The adidas NMD Hu Pharrell Crystal White is an athletic shoe featuring a Crystal White Primeknit upper. Sportswear giant adidas began collaborating with artist Pharrell Williams in the 20-teens, and they conceptualized the NMD Hu, which first debuted in 2015.
The NMD Hu has been recreated in numerous variations since its initial release, all featuring a poignant message displayed on the vamp in the discussion of improving humanity and the human race. Rope laces pass through side wall grids in Shock Yellow, creating the canvas for the vamp’s Human Race branding, rendered in Chinese characters. The adidas branding appears on the white leather heel patch. The midsole features Boost cushioning throughout, accented by EVA plugs in Clear Mint and Shock Yellow.
Our experts feel that the best feature of the NMD Hu is its unique lacing system, which stands apart from other sneaker silhouettes while displaying the shoe’s message. The adidas NMD Hu Pharrell Crystal White was released on October 25, 2020, and retailed for $220.
