Hiroshi Fujiwara has unveiled a first look at the fragment design x Nike Mind 002, applying his signature industrial minimalism to the Swoosh’s latest neuroscience-driven footwear. Following the debut of the Mind collection earlier this year, this potential collaboration retools the silhouette with premium materials and understated branding.
The teaser image highlights a significant departure from the inline model’s woven mesh construction, opting instead for a tonal black Flyknit upper that offers a sock-like fit. Fujiwara’s influence is immediately visible on the chunky tooling, where the standard sidewall is stamped with “FRAGMENT CONCEPT TESTING” in stark white typography – a hallmark of his recent “lab-style” aesthetics.
Nike’s Mind lineage, which launched with the 001 mule and 002 sneaker, is built on a proprietary platform featuring 22 independent foam nodes. These sensors are designed to stimulate underfoot pressure points, theoretically engaging neural pathways to aid mental focus and relaxation. While the “Concept Testing” label suggests a prototype phase, the design aligns with Fujiwara’s expanding roster of Nike projects, joining the previously teased Mind 001 and Book 2 collaboration. Take a first look at the fragment design x Nike Mind 002 above.
