Last summer, Bode made history by bringing the legendary Astrograbber back from the archives. Originally released in '74, this silhouette was designed by none other than Nike co-founder Bill Bowerman and was one of the first football shoes ever to be fitted with a Waffle sole. If you missed out on the Bode collab, the all-new Nike Astrograbber Soft Yellow might just be the perfect consolation prize.
Dropping alongside the Fir colorway that we got a sneak peek of last week, this updated Astrograbber swaps out the traditional canvas and leather builds for buttery nubuck. Not only does it feel incredibly premium, but it looks the part too.
Nike Astrograbber Soft Yellow
The Soft Yellow upper is contrasted by a sharp black Swoosh that cuts across both the lateral and medial sides. The OG orange tongue tag remains, just like on the pairs from back in the day, and each one comes with an extra set of laces so you can really switch things up to suit your style.
Of course, the star of the show is still the sole. As one of the first football shoes to feature Bowerman’s now-iconic waffle outsole, the Astrograbber helped lay the foundation for modern sports footwear. Five decades later, it still looks as fresh as ever – rugged, functional, and laced with history. The sole adds just the right amount of retro flair without sacrificing wearability, making it the ideal blend of past and present.
Even though the Nike Astrograbber Soft Yellow is officially scheduled to drop in Fall 2025, it’s a silhouette that feels made for spring and summer wear. Expect it to land in unisex sizing via Nike and select retailers online and in-store.
