Nike Mind 001

this just lets you know how important marketing is. Again, if Skechers dropped these they’d be a joke.

Multiple sources have been saying to size up, so if you sized down you likely won’t be happy with the fit.
 
Will these restock again? i need these black for retail or close to it.

Good luck with that lmao. Black are the most popular and most expensive. Next restock is in April but black colorway isn’t listed as of right now. Bone, Silver & Red have already released twice and still almost impossible to get anywhere near retail. Silver will restock again in April along with a new colorway.
 

Got tired of checking everyday for restock info lol. L’s on the first two releases and next release isn’t until April and would probably strike out on that one as well. Wasn’t about to waste 3 months chasing after these lol.

Might have to do the same for the black. I don’t think they will be easy to get anytime soon
 
My bone pair coming in today, size 11... Think imma flip em towards the black pair I really wanted if anyone interested before I throw em on the sites.
 
This has been a hilarious experience! The Mind 001 popped up on my feed a few weeks ago. "Yet another Nike gimmick", I thought and didn't think about them again.

Couple of days ago I'm in a Nike store and I see one on display, okay fine let me try them on... "We're out of stock, there's another color way coming on Thursday." Made a mental note to stop by and satisfy my curiosity.

This morning, I'm walking past the Nike store at 5AM on the way to the gym... there's a line of about 20 people. I think, "There's no ******* way..." I go up to one of the people in the line, they didn't speak English and didn't really know what they were standing line for. I look up and down the line and these don't look like sneaker heads. Yup, this is for the Mind 001 I'm 100%.

They've been paid off Craigs List to hold some scalpers place.

Out of curiosity I check Nike.com and see there's a 7AM drop. For ****s and giggles I hit up Nike.com and land the 002 to try them on. Because, fine, you got me Nike... now I'm curious. No surprise, no luck on the 001 queue.

On the way back at 9:30AM there's about 100 people in the line outside the same Nike store.

At 11AM I'm walking past yet and hear a USPS guy tell the 20-30 NEW people in the line that there's only size 5 and 6 women's left and watched the line evaporate in a split second lol

What's hilarious is that Nike is going to flood the market with 100 different color ways over the next year.

Update: I received the Mind 002 and have been wearing them for a couple of days. They're uncomfortable for daily wear. The 'suction' effect on the sole of your feet is super distracting. Whatever thoughts you're having, your mind's attention will be abruptly drawn to the sole of your feet. To be fair, Nike does say they're distracting: "Its large outsole nodes push against your foot as you step, engaging sensory areas of the brain to help you stay present and connect with your surroundings". There's no calming "clearing you mind" effect or whatever else Nike is claiming. Quite the opposite, they can be stress inducing. If you're looking for a shoe that melts away and you don't think about during your day, these are not it. Supposedly took 10 years to develop, they feel like they were brainstormed in 10 minutes. I've been to Nike's testing labs at HQ, they have technology probably second to only Apple. The claims Nike is making is from their marketing department, there's no way anyone inside the labs seriously thinks these are viable. Alas, I will be returning them. If you have space in your rotation, by all means get one for the experience - they are indeed unique. FYI the 002 fits TTS.

I've been wearing my pair a lot to the gym and out to run errands. Definitely a shoe that makes people stop you to ask about them. Even from people who aren't into sneakers like that lmao
 
Trying to figure when Nike will flood the market so I can get these on disco.
