26th Shoe Review: NMD R_1 PrimeKnit 'Gum' Black


    Background Information: The specific NMD R_1 came with the "Gum Pack", which contained 2 pairs of shoes that had gum soles. One was all white and there was this one. The "Gum Pack" was released on February 4, 2017 alongside the other Gum pack that was released which contained 2 pairs NMD C_S1. 
    Quality: You guys already know that if it's prime knit it's going to be a really comfortable shoe and  this NMD is very comfortable and feels exactly like the OG. Everything on top of the shoe is colored out in black until it reaches the stabilizer and sole. The stabilizer (on the boost) is white and the sole is a gum sole. Gum is a brown rubber that gives a shoe a classy look. As always the NMD R_1 is features full length boost and since this design is prime knit it'll cost just a little bit more than your usual NMD. Overall quality is really well done and comfortability is amazing. 
    Traction: 9
    Fit: True to Size
    Retail: $130
    What to Wear With: Anything casual( chino plants would go really well since there is a gum sole). 
    Where to Buy: Ebay, Succezz( located on 1329 S. Michigan Ave, Chicago, Illinois), or GOAT App
    Overall Summary: Surprisingly this prime knit release of the NMD R_1 doesn't cost as much as other NMD R_1's mostly because the color isn't really limited looking and that this did release alongside with NMD C_S1 Gum Pack which costs way more than the R_1. However if you are interested to buy these I recommend to go to Succezz (who are selling both this color way and the all white color way) or Ebay. When on Ebay though be careful not to get scammed and always check the seller's ratings.
