Girls' adidas NMD

Every kid is an original, and girls’ adidas Originals NMD shoes will keep their bodies in motion — and their style on point — all day.

A Heritage of Greatness

When Adolf “Adi” Dassler founded adidas in 1949, he had peak performance in mind. He wanted to give athletes a boost by focusing on their feet. He was so successful in the world of soccer cleats that his company began to branch out to other sports.

adidas had made its mark in track and field at several international games by the time it began developing its running shoes of the 1980s. And when the brand debuted its adidas Originals collection in the late 1990s, it reminded the world of adidas’ most classic and loved models.

Design elements from three memorable models – the Micro Pacer (1985), the Rising Star (1986), and the Boston Super (1987) – blend nicely in the adidas Originals NMD — which stands for nomad. The original, which debuted in December 2015, included the colorful midsole plugs seen on all three models. It all combines adidas’ signature PrimeKnit upper and innovative Boost midsole, all downsized for kids. PrimeKnit is designed to allow breathability and a natural flex that avoids bunching. And Boost consists of thousands of small foam “energy capsules” fused together to form adidas’ most comfortable cushioning ever.

The simple silhouette of these comfortable kicks underscores the shoe’s name, as it’s just the right shoe for a nomadic, go-anywhere lifestyle. The adidas Originals NMD R1 is a nod to the original, while the 360 version offers an all-around mesh upper that’s free of laces to allow easy on/off for the youngest. Look for even more color selections in boys’ adidas Originals NMD options.
