The NMD R1 V2’s upper and insole are done in a Core Black textile with extra reinforcement found in the toebox, back heel, and the length of the eyelets. The iconic 3-Stripes in Cloud White are nestled between the eyelet and the midsole, which gives the shoe a bit of dimension. The midsole features adidas Boost foam providing energy-return in each step. The heel strap and midsole feature additional adidas branding in various languages. A rubber outsole with ensures durability and longevity.
Something we just can’t get enough of with this sneaker are the signature plastic inserts that detail the midsole. The lateral side sports one in black with adidas branding in white, giving it contrast. The ones on the heels are smooth, found on both the lateral and medial sides, and they ride up into the heel cup. The adidas NMD R1 V2 Script Black was released on August 1st, 2021, at a retail price of $140.
