FAQs

What percentage of the Nike Space Hippie 01 is made from recycled materials?

The Nike Space Hippie 01 is made with approximately 75% recycled materials by weight, including recycled polyester yarn, recycled foam, and recycled rubber.

Are these shoes suitable for running or intense sports?

The Nike Space Hippie 01 is primarily designed for casual wear and light activities. While comfortable and offering some cushioning, they do not provide the specialized support or structure required for intense athletic performance like running or basketball.

How should I clean the speckled Crater Foam sole?

Gently wipe the Crater Foam sole with a damp cloth. For more stubborn dirt, you can use a mild soap solution sparingly and wipe clean with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Do the shoes come in different colors?

Yes, the Nike Space Hippie 01 is available in various colorways, often featuring combinations of black, grey, and navy, with the signature speckled sole.

What does 'Space Hippie' refer to in the shoe's name?

The 'Space Hippie' line represents Nike's exploration of sustainability in footwear, utilizing extreme waste-reducing measures and recycled materials to create a silhouette inspired by life on Mars.

Is the fit true to size?

Nike generally recommends checking their official size guide and measuring your foot length. If your measurement falls between two sizes, Nike advises choosing the larger size for the Space Hippie 01 due to its unique material composition.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Measure your foot length and compare it with Nike's official size guide. Due to the nature of recycled materials, some variation can occur. If between sizes, Nike recommends choosing the larger size.

Visible variations in material texture

This is normal and expected due to the use of recycled materials. Each shoe has a unique appearance resulting from the repurposed components. Embrace the distinctive look.

Traction seems insufficient on wet surfaces

The recycled rubber outsole provides good traction for general use, but like most casual sneakers, performance on very wet or slippery surfaces may be reduced. Exercise caution in such conditions.

Upper material feels stiff initially

The "Space Yarn" upper is designed to be breathable and flexible. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in and conform to your foot's shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

The Nike Space Hippie 01 requires no setup. They are ready to wear straight out of the box.

Compatibility:

These sneakers are designed for adult use and are compatible with standard clothing attire for casual and athletic-inspired looks. They are suitable for a wide range of foot shapes, but due to the unique material construction, it's advisable to consult Nike's sizing chart for the most accurate fit.

Care:

To maintain the integrity and appearance of your Nike Space Hippie 01:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or a damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt and dust from the recycled yarn upper. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: A damp cloth is usually sufficient for cleaning the Crater Foam midsole and rubber outsole. For tougher stains, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
  3. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Using a shoe tree can help maintain their shape.
