FAQs
What makes the Nike Space Hippie 04 sustainable?
The shoe is constructed using a significant amount of recycled materials, including recycled polyester yarns made from plastic bottles, recycled foam from manufacturing scrap, and recycled rubber in the outsole.
Is this shoe suitable for running?
While lightweight and comfortable, the Space Hippie 04 is primarily designed for lifestyle wear and casual activities. For intensive running, consider specialized Nike running shoes.
How do I find the right size?
Refer to Nike's official sizing chart for accurate measurements. This model is designed for adult males, and the UK size 12 is specified for this variant.
Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
It is recommended to avoid wearing the shoes in heavy rain or wet conditions as the recycled materials may not be fully waterproof and prolonged exposure to moisture can affect their longevity.
What is the warranty period for Nike shoes?
Nike typically offers a limited warranty against manufacturing defects. Please refer to the official Nike website or your point of purchase for specific warranty details applicable to your region.
How durable are the recycled materials?
The recycled materials are engineered for durability comparable to traditional shoe components, but care should be taken to avoid excessive abrasion or harsh treatment.
What other colorways are available?
The Space Hippie series comes in various colorways, including options like 'Yellow' and different shades of green, though availability may vary by retailer and region.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight
Wear with thin socks initially and allow the materials to break in. Ensure you have the correct size as per the size chart.
Slight odor from recycled materials
Air out the shoes in a well-ventilated area. Use a shoe deodorizer if necessary.
Uneven texture on the surface
This is a characteristic of the recycled materials used and is normal. It does not affect the shoe's performance or structural integrity.
Laces not staying tied
Tie the laces with a secure knot. Consider replacing the laces with a material that offers better grip if the issue persists.
