4. adidas NMD_R1 “Grey/White”
There have been a lot of, let’s say, exotic iteration of the NMD_R1 shoe, but not everybody might be into Salmon or Off-White tones. Adidas combined an EVA midsole, synthetic upper and TPU strips to create a decent runner shoe in a plain, simple grey. Available for $130 at SneakerPolitics.

For the last part of HighSnobiety 10 year celebration, dubbed #HSDecade, the fashion website teamed with Vans Vault and released Old Skool “Sand”. A full tonal upper painted in buttery sand nuance resting on a clean white midsole. Branding is extremely discrete, nuanced the same with the midsole.
