Nike x Bode - Astrograbber SP Green Low Top Sneakers

The unisex Nike x Bode Astrograbber SP low top sneakers in Green pay homage to one of Nike’s earliest and most influential designs. Originally developed in the 1960s in response to the rise of artificial turf, the Astrograbber was a groundbreaking innovation from Nike co-founder Bill Bowerman, who pioneered the waffle sole by experimenting with rubber in a waffle iron to enhance traction.

The Astrograbber gained legendary status when it debuted on the field and was featured on the cover of Sports Illustrated in 1974, solidifying its place in sneaker and sports history. The original design was crafted in leather, followed by a lightweight mesh version that offered increased breathability and agility.

This special collaboration with Bode includes a historical football charm, a reproduction of the commemorative charms given to high school and collegiate team members in the 1930s-1940s. With its blend of vintage sports heritage and contemporary craftsmanship, the Nike x Bode Astrograbber SP stands as both a nostalgic tribute and a timeless statement sneaker.
