TLDR: The Nike Astrograbber ‘Soft Yellow’ will be released on 25 July 2025 for €130 – a retro revival with historic football flair, summery colours and Bowerman vibes. With the return of the Astrograbber, Nike is bringing a genuine old-school football boot from the 1970s back onto the streets. Following the successful Bode collaborations in 2024 and 2025, the silhouette is finally making its comeback as a regular release – in two fresh summer colourways, including the eye-catching ‘Soft Yellow’ version.
The upper of the Astrograbber is made of smooth suede in a delicate ‘Soft Yellow’, while black accents on the lacing system and branding provide contrast. The classic Nike logos in orange and black on the tongue and heel also bring back the 70s vibes. But the real star is the sole: the rectangular outsole, originally designed for Astroturf fields, is still a distinctive feature today. It may no longer be intended for performance, but it definitely has character.
The Astrograbber was originally developed in 1974 by Bill Bowerman in response to the new artificial turf revolution in US sports. What was considered a technical innovation at the time is now a coveted archive piece for retro fans, and that's exactly what makes it so appealing.
When is the Nike Astrograbber ‘Soft Yellow’ being released?
The ‘Soft Yellow’ will be released on 25 July 2025 for 130 € and is part of a summer duo that also includes an ‘Alumina’ colourway. Both versions deliver a genuine vintage feel with a modern twist.
