How much recycled material is in the shoe?
The Nike Space Hippie 01 is made from at least 50% recycled materials by weight.

Do these come in other sizes?
Yes, the Nike Space Hippie 01 series is available in various sizes. This guide specifically covers the UK 9.5, but other sizes exist within the product line.
What kind of socks are best with these shoes?

Troubleshooting
Sizing feels slightly off
Ensure laces are adjusted correctly. Consider trying with different sock thicknesses. If persistent, consult Nike's sizing chart or try a different size if possible.
Material feels stiff initially
This is common with new footwear, especially those made with recycled components. Wear them for short periods initially to break them in gradually.
Discoloration on the upper
Wipe gently with a damp cloth. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or harsh chemicals which can degrade recycled materials.
Sole shows signs of wear
Ensure you are using them for their intended purpose (casual wear). Rotating footwear can help extend the life of the sole.
