FAQs

What inspired the design of the NMD S1 Pharrell Humanrace Mahbs Oatmeal?

The design is inspired by Pharrell Williams’ travels around the world, aiming to bring a new dynamic to footwear with a collaborative Humanrace and adidas vision.

How does the Boost midsole benefit the wearer?

The Boost midsole provides ultimate cushioning and energy return, ensuring the wearer is comfortable and supported with every step, reducing fatigue during extended wear.

What kind of grip does the outsole offer?

The rubber outsole features a unique Trefoil design that ensures ultimate grip and traction, ideal for quick movement and providing stability during torsion.

Is this shoe suitable for athletic performance?

While designed with sports science and offering excellent cushioning and traction, its primary appeal is in its artistic aesthetic and comfortable daily wear. It is suitable for light activities and urban exploration.

How should I clean the painted details on the heel?

Clean painted areas gently with a slightly damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive rubbing to prevent damage or discoloration.

What does the knit bootie construction do?

The knit bootie construction guarantees a secure and snug fit around the foot, offering comfort and a streamlined look.

When was this sneaker originally released?

The adidas NMD S1 Pharrell Humanrace Mahbs Oatmeal was released on January 27, 2023.

Troubleshooting

Slight stiffness upon first wear.

The knit bootie construction may feel snug initially. Wear the shoes for short periods to allow them to adapt to your foot shape. The Boost midsole will also soften with wear.

Discoloration on painted heel.

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can fade colors. Clean gently with a damp cloth as per care instructions; avoid harsh rubbing on painted areas.

Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces.

While the Trefoil outsole offers good grip, all rubber outsoles can have reduced traction on very wet or slippery surfaces. Exercise caution in such conditions.

Sizing feels different from other adidas models.

Sizing can vary slightly between models. Refer to the adidas sizing chart and consider the snug fit of the bootie construction when selecting your size. If possible, try them on before purchasing.
