Nike unveils its brand new addition to the Phantom Boot series with the female-led Phantom Luna silhouette that arrives just ahead of this year's Women's World Cup. This year, the global event is hosted in Australia and New Zealand. The new shoe is designed with traction and structure at the forefront to ensure that it is the right fit for female athletes.
The silhouette has a new circular stud pattern that can be seen along the toes, which is purposefully added for traction on the pitch. This element is dubbed the Cyslone 360 and it helps players move throughout the field with more precision and agility. Other new features of the shoe include the upper's latest design which is dubbed the Nike Asym Fit and is complete with Gripknit fabrications.
