Nike has unveiled official images of the Mind 002 “Sail” sneaker, a women's colorway featuring an off-white upper and orange cushioning. The release is scheduled for April 2, 2026, via Nike.com at a price of $145 USD. This addition builds on the Mind series' popularity for its recovery-focused design.
Nike's Mind series has gained significant attention as one of the brand's most discussed new concepts. The lineup, which includes the original model and a slide counterpart, positions the footwear around recovery and neurological stimulation benefits. The Mind 002 model stands out in Nike's experimental offerings due to its futuristic design, though limited availability has led to quick sellouts and challenges in acquiring pairs.
The new women's colorway, dubbed the Nike Mind 002 “Sail/Chalk” with style code HQ4310-100, introduces a clean, neutral aesthetic. It features a full off-white “Sail” upper for a sleek and understated look, complemented by subtle silver and black branding details for contrast. The signature podded sole includes vibrant orange cushioning elements, providing a burst of color while aligning with prior Mind releases.
Unlike the slide-inspired Mind 001, the Mind 002 offers a more secure, sneaker-like build suitable for everyday wear, while preserving the recovery-focused concept. This colorway draws from the early releases that shaped the series' identity, even as Nike has experimented with bolder palettes.
The sneaker is expected to launch on April 2, 2026, through Nike.com in women's sizing for $145 USD. Growing interest in the Mind series suggests this release will attract considerable attention.
