Boundary-Pushing Running Shoes

Pharrell Has Pushed the Boundaries of Creativity with His New Shoe

— April 28, 2022 — Fashion
American rapper and record producer Pharrell Williams has pushed the boundaries of creativity with his new shoe, the 'adidas x Pharrell Williams HU NMD S1 RT.' The purpose of this drop is to promote self-expression. This is the second recent collaboration between Pharrell and adidas, dating back to the HU NMD S1 RYAT 'BLACK'.

The previous design took on the stylish appeal of a hiking boot, while the more recent white edition is something to add to your spring/summer collection. The shoe comprises premium suede, leather overlays, and a BOOST midsole that will turn heads. The cloud-like cushion reminds wearers that the future is now.

These durable shoes were made for everyday use and lovers of the outdoors. Those interested in the shoe can visit adidas's official site.
