Product Information
Full details
The Nike Space Hippie 01 'Black Volt' is designed for adults seeking a stylish and environmentally conscious sneaker for everyday wear. Its primary benefit lies in its construction from recycled materials, offering a unique aesthetic combined with remarkable comfort. A potential caveat is the bootie-like construction, which might not suit everyone's preference for fit. This sneaker merges retro and futuristic design elements, featuring a knitted upper made from recycled polyester, a 'crater' foam midsole with Nike Grind rubber, and a ZoomX foam insole for exceptional cushioning.

FAQs
What percentage of the Nike Space Hippie 01 is made from recycled materials?
The upper is made of 85% recycled polyester from plastic bottles, t-shirts, and discarded yarn, and the shoe as a whole is made with at least 50 percent recycled materials.
How does the ZoomX foam insole feel?
The ZoomX foam insole provides exceptional cushioning, similar to the feel found in Nike's high-performance running shoes, offering a very comfortable walking experience.
Is the 'Black Volt' colorway the only option available?
While the 'Black Volt' is a prominent colorway, the Nike Space Hippie series offers other color variations, such as grey and other combinations, often with slight material differences.
How should I clean the knitted upper?
Gently clean the knitted polyester upper with a soft brush or a damp cloth using mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These sneakers are primarily designed for everyday wear and walking. While they feature ZoomX foam for cushioning, they are not specifically engineered as performance running shoes.
What is Nike Grind rubber?
Nike Grind rubber is made from recycled shoe parts and other manufacturing scraps, providing durability and a unique speckled aesthetic to the outsole.
What is the fit like?
The shoe features a bootie-like construction for a snug, sock-like fit. It's recommended to try them on if possible or consider sizing up if you prefer a looser fit.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or snug
Ensure the laces are loosened before putting on the shoes. If the snug fit is due to the bootie construction, wearing thin socks might help. Consider trying a half-size up if the tightness persists and is uncomfortable.
Uneven wear on the sole
Check your gait and walking pattern. While the Nike Grind rubber is durable, uneven wear can indicate an issue with stride. Rotate wearing these shoes with other footwear to distribute wear.
Discoloration of recycled materials
Some variations in color are natural with recycled materials. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to minimize fading. Clean gently with a damp cloth as recommended.

Care:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or a damp cloth with mild soap to gently clean the knitted polyester upper. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
