Following a look at the Nike ISPA MindBody Light Cream yesterday, another equally versatile colorway of the eye-catching silhouette from the Swoosh has surfaced with this White/Black pair. From first look to first step, the Nike ISPA MindBody is the new definition of R&R. The inviting and pillowy foam midsole is an oasis of sensations, while its light and airy Flyknit upper (made from recycled yarns) provides a sanctuary you won?t want to step away from. Bonus: In place of an insole, you?ll find lofted Flyknit underfoot for a brand-new sensation.

Guided by Nike?s circular design philosophy, each pair is constructed with interlocking components and the intent of using less materials. A key feature to this concept is designing with product end of life in mind, which resulted in shoes that can be easily disassembled. No glue necessary?just a single cording system that holds it all together. White and Black alternate evenly throughout this pair along with subtle hits of Barely Volt on the lacing system, branding, and toe and heel bumpers. Be on the lookout for this Nike ISPA MindBody to release in the coming weeks for $180.
