FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?

While the NMD_R1 features responsive cushioning, it is designed primarily as a lifestyle and casual walking shoe rather than a technical performance running trainer.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Use a soft, slightly damp cloth to wipe down the leather. For tougher stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner applied to a cloth rather than directly to the shoe.

Does the NMD_R1 run true to size?

Yes, it is generally considered true to size. If you have particularly wide feet, you may find the snug sock-like fit tight and might prefer to try a half-size up.

Is the material breathable?

The leather upper provides a more structured and durable feel compared to textile or mesh NMD versions, which results in slightly lower breathability.

Can I replace the insoles?

The insoles are designed to be integrated into the shoe, but if necessary, they can typically be removed carefully to accommodate custom orthotics.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty putting on the shoe

The sock-like collar can feel tight. Ensure the laces are fully loosened before stepping in, and use the heel pull tab to help guide your foot into the shoe.

Creasing on the leather upper

Natural leather creasing is expected with wear. To minimize deep creases, use a shoe tree when the sneakers are stored to help the material retain its shape.

Slippery sole on slick surfaces

Ensure the rubber outsole is free of debris. If the grip remains poor, clean the outsole with a damp brush to remove caked-on dirt or grit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because the NMD_R1 utilizes a sock-like upper, it is recommended to loosen the laces fully when first putting the shoes on to avoid unnecessary tension on the collar. The shoe is true to size for most users, but the leather material offers less stretch than knit variants. For care, keep the leather clean by wiping it with a soft, damp cloth after use to remove dust or debris. Avoid soaking the shoes in water, as this can degrade the leather and the adhesive bonding the sole to the upper. If the shoes get wet, air-dry them at room temperature away from direct heat sources to maintain their shape.
