Name: Nike Mind 001 “Blackened Blue”Colorway: Blackened Blue/Metallic Copper/Game Royal/WhiteSKU: HQ4307-400MSRP: $95 USDRelease Date: April 30Where to Buy: NikeNike is making a compelling case for the Mind 001 to be the slip-on of the year. While distinct with its strong geometry and curiosity prompting nodes, its rollout was rooted in innovation. Bundled within the announcement of the NIKE, Inc. Sport Offense platform, the concept of neuroscience-based footwear was intriguing, a feeling that spread throughout the masses. Having worn the model myself, there has never been another piece of footwear I’ve worn that prompted as many questions from onlookers as this.With demand in place, the Swoosh has been handling the supply side by continuing to churn out colorways. One of the latest Mind 001 looks to surface is this “Blackened Blue” version. A blue outsole shifts to black as it makes its way up the mule, combining with metallic Swooshes for a sleek finish. Underfoot, the 22 independent nodes favor all-white, resulting in a color scheme that feels fragment design-esque.At the time of writing, Nike has not yet confirmed when this “Blackened Blue” version of the Mind 001 mule will be dropping. Stay tuned for updates, including the unveiling of additional colorways, as we currently expect this pair to drop on April 30 via Nike SNKRS and select retailers at a starting price of $95 USD.Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast

This season, sportswear retailer JD adds to its library of sneakers with two exclusive iterations of the New Balance ABZORB 2000. Arriving in dual-toned colorways of “Grey/Blue” and “Black/Red,” the latest additions bring a sleek aesthetic to the technical noughties sneaker that subscribes to the retailer’s signature curation of futuristic, running-inspired classics. On the main body, its mesh panels are kept minimal with the respective “Grey” and “Black” tones, making the metallic webbed overlay stand out even further.Underneath its clean-cut upper, the distinctive ABZORB sole – featuring sculptural SBS pods and a layer of shock-absorbing rubber – is highlighted in the aforementioned “Blue” and “Red” hues respectively. These accent colors also adorn the branded NB tongue, creating synergy across the overall design on both versions. In a new Unboxing video, Hypebeast takes a closer look at the two JD exclusive iterations, showcasing the stand-out features from the drop including the translucent shoebox lid and structured sole.

Name: fragment design x Nike Mind 002 “Particle Grey”Colorway: Particle Grey/Particle GreySKU: IQ8504-001MSRP: $140 USDRelease Date: Spring 2026Where to Buy: NikeThe Godfather of Streetwear is officially putting his spin on Nike’s latest footwear innovation. Following the highly successful debut of the neuroscience-backed Nike Mind collection earlier this year, Hiroshi Fujiwara has offered fans a detailed look at the upcoming fragment design x Nike Mind 002. Reimagining the recovery-focused sneaker through his distinct lens of industrial minimalism, the legendary Japanese designer has elevated the silhouette with premium materials, swapping out the standard construction for a sleek, highly breathable Flyknit upper.The core identity of the Nike Mind lineage lies in its proprietary footbed platform. Both the 001 slip-on and the 002 sneaker utilize 22 independent foam nodes—acting like small sensory pistons—that map directly to anatomical pressure points to theoretically engage neural pathways and promote relaxation. For this highly anticipated collaboration, Fujiwara maintains all of those core therapeutic benefits while completely overhauling the shoe’s visual language.The “Particle Grey” iteration is a masterclass in restrained, monochromatic design. The transition to a full Flyknit upper not only provides a modernized, sock-like fit, but also adds a lightweight, highly breathable dimension to the silhouette. To ensure secure support without unnecessary bulk, the design incorporates exposed Flywire cables connected to a minimalist, pulley-style lacing system.As with all fragment design collaborations, the magic is in the subtle details. The chunky, sculpted grey midsole is stamped with stark “FRAGMENT CONCEPT TESTING” typography, leaning heavily into Fujiwara’s recent lab-inspired aesthetic. The 22 underfoot sensory pods are distinctly tinted in the brand’s signature royal blue, providing a hidden pop of color, while the iconic double lightning bolt logo appears discreetly on the raised heel and insoles.Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast

After first being unveiled during NBA All-Star Weekend in Los Angeles and showcased at Taylor’s “No Thorns, No Rose” activation, Nike has finally released official images of the Teyana Taylor x Air Jordan 3 “Concrete Rose.” Building on the massive success of her previous footwear work, this upcoming release evolves her signature floral theme into a highly refined, deeply symbolic masterpiece that celebrates her journey from the streets of Harlem to becoming a global creative force.The “Concrete Rose” Air Jordan 3 is a masterclass in visual contrast and premium execution. Moving away from traditional color blocking, the sneaker arrives dressed in a muted green leather upper that provides a grounded and highly versatile aesthetic. Beautifully mirroring the concept of strength built under immense pressure, this calm green tone is paired directly with a rugged, textured concrete-like midsole.Rather than overpowering the classic Air Jordan 3 silhouette, Taylor quietly reinforces her inspiring theme through thoughtful, elevated details. The design incorporates subtle rose-inspired accents and luxurious metallic gold touches to add incredible depth. Flipping the shoe to the back, classic Nike Air branding is prominently featured on the heel, keeping the bold design firmly rooted in Jordan Brand’s original heritage.As with any Teyana Taylor project, the storytelling continues well beneath the surface. The inner lining of the sneaker is decorated with handwritten phrases, including “The World Is Different Here” and “Rose From Concrete,” which directly reinforce the deeply personal message behind the collaboration. Taking the floral motif a step further, the interior insoles are covered in intricate rose petal graphics.To complete the premium experience, the sneakers arrive in special-edition packaging that seamlessly continues the narrative. The custom gold Jordan-branded box features a unique display window showcasing a rose graphic, along with beautifully matching interior artwork. The Teyana Taylor x Air Jordan 3 “Concrete Rose” will officially release on March 14, 2026, via Nike.com and select global retailers.Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast

The upper is constructed from premium leather to offer the silhouette’s signature durability and structure, but the real standout feature is the meticulous application of sparkling Swarovski crystals dotted across the exterior. Arriving in a tonal Vast Grey and Photon Dust color scheme, the crystal embellishments give the all-time favorite sneaker a lavish, elevated look.Beyond the glitz, the design remains true to its comfortable and functional roots.

Name: Converse SHAI 001 “Camo”Colorway: Green/Brown/Black/TanSKU: A19839CMSRP: $130 USDRelease Date: Spring 2026Where to Buy: ConverseShai Gilgeous-Alexander is not just entirely rewriting the NBA record books—he is also continuing to build one of the most exciting signature sneaker lines on the market. As the Oklahoma City Thunder superstar finds himself on the absolute precipice of basketball history, having recently tied Wilt Chamberlain’s legendary record of 126 consecutive 20-plus point games, he is officially gearing up for war. Perfectly timed for the grueling playoff stretch ahead, Converse has unveiled the highly anticipated Converse SHAI 001 “Camo.”While previous releases like the luxurious “Truffle” and the upcoming “Blush” iterations leaned heavily into SGA’s high-fashion, nonchalant tunnel style, the “Camo” colorway takes a distinctly aggressive approach. The stealthy new sneaker covers the entire upper—including the tongue—in a nearly invisible coat of green, tan, brown, and black camouflage that looks like it was pulled straight from the racks of a vintage army surplus store.To perfectly balance the busy all-over print, Converse anchored the silhouette with highly considered, solid-colored details. The shoe’s sleek signature zipper cover, plush sockliner, and durable rubber outsole are all executed in a rich, solid olive green. Adding a touch of premium, structural texture, a shiny olive green hit securely wraps around the heel stabilizer. Rounding out the battle-ready aesthetic, bold black Shai logos are prominently stamped across the tongue and insole, ensuring the reigning MVP candidate’s branding stands out against the militaristic backdrop.Whether he is crossing up elite defenders to secure his history-making 127th consecutive 20-point game or marching his team deep into the Western Conference playoffs, this rugged silhouette proves that SGA’s footwear game is just as lethal as his offensive arsenal.Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast

SummaryNike just announced the Air Liquid Max as this year’s signature Air Max Day modelThe shoe features a contoured, point-loaded Air unit and a sleek upper with three-layer textured printingLook out for it to drop on Air Max Day (March 26) at an expected price of $230 USDIntroducing the Nike Air Liquid Max, the next chapter of Air’s legacy. Teased by Yeat in a music video a couple of weeks ago, we speculated as to whether this could be the signature Air Max Day model for 2026. Now, following Hiroshi Fujiwara’s fragment design collab reveal, the Swoosh has officially announced the silhouette.When designing the Air Liquid Max, Nike designers enlisted a less-is-more approach to each element. For the Air unit, the key was replicating the feeling of walking on air as best as possible. This is accomplished thanks to the contoured Air unit, which is both flexible and low to the ground by design. Point-loaded Air distribution ensures it’s only present where needed. As a result, negative space is present, creating unique geometry for the tooling and a lighter build.As for the upper, its futuristic mesh upper features a three-layer textured printing that not only adds visual depth, but provides support as well. This tactile component nods to the poison dart frog via its nanoprint. The dangerous amphibian is known to use color as a warning system, which is conveyed through the intricate pattern. Its launch colorway embraces striking greens atop a black base, combining with chrome Swooshes and a tinted, translucent outsole.Get ready, the Nike Air Liquid Max is set to debut on shelves this Air Max Day (March 26) via Nike SNKRS and select retailers at an expected starting price of $230 USD. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Nike Sportswear (@nikesportswear)Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast
