Troubleshooting

Sizing feels off (too tight/loose)

Consult the official adidas sizing chart for the NMD S1 model. Consider the knit bootie construction which should offer a snug fit; if it feels too restrictive, a half-size up might be beneficial. If too loose, ensure laces are tightened appropriately.

Discomfort after prolonged wear

Ensure the correct size has been selected. The Boost midsole requires a short break-in period for some users. If discomfort persists, check for any potential pressure points caused by the knit upper and adjust lacing accordingly.

Traction seems reduced

Clean the rubber outsole from any dirt, debris, or mud that might be lodged in the Trefoil tread pattern. Ensure the surface you are walking on is not excessively wet or oily, as this can affect grip.

Appearance of paint wear

This is a consequence of the artistic application. Minimize friction and abrasive contact with the painted areas. Gentle cleaning as described in the care instructions is recommended.
