nike air rift plus | Nike Space Hippie
Nike Space Hippie is a four-model footwear collection inspired by life on Mars. Unveiled February 2020 alongside plans for the Tokyo Olympics, the line officially launched on June 11th, 2020.
Created from “Space Junk,” the four-sneaker line features Space Waste Yarn uppers created from approximately 85% polyester recycled from plastic bottles, clothing, and yarn scraps. Noah Murphy-Reinhertz, Sustainability Design Lead for Nike, also oversaw the collection's arguably most important feature: Crater Foam. Visually, the cushioning material patent like a broken-off chunk of the moon or space debris. Its speckled-finish is made possible through the Swoosh's upcycling process: rubber grind from manufacturing floors is injected into the foam. Thus far, this tooling has only appeared in either chambray-like or light lint hues. Further advancing NIKE, Inc.'s “nike air rift plus” initiative, insoles across the “wearable trash” are produced from ZoomX foam scraps left over from the game-changing NEXT% line of products.
