Name: Nike Mind 002 “Football Grey”
Colorway: Football Grey/Hydrogen Blue-Hyper Crimson-Chrome
SKU: HQ4310-002
MSRP: $145 USD
Release Date: April 30, 2026
Where to Buy: Nike

Nike is continuing the rollout of its innovative footwear series with the upcoming release of the Nike Mind 002 “Football Grey.” Expanding upon the sportswear brand’s neuroscience-inspired lineup, the latest colorway delivers a clean yet striking aesthetic to the highly experimental performance model.

The futuristic silhouette is anchored by a textured, dimpled upper and a sculpted midsole, both entirely enveloped in the muted “Football Grey” hue. Providing a cool contrast to the neutral base, “Hydrogen Blue” accents are strategically placed across the tongue, heel area, and inner lining. The streamlined design is further elevated by metallic chrome Swooshes that add a sharp, reflective touch to the upper’s lateral profile.

Beneath the structured exterior, the sole unit houses the Mind series’ signature spherical nodes, rendered in a vibrant “Hyper Crimson.” Beyond their visual flair, these raised traction pods are directly tied to the shoe’s core performance concept. The neuroscience-inspired technology is specifically designed to influence and optimize how the foot interacts with the ground during dynamic movement.
