We’re not ready for the summer to be over and cold weather to start moving in, but at least we have cocoa, fresh jackets, and holiday sneaker releases to look forward to. As Nike continues to put brain power into the Mind Collection, with various two-tone and gradient color combinations, a new women’s exclusive pair is ready for Christmas morning tip-toeing in icy blue and lemon yellow.
The Nike Mind 002 Work Blue (W) is the latest addition to the Mind Collection’s holiday release calendar, keeping up a highly sought-after drop schedule that’s seen sell-outs of nearly every colorway to hit shelves. Instead of mixing shades on the upper like some recent pairs, the Work Blue colorway keeps things simple with one color on the foam upper and another on the pressure point nodes built into the footbed.

Starting with an icy steel blue shade on the perforated one-piece upper and columned side panels, the colorway brings a hit of metallic shine on the gold side panel Swoosh. Underfoot, a bright lemon yellow shade pops on the 22 individual nodes meant to change your mental energy with every step.
The Nike Mind 002 Work Blue (W) will be released Holiday 2026 through Nike and select retailers in-store and online. Available in women’s sizing, the retail price is set at $145. For all the latest from Nike’s Mind collection, download the Sole Retriever App.
