Nike has always made a point to cover every facet of the athlete’s footwear needs. Obviously, the brand’s bread and butter is performance shoes for every sport under the sun, but as times evolved and the importance of recovery and relaxation became clearer, Beaverton responded in kind. The brand’s latest off-field innovation takes it one step further, connecting every step to mind-altering pressure points in the foot.
The Nike Mind 001 Light Bone is the latest colorway of the brain-boosting mule designed with a set of 22 carefully placed orange nodes in the outsole that poke through to the foot. The nodes mold to the surface under your shoes, transferring the texture of the ground to your foot and making every step into an intentional, focused decision, freeing up your mind to relax any stress, worry, or nerves that might otherwise distract an athlete before a big game.
Adding a creamy light bone color to the slip-on version of the shoe, the new Mind 001 follows black, red, and grey monochrome versions of the shoe and matching colorways of the lace-up Mind 002. Outside of the orange nodes underfoot, the only other color change from the light bone comes from a series of silver Swooshes on the side panels and top of the mule.
The Nike Mind 001 Light Bone will be released Spring 2026 through Nike and select retailers in-store and online. Available in unisex sizing, the retail price is set at $95. For all the latest news and drop info from Nike’s new Mind line, download the Sole Retriever mobile app.
