NMD Human Race Dawn Rise Sample Sneakers

Created as part of Pharrell Williams’s pioneering collaboration with adidas, the NMD Human Race “Dawn Rise” sneakers exemplify the artist’s vision of positivity, unity, and forward momentum. Produced in 2016 for the Fall/Winter 2017 season as unreleased “Look See” samples, the pair retains its original sample tags—a testament to its rarity and significance within the Human Race lineage.

The design features a vivid orange Primeknit upper with purple accents. Embroidered across the right shoe is the word “DAWN,” while the left reads “RISE,” a pairing that reflects the uplifting, optimistic ethos central to Pharrell’s creative philosophy.

This pair was owned by Pharrell Williams and remains in pristine, brand-new, deadstock condition. A rare and exceptional example from the Human Race legacy.

This lot is accompanied by a Certificate of Ownership verifying that the shoes are from Pharrell Williams’ private collection.
