What happens when you receive NMDs one after another for a solid week? You don’t have an adidas NMD Day, you have an adidas NMD WEEK. Yes, emphasis on WEEK.

With the NMD and all of its various configurations grabbing all the attention for the past several months, it is a hit with the entire sneaker community and the general public as well. Look, how can you go wrong with Primeknit and Boost, right? So far, the three stripes has managed to keep the train going with several hyped released, like the reissues of the OG colorway and the newer entries like the City Sock and the NMD R1 with various styles from mesh to jersey knit to reflective.

So about that picture up top. Well, were in Santa Monica for reasons that I can’t disclose here, but I brought along our NMD haul for the past week courtesy of adidas Originals, Champs Sports and Eastbay. Check out how it all went down by watching our recap video.

adidas Originals continues to surprise us with every adidas NMD release, as this latest NMD R1 Primeknit “Tri-Color” Pack utilizes a brand new three stripe color blocking for a change of pace. The woven Primeknit construction has always been the most sought after of the numerous adidas NMD variations as a sock-like fit around the ankle adds supreme comfort to match the breathability found throughout.

Here the adidas NMD R1 Primeknit shines in both a black upper paired with red, white, and blue three stripe branding or a marbled white and black speckled aesthetic with red, black, and royal stripes. Each colorway also offers up that international “The Brand With The Three Stripes” wordmark on the heel tab which now features subtle matching stripes of red and blue to coincide with the new branding choice. There’s still no word yet on an official release date, but rumor has it this duo will arrive at retailers around December 2016. Be sure to check out more of the latest adidas NMD R1 after the break and stay tuned for more release date updates right here on Sneaker News.

While it was first previewed from White Mountaineering, another variation of the upcoming adidas NMD R2 is showcased.

Essentially an upgraded version of its predecessor, the low-top model blends style and modern tech, as it’s comprised of the brand’s signature primeknit upper, in addition to a new patterned overlay that envelops its entirety. In addition, the distinctive boost midsole unit has been refined, which now only features one large EVA insert on the inner lateral section.

Retailing for a price tag of $160, this model is suggested to make its debut at adidas retailers sometime during December 2016.

The silhouette is a crowd pleaser and this variation looks a lot more sleeker. The new construction is solid and this colorway is a versatile pair.

The adidas adi-Ease skate shoe sheds its canvas construction for a new premium leather presentation this fall dubbed the “Universal” series.

The premium adi-Ease Universal is rolling in to select adidas Skateboarding retailers like Premier right now.

The Olympics recently concluded. The 4th of July is over and done with. Does that mean we can no longer wear sneakers sporting Old Glory’s colors? Any time is a good time to wear Red, White and Blue sneakers. Now that we got out the way, here’s a first look at this upcoming adidas NMD rocking patriotic stripes.

The adidas NMD comes constructed out of a Core Black Primeknit upper. There appears to be some kind of graphic pattern throughout the shoe, but the star and main attraction of the upper is with out a doubt the tricolored stripes rocking the Red, White and Blue. Below you will find a White Boost midsole paired up with a set of Black stabilizers. Priced at $170, expect to see these release sometime in December.

I’m all for tricolored stripes, but I prefer if there were other colors. It’s a good start though.

Although this pair of adidas NMDs is not scheduled to drop until the end of the year, it’s worth taking a look at now that we have the official images of the shoe.

Done in Primeknit construction, the shoe’s upper comes rocking a Black and White look that evokes a bit of an Oreo-like aesthetic. The cookie-like upper is then contrasted by a trio of colors noted on the Three Stripes branding, as Blue, Black and Red claim their positioning on the upper. Below you will find a White Boost midsole accompanied by a set of White stabilizers. A White pull tab and Black heel tab round out the look of the shoe. Priced at $170, expect to see these some time during the month of December.

I like the Oreo look on the PK upper, and the tricolored stripes go nicely with the rest of the upper. Good work, adidas.

I’ve always had a soft spot for this model. It doesn’t get the recognition it deserves, but it’s still dope to me.

A brand new colorway of the adidas Y-3 QR Boost has recently surfaced. Opting to go with a retro look, this adidas Y-3 model borrows the color scheme closely associated with the classic adidas EQT line. Let’s take a closer look at the shoe.

As mentioned above, the adidas Y-3 QR Boost appears to borrow the color scheme of the adidas EQT line that made its debut back in the ’90s. A color combination consisting of Grey/Black, White and Sub Green take care of the entire look of the shoe from head to toe. T Construction-wise, the shoe is made out of both premium leather and hits of neoprene. Waxed laces and a Boost sole unit give the shoe both a premium and comfortable look and feel. If you’re looking to pick up a pair, you can now do so at select adidas Y-3 stockists.

I’ve grown very fond of the EQT palette, especially when it’s done on modern adidas models. Very dope looking shoe!

The latest version of the adidas Y-3 QR Run Boost looks to the history of the Three Stripes for its color cues, borrowing the iconic palette of the 1990’s EQT line.

Here’s our latest look at the Kolor x adidas Ultra Boost Uncaged. We got our first look at the shoe not too long ago and it was noted that the shoe was thought to be a sample. In other words, the shoe wasn’t going to be releasing to the public. While nothing official has been said from adidas, we can only cross our fingers in hopes of seeing these in stores.

The Kolor x adidas Ultra Boost Uncaged comes in a Primeknit upper that blends Light Orange with hits of Blue. In addition, hits of Grey are noted on the heel cup, ankle, and laces, while a Blue Continental outsole is placed right below the White Boost midsole. Would you cope this collaborative Ultra Boost Uncaged if it ends up releasing? Let us know in the comments below.

Not big on the colors used. Even if these were to release, I think I’d pass up on them.,

Not too long ago we got our first look at what we think is the adidas Yeezy Boost 350 2.0 in a Turtle Dove colorway. Less than a week later we come across a few images of Kanye West wearing the same model (we think) in a Black and Red colorway.

This version of the adidas Yeezy Boost 350 2.0 comes in a Black Primeknit upper equipped with the “SPLY 350″ print in Bright Red noted on the lateral side of the shoe. Continuing the tonal look of the shoe is the matching Boost infused sole unit. Could these be the Pirate Black versions of the adidas Yeezy Boost 350 2.0  I guess we will have to wait until Yeezy Season 4 which debuts next month during NYFW.

I’m guessing Kanye will bring back all the colors from the first 350 and do them over on the 2nd version. These could very well be the Pirate Blacks. Don’t quote me on it, but it’s a good possibility.

The same hue on the upper extends on to the laces and sole unit. Additional premium features on the shoes include embossed branding on the side panels, tongue and heel, while leather construction on the inner lining. Priced at $130, which pair did you decide to pick up? Let us know in the comments below.

The Mint Green colorway is dope! I?m a fan of that hue so it?s a no-brainer as to which pair I would choose.

The adidas Samoa is back this summer, and arguably looking better than ever thanks to the premium attention the Originals department has given the classic silhouette. The 2016 makeover for the Samoa features a premium pigskin construction in a refurbished shape more true to the original design of the shoe, presented in tonal colorways for an even more stylish look. Following up the trio of colorways from earlier this summer, the Samoa is back to head into fall in all-red and cool mint green options.

After the massive launch of 19 colorways earlier this month, more adidas NMD colorways are already popping up everywhere across the globe.
