Nike has been ridiculed for selling tatty looking trainers for a whopping £164.95.

Shoppers said they appear so grubby they like they are covered in mould.

Another added they are so dirty looking they look like a smoker’s lungs.

They are designed to be environmentally friendly.

The ISPA MindBody trainers are made from recycled materials.

And they have not been glued together meaning they can be reused.

But shoppers have mocked the design of them.

One named Teri said: “Yuk, they look mouldy.”

Ashley said: “The look like the lungs of a pack a day smoker.”

Another called Suzy added: “Prehistoric footwear.”

Hayley fumed: “Hideous.”

Yet one customer called Jonathan said: “One of the most comfortable shoes I own.

“Definitely would recommend.”

The Nike website reads: “From first look to first step, the ISPA MindBody is the new definition of R&R.

“The inviting and pillowy foam midsole is an oasis of sensations, while its light and airy Flyknit upper provides a sanctuary you won’t want to step away from.

“Guided by Nike’s circular design philosophy, a key feature to this concept is designing with product end of life in mind, which resulted in shoes that can be easily disassembled.

“No glue necessary—just a single cording system that holds it all together.

“When you’re done with your shoes, there’s no need to take them apart or throw them away.

“Simply drop ’em off at a participating Nike store and they’ll be given a new life through donation or recycling.”
