TECHNICALLY the sneaker is the Space Hippie 01-04, but the colorway and collection is "This is Trash". As someone who only buys Nike to flip these days, I do not think i will be picking any of these up. The whole gimmick is the shoe is made up of recycled materials, but only 25% which is really low imo. Not really worth bragging about.

The 03 looks the best.

The whole thing is p cool conceptually. Don't think I'd actually buy or wear any of them though.

Honestly had no idea the recycled material was only 25% of it. That's kinda shitty.

I like the recycling materials part. Its just that other brands have been doing it already and doing it better, and Nike is super late to the party. 25% is not exactly a good amount of recycled material either. Should be much more. Not to mention the collars of the sneakers look...a bit flimsy. I know they knit but it looks paper thin.

EDIT: okay my mistake, each sneaker has a different amount of recycled materials. The 03 has a 45% recycled material ratio which imo is decent, but not great

Earthbound wasn't established. They'll probably do fine. Unless these shoes are way uglier than the normal ugly people buy. Or not ugly enough? I really don't know how shoe fashion works.

Shoes that are absolutely hideous, such as the $895 Balenciaga Triple S often becomes popular because they are just so out there. These trashes are simply bad so they will flop if there is a big stock imo.

They pretty goofy, but these were worse.

The filling of the sole is recycled materials, and I heard when you take a step, you hear a whoosh. It sounds like air escaping the shoe every step. Nice

Depends on the sneakers. If we talking recycled sneakers, Adidas has the Parley collection which goes from between 140-200 usually. But they are made from at least 75% ocean waste plastic, usually in the form of plastic bottles intercepted before they get dumped into the ocean. More worth it imo
