Bode x Nike Cultivate Nostalgia with the Bode Rec. Collection

The crew at Bode, led by Emily Adams and Bode Aujla, have teamed up with the big dogs over at Nike. Yep, the same Nike that’s been backing athletes and sports for as long as we can remember. And now? They’re dropping the Bode Rec. Collection, a collaboration that’s got us all kinds of hyped.

Treating us to a cheeky sneak peek of the upcoming Bode Rec. Collection in 2023, the pages of the luxe label’s FW24 lookbook got people talking about the partnership. Fast forward, and now we’re getting up close and personal with not one, but two killer Nike Astrograbber colourways, plus a clothing line up. We’re spoiled for choice!

Closer Look at the Bode x Nike Astrograbber…

‘Black’ (FJ9821-001) & ‘Natural’ (FQ6892-100)

Yes, you heard it right, the Nike Astrograbber is making a comeback! Born from the brains of Bowerman and San Diego Chargers’ quarterback Dan Fouts, the silhouette has been off the radar for just over five decades. But, with the power of Bode, the retro is making a timely comeback, in two sleek colourways of ‘Black’ and ‘Natural’.

“The Astrograbber seemed a perfect fit for this collaboration, as it marks a moment in the 1970s that was pivotal in the history of both Nike and American sports.” – Bode

The ‘Black’ iteration offers a leather upper with off-white accents. Meanwhile, the ‘Natural’ colourway has a mesh, knit upper giving it a unique vibe. Charms gracefully hang from the laces, a distinctive touch honouring the label’s eclectic aesthetic. Sensational stuff. Alongside the Astrograbber, Bode’s dropping a fresh lineup of threads – track jackets, tees, and shorts that’ll make you rethink sportswear altogether.

Wondering what sparked this iconic alliance? According to Bode Aujla, it’s all about her old man’s love for team sports, the pride of student athletes, and the impact they have on communities. Plus, Nike’s reputation for innovation and the legendary duo of Bowerman and Phil Knight which sealed the deal.

Bode x Nike Astrograbber Set to Take Over the Streets?

Bode shook things up by debuting collection across a nostalgic body of art, as well as some streetstyle snaps of none other than Kaia Gerber. Seen strutting the streets in the ‘Black’ colourway, it seems like the American actress might be the first to rock these vintage Nike kicks outside! Her nod got Bode so hyped that they spilled the beans about the release date over on their IG. Thanks Kaia!
