Nike's 'Lunar Bandon 3' is a Hybrid Shoe and Boot

— September 9, 2015 — Fashion
Nike Golf recently released an innovative all-weather shoe, the 'Lunar Bandon 3.' The shoe features a waterproof exterior with six spikes on its outsole for better traction and support on slippery surfaces.

The all-weather shoe is also lightweight and features Lunarlon for cushioning and a comfortable padded interior. In developing the Lunar Bandon 3, NIke wanted a shoe that can be used in all conditions that an athlete might encounter throughout the year.
