you can grab a nice color way on sale. That would be amazing.
I'm sure Adidas don't mind about the hype, the NMD has become an iconic model for them. They will continue to be relevant for a long time
I wear my boost exclusively I refuse to wear any other shoe my flat foot loves these and the style is chefs kiss perfect
Have they given up on the Ultraboost DNA ? The 6.0 came out months ago and they only released one color way. Any insight?
i love the nmd 1's, i've had a pair of nmd_1 pk's for 4-5 years now and it's still standing after heavy use , its super comfortable and wide in the front even though it doesnt look like it. THe prime knit is such a game changer, very light and breathable and gives you space for your toes and its a super light weight shoe, so there's nothing not to like - A great looking shoe that is really comfortable and not that expensive. I bought the new revised nmd_1's and they still look great and the sole is as comfortable as before but I don't dig the new upper in terms of comfort compared to the pk version. It's definitely not as breathable or stretchy and its very sad they didn't bring back the PK models. I think i read somewhere Nike sued them because of the PK technology or design.
The boost on the outsole is also painted now.
Hey bro i truly appreciate you reviews on all types of sneakers from the different companies. I have been looking for the most plush and comfortable sneaker and there are soo many options out there and i have continuously tried purchasing a few but to date i havent gotten that ideal comfort. can you recommend in your opinion the best plush and most comfortable light weight sneaker you have ever put your feet in??
I have a triple white pair of NMD R2s. Boost bottomed out really quick but always look clean on feet
If they make a comeback or not it won't matter to me because I love my NMD's and never stopped getting them and love the fact I can be picky on what I get instead of just getting what is left behind after the hypebeast get buy them up.
The NMDs were my first pair of Adidas just recently and I’m frankly not a sneakerhead at all. I really like them. They definitely won me over. The only thing that bugged me was breaking them in because my heels were in PAIN.

True bout the pain
Got me some all black nmd s1 on the way and have had the nmd spectoo and really love them. Boost is life
Like 1 year ago I bought my first pair of NMD’s they were really comfortable and I loved them.
My first pair of sneakers was a pair of NMD Winter Wools and I still have them today (they're beat to shit and the boost is grimey but I keep them anyway, might try to revitalize them or black out the boost soon but cleaning the little hexagons inside is going to be a major pain). I love all the new NMDs and I always grab any pair that goes under $100 in my size. I don't really want to pay above that for them now that they're not so hype though.
Need an episode for HIGH ARCHES (HIGH INSTEP) ... low and mid to high tops please. Thanks
are they more water proof than the UB 1.0?
Love em!
are they good for running ?
I tried a pair of UB's and the sock fit choked the crap out of the instep of my foot and they were also too long. I like them but I can't wear them. I tried tts and .5 up and it was a no go for me.
i bought a pair a couple of hours ago, they're comfy and they look nice so i'm happy
I liked the nmds back in the day but I just have no desire to buy a new pair after I retired my originals. And unlike the ultraboost I wouldn’t really go out of my way to defend them if people wanna say they’re played out
Thanks for the Reshoevn8r code!
Would be good to bring back Consortium releases (hole punch included), and PK in the old style, not the new style (eg branding and laces)
are they comfortable tho?
Love the NMD R1s.. the only con is the white boost is hard to keep clean.
I love them for the comfort and I prefer the nmd stlt primeknit
I would really love to see a new nmd racer. Best shoe I've ever had.
I just bought the primeblues cause I play indoor Nerf games and all the guys there wear running shoes or trainers but overall I am delighted with the comfort and weight (or lack thereof)
I've been trying to find the MMD The new one the white 1 has the Adidas symbol all across the soul of the shoe I just got the Aurora or a with the pink inside Not the Orange one But I have more apathy I'm looking for a very comfortable cushioning shoe
where are those nmd s1’s hes?
Do they really need to make a comeback if they're more or a less a staple shoe? Like, Vans or Chucks sell all year round, but they aren't hyped, I wouldn't say they need a comeback.
You called it about the timing of more info about the new NMD model. Literally five hours after you released this video, Seth Fowler has a video with the NMD S1’s 😂
I’m not sure what those kicks are Pharrell is wearing in those pics but I’ve been dying for them since I first saw them - the styling and coloring is so clean - really love it if those were the née NMDs
I’ve notice the love for adidas been slowly coming back with everyone buying ultraboosts and NMDs not only that these new models like the HU and the new NMDs look amazing as well. BOOST is back.

Don’t like that they went away from the flat cotton lace. Round laces won’t let me lace them how I lace my OGs.

I just bought my fourth pair of nmds, they’re so good

That's funny you say that. I wear all my nmd with insoles because of my plantar fasciitis. Never had an issue with the blocks on the side either. I do have to size up .5 to one whole size though. I got legit insoles so they aren't thin.
Disagree with the exclusivity view. Everyone who wants a pair should be able to just walk in and get a pair. Screw the hype and fake scarcity. NMD finally being readily available with decent colourways now is perfect.
You're just a hype beast bro
I got a pair of those today at the mall they are comfortable than the other sneakers I wear when walking or running it's painful especially when standing all day while at work plus I don't have to worry about friction burns all the when walking around at work as well it can get painful and uncomfortable for me especially when I'm going places the world need these kind of shoes it would really help out a lot
NMD is my go to summer shoe
Why cant they make that exact same one but with a gum sole!! Ive been customizing mine and just want one i dont have to alter
still the coolest sneakers in my opinion. I always keep a pair of ultra boost for when I want most comfort and NMDs when I want comfort, but a cooler looking shoe than the ultra's. 2 pairs of each in triple black and triple white. too clean :D
A leather or suede nmd perhaps🤔
I just got the prime blues I was gonna get the Triple black but I got too many black shoes
Nope... But it will always be an icon. I really hope the Ozelia becomes the new nmd so to speak. The off-white white pair is already being resold for 30 bucks more than retail so I guess we'll see.

The adidas nmd s1 f&f are already out
Hopefully the flyknit / primeknit lawsuit doesnt hinder the comeback. I think there due for it! Nmd and ultraboost are unbeatable, especially for longevity and comfort.
10:35, what are those snkrs?
Can’t wait for the s1’s
Is there an insole now?
Actually the older nmd’s are better as an everyday wear. The new style are tighter and you can’t just slip them in like the old ones
The S1 is 🔥
100% would buy a pair, or 3 in a Adidas x Yeezy NMD!
What type of knot is that?
I have to go up half size in the new NMD because they don't use full primeknit which makes them more snug and in turn makes the EVA plugs on the back dig into the midfoot. Half size up was perfect for me
Hey Hes, Hope u and the fam enjoying Maui! I must have the flattest widest feet in the world. Can't fit a single UB without pushing and pulling to death. I own 5 and it's always a chore to slip on. Always revert to my NMD's with some superfeets. Faves were the OG PK's.

The only way I'd even consider buying an NMD is if they tweak the boost composition to make it more plush. NMD cushioning on the originals is flat and uncomfortable compared to other models.

@@gcforreal the UB21 feels like a well balanced, well thought out shoe. It’s has more than enough boost, not over doing it just for the sake of over doing it. The outsole adds a great amount of stability so you don’t feel like you’re sinking into your shoes too much when standing all day which can be bad for the knees. If your shoes are not stable enough, you have to make constant micro adjustments to maintain your posture/balance. The other thing that I don’t think gets enough recognition on the UB21 is the way it is tilted. To me, it’s perfect. Not so much where it feels like a rocker motion and is uncomfortable to stand but enough where walking forward feels so natural. It’s just a very comfortable experience that goes beyond just being “squishy”. As for colorways, I’m happiest with the all white. Most of my shoes are all white as that fits my style. Just pay attention to how it fits in with the clothes you have and wear.
I still want a triple black pair
It never went no where. I love these kicks. Who cares about the resale?

How dare talk about those beautiful all white Stan Smiths like that 😂
Just bought my first adidas sneakers 3 days and it was the oreo nmd hu.
I have these shoes and they're super hard . I don't get the good reviews.. and I'm usually not picky with shoes ..
In my opinion what Adidas needs to do is they need to firstly make certain NMD colourways a staple; meaning these few colours will be restocked constantly such as the classic Stan Smith navy, green, etc. so the NMD will instantly become a classic that people will think of when looking for a go-to pair of sneakers. What I observed with the Stan Smiths is that once the classic colourways’ stock is depleted, Adidas would restock it quickly and then advertise it on their main page so customers visiting the Adidas website are routinely reminded of the Stan Smiths’ presence. Don’t mean to sound like a broken radio but I wholly agree with NMD collabs. Just look at how successful the NMD x Star Wars collab was. Those Shoes were sold out within weeks where I live! I feel like the NMD silhouette is very versatile and there’s just so much potential to be realised with that canvas. Imagine if Off-White and Adidas NMD decided to make a collab. Those shoes would fly off the damn shelves real quick and the attention would also turn towards the NMD again.
