Adidas NMD R1 Scarlet Shoes - Size 8.5

The Adidas NMDs are one of the best shoes i have ever worn, they’re comfortable, goes with everything, and can be worn all around. They fit comfortable without having to worry about any pain with a lot of breathability and support for working out. I have worn these for over a year and the durability is fantastic.

This is one of the most comfortable sneaker models. They hold the foot well, the laces do not get in the way, the sole is soft. Sneakers do not steam your feet and do not cause discomfort. In them practically as in socks. They are lightweight. They look very stylish, go with any clothes. Suitable for intensive walking and running.

The shoes are comfortable and were a good price for the quality. They’re a bit wider than other shoes, but still comfortable and not too loose. The included shoelaces are a bit thicker which seems to make them easier to come untied, even when double knotted.

The Adidas NMD is a popular sneaker known for its modern design, comfort, and versatility. Its unique combination of sporty and casual aesthetics makes it a go-to choice for many. The Boost cushioning technology offers excellent comfort, making it suitable for everyday wear and even light activities. The Primeknit upper provides a snug and breathable fit. Overall, the Adidas NMD is a stylish and comfortable option for those looking for a blend of fashion and function in their footwear.

Love the fit and look of these shoes. They are extremely comfortable and look nice and chic. I wear them to the gym, running errands, or sometimes pair with a nice outfit. I own multiple pairs in multiple colors. These are my go to sneakers.

Do not purchase. Sneakers do not seem authentic. PURE JUNK!!!!!

I bought two pairs of these sneakers for my son. Today the red NMD sneakers arrived and I was shocked! When I opened up the box, the shoe box had no lid and had clearance stickers on it. When I examined the shoes I could not believe my eyes. The sneaks were made so poorly and with such cheap materials, that I sincerely believe that they are knock-offs. I can not believe that Dicks would sell such products. I am very disappointed and someone needs to look into this. I don't know if someone in the warehouse is replacing expensive sneakers with knock-offs, but something needs to be done or Dicks is going to Loose A LOT of customers! I would not pay $1.00 for the garbage that was mailed to me, let alone almost $100.00! This is how big brands are ruined. People are not ... MoreI bought two pairs of these sneakers for my son.

Great on Style, Not So much Support

Well made and great looking shoe. I love the style My biggest problem is with the comfort. It's definitely not at the comfort level (or price point) of the Ultraboost. It provides nowhere near the support or cushioning and thats my major problem with the shoe. The heel drop is a little too much for me. It feels flat. I am involved in a lot of athletic activities and I tend to develop Plantars Fasciitis, when I do not wear supportive athletic shoes. With the lack of support these provide, I doubt they would make it into my workout routine and definitely not my cross-fit or HIIT routine. Great walking shoe and great stylish casual to fit your athleti-leasure outfit, but to the gym?? Probably not.

Make sure you try them on

I bought these after owning two pairs of pureboost that have lasted me over a year and a half. These are not quite as comfortable as them but they are pretty close. However, when you try them on make sure that your walking style lines up with these shoes. The back part of them connected to the pull tab is very firm. I broke them in on my college campus walking maybe 3-5 miles a day and up and down a 5 story building. It rubbed the back of my Achilles very badly. Wore my skin completely down and I had to wear bandaids and switch back over to my pureboost. Now it doesn't seem to be as much of a problem as I have worn them more. However it could be that my sure are not tied as tight as I normally like them so maybe that has made a difference. Just be cautious of it ... MoreI bought these after owning two pairs of pureboost that have lasted me over a year and a half. These are not quite as comfortable as them but they are pretty close.

Just be cautious of it because I immediately regretted buying these after my experience wearing them the first two weeks.

My boyfriend loves these shoes!

I bought this as a gift for my boyfriend as he loves the Adidas NMDs line. They're super comfortable and he got his normal shoe size of an 10.5 but they were a tad loose. However, this didn't matter because he normally puts a gel insert into the shoe just to make the shoe more comfortable and the shoe size fit perfectly. I docked just 1 star off because with his previous NMDs, the stripes were more "indented" into the shoe and less noticeable versus the "stickered on" stripes of this version. Overall he still loves the shoe and will keep buying these in the future!

Pros and cons

After a long debate, I finally decided to purchase a pair of these shoes. I bought them on sale and was pretty excited when they arrived. As I'm on my feet 8 hours a day, I thought that these shoes would be perfect for work. They are very comfortable and stylish.With that said, I assumed that because of the price (I don't usually spend $100+ on shoes) and them being Adidas that they would be better quality than most shoes. Unfortunately, the tip of the shoe is already separating. And for only having these shoes for less than a month, I'm pretty disappointed. Probably won't be buying again.
