Nike x Bode - Astrograbber SP Black Low Top Sneakers

The unisex Nike x Bode Astrograbber SP low top sneakers in Black reimagine one of Nike’s earliest waffle-soled designs with a vintage-inspired aesthetic. Originally developed in response to the rise of artificial turf in the 1960s, the Astrograbber was first introduced by Nike co-founder Bill Bowerman, whose innovative waffle sole design revolutionized sports footwear.

The first iteration of the Astrograbber made its mark on the field and was famously featured on the cover of Sports Illustrated in 1974, cementing its place in sneaker history. While the original was crafted in leather, a lighter mesh version followed shortly after, further refining its performance and comfort.

Honoring its roots in American football culture, this collaboration includes a historically inspired football charm—a reproduction of commemorative charms from the 1930s-1940s that were once awarded to high school and collegiate team members. With its blend of heritage craftsmanship and modern design, the Nike x Bode Astrograbber SP is a timeless statement piece for both sneaker collectors and history enthusiasts.
