Pharrell Williams' ongoing collaboration with adidas under the Humanrace banner has consistently delivered noteworthy designs that blend style with significance. Although his recent endeavors see him diving into the luxury world with Louis Vuitton, the artist doesn't abandon his adidas work. Among the slew of releases, the NMD silhouette remains a standout, with recent renditions like the workwear-influenced MAHBS making waves. Now, the outdoor-inspired RYAT variant is getting a fresh Indigo colorway.
Drawing inspiration from Pharrell’s rekindled love for nature and outdoor activities, the NMD_S1 RYAT showcases meticulous craftsmanship. This release is bathed in varying indigo shades, giving a nod to the rich and deep traditions tied to this color. The sneaker's upper skillfully melds suede with leather overlays, exuding luxury and durability. Further enhancing its rugged appeal, a rubberized TPU mudguard and a robust toecap are integrated. Soft light pink accents in the sockliner bring a touch of contrast, while branding details, like the Humanrace insignia on the tongue and adidas branding on the midsole heel, ensure the collaborative effort isn't missed. Underneath, the sturdy rubber sole remains loyal to the NMD_S1 design, housing the ultra-comfortable full-length Boost cushioning system.
The Pharrell Williams x adidas NMD_S1 RYAT Indigo will release in 2023 through adidas and select retailers online and in-store. Available in men's sizes, this collaboration is priced at $250.
