Description
The Nike Mind 001 Slide Solar Red pushes the Mind concept into full statement mode, wrapping its neuroscience-inspired tooling in a vivid Solar Red/Hyper Crimson/Black/Chrome palette. The upper, midsole and sidewalls arrive in a saturated red tone, set off by reflective chrome Swooshes and black hits that emphasise its experimental, almost sci‑fi profile. Designed as a pregame and recovery slide, it keeps the same sleek mule shape and perforated, flexible build that fits easily into everything from training sets to track pants and shorts.
Underfoot, the Mind 001 tech uses 22 independent foam nodes that rise up towards the insole as you step, gently pressing into different areas of the foot to activate sensory receptors and encourage calm, focus and present-moment awareness. The textured insole mirrors the node layout, enhancing that light “foot massage” feel reported by wearers, while a soft foam platform and grippy outsole pattern make it comfortable for longer wear around the house, in the tunnel or on travel days. Despite its bold colour, the slide remains surprisingly versatile, pairing well with neutrals and black for a sharp, athletic look.
As a curated artifact within the Nike Mind line, the Solar Red slide embodies the fusion of sports science, bold design and daily ritual, ideal for athletes and creatives who want their recovery footwear to feel as expressive as their game-day kit. Marked by the code HQ4307-600, it has quickly become one of the most recognisable Mind colourways thanks to its high-impact red finish and futuristic detailing.
Care and Maintenance
To ensure the longevity of your sneakers, we recommend a considered approach to their care. Regular maintenance is key to preserving their aesthetic integrity and material quality.
- General Care: For leather and synthetic uppers, gently wipe away dirt with a soft, damp cloth and a mild cleaning solution. Laces can be hand-washed separately. Allow the sneakers to air-dry naturally, away from direct heat or sunlight, to maintain the structure and quality of the materials.
- Suede & Nubuck: These delicate materials require specific attention. Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove surface dirt, always brushing in the same direction. For stubborn marks, a specialist suede eraser is recommended. Avoid water, as it can stain and alter the texture. To protect against the elements, a light application of a waterproofing spray designed for suede can be beneficial.
