Nike Space Hippie 01 Vast Grey Volt
156Space Hippie is a story of trash transformed. From the upper to the outsole, Space Hippie 01 is made of at least 50% recycled material by weight. The silhouette is part of an exploratory footwear collection constructed with Nike’s own “space junk”. The collection transforms scrap material from factory floors into a radical expression of circular design. The Nike Space Hippie Line includes the Nike Space Hippie 01, 02, 03 and 04. Every detail of the four initial Space Hippie silhouettes from material choices to methods of make to packaging, was chosen with consideration for its environmental impact.
“I’d say Space Hippie attacks the villain of trash,” says John Hoke, Nike Chief Design Officer. “It’s changed the way we look at materials, it’s changed the way that we look at the aesthetics of our product. It’s changed how we approach putting product together.”
