This Heated Nike Slide Is a Major Winter WFH Essential

Pushing the boundaries of post-game recovery, Nike connects with wellness tech titan Hyperice for a new high-tech wellness tool. Transforming thermal recovery into everyday footwear, the Swoosh introduces the Hyperice x Nike Air Zoom Hyperslide which will retail at $350.

This release follows last year's release of the NikeMIND slide, which focused on mental relaxation and tactile footbed sensory stimulation. Where NikeMIND targeted mental reset, the Hyperslide takes physical recovery to a mechanical level. 

By integrating active hardware into everyday slip-ons, Nike is signaling a major strategic shift to position itself as a tech-first shoe company. Instead of trying to turn the ship by doubling down on the retro design game (which it is already doing), the Swoosh is building wearable hardware.

The technology embedded inside the upper strap houses contrast-therapy heat elements and dynamic pneumatic compression nodes. Sounds like something that shouldn’t be on your foot, but it actually is quite simple. This setup actively warms key muscle groups and flushes out lactic acid, while onboard controls and Bluetooth syncing let you customize temperature and massage routines.

An Air Zoom footbed delivers responsive cushioning underfoot, supported by a durable rubber traction sole built for indoor-outdoor post-game wear.

The Hyperice x Nike Air Zoom Hyperslide signals a paradigm shift toward wearable wellness tech. Designed for elite athletes, we’re wondering how long it takes for this warming slide to become a fixture for WFH days and gamers.
