The Nike Flyknit Lunar2 is Nike's response to the success of last year's Nike Flyknit Lunar1+, a running shoe that wowed athletes with the strength and support it provided in a lightweight package. The new Flyknit Lunar2 blends the powerful, lightweight Nike Flyknit upper with the ultra-soft and responsive Nike Lunarlon cushioning.
The Nike Flyknit Lunar2 features more stretch than its predecessor for a better fit, while the outsole pattern is engineered to closely match how runners' feet naturally move. These designs were applied to Lunarlon foam to enhance its cushioning abilities and deliver increased flexibility.
The end result is a lightweight, high-performance running shoe that offers a near-perfect natural stride that will aid runners of all levels, from casual joggers to elite athletes.
The Nike Flyknit Lunar2 men's and women's shoes will be made available for purchase at Nike.com and select global retailers beginning Feb 6.
