In January 2018, adidas released the NMD_R1 'Blizzard' colorway, which showcases a stretch mesh upper incorporating twisted two-tone yarn. This design creates a distinct textured effect that evokes memories of medieval chainmail armor. Additionally, the shoe includes a Carbon tongue patch featuring the iconic Trefoil logo, as well as Welded Core Black Three-Stripes on the side panel and a molded matte black heel patch. The underfoot is characterized by a white Boost midsole accompanied by Carbon EVA midsole bumpers and an all-black rubber outsole.
