The Nike Air 180 'Bluebird' from 1991 Returns Soon

Nike is set to revisit its archives with the return of the Air 180 'Bluebird,' one of the silhouette’s most iconic original colorways.

This marks the first-ever retro release of the vibrant design, making it a must-have for long-time fans of the classic running model.

The 'Bluebird' colorway combines a mix of off-white suede and white nylon on the base, creating a clean backdrop for the vibrant accents that define the design. Periwinkle blue adds a pop of color to the Swoosh, lining, tongue piping, and toe portion of the outsole, while teal brings balance to the heel counter, Air unit border, and tongue branding. This retro revival stays true to its roots, delivering the same bold yet timeless aesthetic that made the original so beloved.

While Nike has yet to confirm an exact release date, the Air 180 'Bluebird' is expected to drop throughout Spring 2025. In the meantime, enjoy product shots of the 1991 reissue below—courtesy of size? and JD Sports.
