The adidas NMD CS1 Parley Blue Spirit was released in part of a collaborative effort between adidas and Parley for the Oceans - an organization dedicated to raising awareness about ocean conservation for the NMD CS1 collection.

The shoe features a sock-like design with a slip-on constriction for a snug, comfortable fit. It has a black base upper with shades of blue throughout in a block pattern. The midsole is fully white, while the outsole is also white but with a blue patch around the midfoot. It incorporates adidas’ Boost technology and has midsole plugs typical of the adidas NMD line. Branding details include the adidas and Parley logo on the heel tab and another adidas logo on one of the midsole plugs.

What our experts love about the adidas NMD CS1 Parley Blue Spirit is the fact that the upper is made from Parley Ocean Plastic, which is created from recycled plastic waste collected from coastal areas to help the environment. The shoe was released on March 30, 2018 at $220.
