Late last month, images of Apron Records’ collaborative Nike Air 180 hit the internet courtesy of the brand’s founder, Steven Julien. The pair he initially previewed came in a deep green color palette, featured exotic materials, and added branding details. After announcing the release date of March 8 for this pair, Julien again took to Instagram to show the F&F iteration that will be limited to just 300 pairs, titled Bloodline.
This F&F pair retains the same construction as the Dark Atomic Teal and comes in a mixture of team red, fossil rose, and pink oxford across the leather, fuzzy suede, and TPU upper. Team Red takes over the leather overlays along the mudguard and midfoot, while the fuzzy suede base layer that extends back to the collar takes on a slightly different shade of red. Golden accents pop on the custom razor Apron Records-branded lace dubrae, the 180 text on the tongue tag, and the razor logo applied to the insole.
A faux reptile skin Swoosh rests on the midfoot, working back toward the tan heel overlay containing Apron Records and Nike logos in gold. The metallic rose gold overlay along the heel and the fuzzy red terrycloth lace set finish the upper. Underfoot sits a foam midsole in a tonal tan hue, containing an Air 180 in the heel and a black rubber outsole.
The Apron Records x Nike Air 180 Bloodline will release on March 8, 2025, through Apron Records and will be limited to 300 pairs. Available in men’s sizing, the retail price is $150.
