FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the Nike Space Hippie 04 generally fits true to standard UK sizing for adults.
Can I use these for running?
These are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers; they are suitable for light activity but not for long-distance or high-intensity running.
How do I clean the purple fabric?
Use a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water to gently wipe the surface. Air dry away from direct heat.
What makes these sustainable?
They are constructed using 'space junk'—recycled waste materials, including plastic bottles and textile scraps.
Is the material waterproof?
No, the breathable mesh upper is not waterproof and may absorb moisture in heavy rain.
Troubleshooting
Material feels stiff initially
Wear the shoes indoors for short periods to allow the recycled materials to naturally conform to your foot shape.
Surface debris trapped in the mesh
Use a soft-bristled brush or a gentle tap to dislodge particles; avoid pulling on the fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nike Space Hippie 04 trainers remain in top condition, proper care is essential. Since the upper is made from specialized recycled fibers, it is best to spot-clean with a soft brush and mild detergent rather than machine washing, which can damage the structural integrity of the fabric. Avoid exposing the shoes to extreme heat or prolonged direct sunlight, which can alter the colour vibrancy of the purple finish. Ensure you are wearing standard athletic socks to maintain the best fit for your UK 8.5 size.
