FAQs
What are the primary recycled materials used in the Nike Space Hippie 01 Wolf Grey?
The primary recycled materials include 'Space Waste Yarn' (from recycled plastic bottles and fabric scraps) for the upper, and Zoom X foam waste for the insoles. The Crater Foam midsole also incorporates recycled content.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to Nike's official size chart. It is recommended to check reviews for fit information, as some users find these shoes run true to size, while others suggest sizing up or down depending on foot width.
Are these shoes suitable for athletic performance?
The Nike Space Hippie 01 is designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear. While lightweight and comfortable, they are not intended for high-impact athletic activities or serious training.
What is the difference between the Space Hippie 01 and other models in the collection?
Each model in the Space Hippie collection has a unique silhouette and construction, although all share the commitment to using recycled materials. The '01' specifically features a Flyknit upper and Crater Foam midsole.
How durable is the Crater Foam midsole?
The Crater Foam midsole is designed for cushioning and durability for everyday use. However, like all footwear, its longevity depends on usage intensity and care.
Can I machine wash these shoes?
It is not recommended to machine wash the Nike Space Hippie 01. Hand washing with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method for cleaning.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
Adjust the tonal round laces to achieve a more secure or relaxed fit. Consider the sock thickness you typically wear.
Squeaking noise during wear
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Ensure the insoles are properly seated. If the noise persists, a small amount of powder under the insole might help, or it may resolve with continued wear.
Discoloration on the upper
For minor scuffs, try cleaning with a damp cloth. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight which can cause fading.

Care: To maintain the condition of your Nike Space Hippie 01 Wolf Grey:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to gently clean the 'Space Waste Yarn' upper. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the recycled fibers.
- Midsole and Outsole: Wipe down the Crater Foam midsole and rubber outsole with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly.
- Insoles: If removable, clean insoles separately using a damp cloth. Ensure they are completely dry before reinserting.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can affect the materials.
