The first NMD borrowed openly. Its shape came from adidas running models of the 1980s, and the coloured blocks set into the midsole were lifted from the same archive. Boost underneath made it comfortable enough to wear all day, and it sold accordingly through 2016 and 2017.
The second version added structure the first had not needed. For the third, released in August 2022, adidas moved back toward the original outline: a re-engineered mesh upper on modified Boost tooling, with the midsole plugs retained but the silhouette streamlined again.
A waterproof build followed, and it changes what the shoe is for more than how it looks. The mesh is backed rather than open, so the same profile carries through winter. The grey execution keeps upper and tooling in one register.
