FAQs

What makes the Nike Space Hippie 01 sustainable?

The Space Hippie 01 is made from at least 50% recycled materials by weight, including recycled polyester yarn made from plastic bottles, recycled foam, and recycled rubber.

How should I clean my Space Hippie 01 sneakers?

It is recommended to spot clean them with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid machine washing or immersing them in water to preserve the materials.

Are these shoes suitable for running or intense sports?

The Space Hippie 01 is designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear. While comfortable for everyday activities, they are not optimized for high-impact sports or competitive running.

How true-to-size are the Nike Space Hippie 01?

Generally, the Nike Space Hippie 01 fits true to size. However, individual fit can vary. If you are between sizes, considering the unique materials, it might be helpful to try them on if possible.

What is the 'Black Wheat' colorway?

The 'Black Wheat' colorway refers to the shoe's primary black upper with subtle accents of wheat or light brown, offering a stylish and earthy aesthetic.

Can I wear these shoes in wet conditions?

While the rubber sole offers some protection, the recycled upper materials are not waterproof. They are best suited for dry to mildly damp conditions. If they get wet, allow them to air dry completely.

What does the 'turning trash into treasure' concept mean for this shoe?

This concept highlights Nike's design philosophy of using waste materials that would otherwise end up in landfills and transforming them into high-performance, stylish footwear.

Troubleshooting

Slight discomfort during initial wear

This is common with new shoes made from recycled materials. Wear them for short periods initially, gradually increasing wear time to allow them to break in and mold to your foot.

Color transfer from laces or upper

If the color transfers, ensure the shoes are completely dry. For minor transfer, a gentle wipe with a slightly damp cloth may help. Avoid prolonged contact with light-colored socks until the shoes are fully broken in.

Uneven texture on the sole or upper

The unique texture is a characteristic of the recycled materials used. Minor variations are normal and part of the shoe's design and sustainable manufacturing process.
