Everything You Need to Know About the Nike Mind 001
The Nike Mind 001 slides are currently going viral on social media and for good reason. These innovative Nike Mind slides combine comfort, science, and design, and are specifically developed to support both body and mind. But what makes the Nike Mind 001 so special, and why does everyone want them? In this blog, you’ll learn everything about the technology, popularity, and releases.
What is Nike Mind?
The Nike Mind line is a range of slides and sneakers that includes the Nike Mind 001 and Nike Mind 002. These somewhat funky-looking shoes are designed more for the body and mind than for aesthetics. Each shoe contains 22 foam nodules that move with every step you take. These 22 foam nodules are placed on pressure points that contribute to sensory stimulation and proprioception. This allows athletes (and you) to enhance their sensory awareness, which in turn helps maintain better focus.
How Did Nike Develop This Technology?
Nike spent over 10 years researching how to support athletes in the most comfortable and effective way. They eventually discovered the sweet spot of 22 foam nodules, which are designed to help you clear your mind and better absorb your surroundings. Nike’s goal is to help you stay more present in the here and now. Dr. Matthew Nurse, Nike’s Vice President, explained that after 45 years of focusing on the body, it was finally time to focus on the “Mind.”
Why is the Nike Mind 001 So Popular?
This comes down to two factors: hype and comfort. It’s not something entirely new. Don’t these slides remind you of something? Years ago, there was also a massive hype around the YEEZY Slides, which were extremely comfortable and highly sought after due to their limited releases. Now, the same is happening with the Nike Mind 001 but with far more data and research behind them. Everyone wants to try them for themselves.
What Colors Are Available for the Nike Mind 001?
At the time of writing, the Nike Mind 001 has been released in a limited edition. While this may be disappointing, there’s no need to worry more are coming (we’ll cover that shortly). Currently available colors include the black Nike Mind 001 'Black Chrome', red Nike Mind 001 'Solar Red', light gray Nike Mind 001 'Light Smoke Grey', and gray Nike Mind 001 'Light Bone'.
Who Are the Nike Mind 001 Slides For?
As mentioned, Nike’s focus is on athletes. They want users to stay present and maintain mental focus. That said, sneaker enthusiasts can absolutely wear these slides too. Nike’s motto is: “Anyone with a body is an athlete.” So enjoy the comfort of the Nike Mind 001, even if you’re not a professional athlete.
When Can You Wear the Nike Mind 001?
Although the Nike Mind 001 is marketed as a “pregame” slide, you can wear it before, during, or after your activities completely depending on how you want to use them.
Where Can I Buy the Nike Mind 001?
The Nike Mind 001 has a retail price of €90. However, a caveat: these slides are so popular that they are sold out everywhere at the time of writing. You may need to purchase them at a higher market price since they’re hard to find. If you really want to try them, you can order them with full confidence at Relisted.
Which New Nike Mind 001 Colors Are Expected in 2026?
