Nike is once again focusing on athletes' recovery for this upcoming footwear release, as evidenced by this new slide dropping soon.

Newly leaked images from House of Heat show a detailed look at the futuristic-looking Mind 001 slide. While the tech behind the slides is currently unknown, the first colorway to surface dons a white-based color scheme, revealing more of the silhouette's blocky design. There is plenty of ventilation present at the midfoot and branded with a mini Swoosh at the center and a larger Swoosh on the lateral side. Printed on the footbed is Nike's "Mind Science Department" and bulging orange pods are seen on the outsoles.

Per House of Heat, the Nike Mind 001 slides will hit retailers sometime next year for $90. Check back soon for new developments in the months ahead.

UPDATE (10/23): Nike has officially unveiled its Mind 001 slide and Mind 002 sneaker today. The brand says that the new silhouettes feature 22 independent foam nodes at the underfoot that are scientifically shown to activate various sensory areas of the brain, which heightens the wearer's awareness and makes them feel calmer. The Mind 001 slide and Mind 002 sneaker will release sometime in January 2026 at Nike.com and at select retailers.
