Nike Golf Debuts the New Lunar Control Shoe

Nike Golf is introducing the new Nike Lunar Control shoe that provides stability and comfort in a lightweight package.  The Nike Lunar Control features a familiar saddle design fused with innovative materials and construction technologies found in Nike running shoes.  Those key technologies are Nike’s Lunarlon Foam and Nike Flywire.
 
Developed in the Nike Sports Research Lab, Lunarlon Foam is extremely light and responsive thus allowing golfers the freedom to focus on their game, and forget about what’s on their feet – a Nike Golf obsession. The Lunarlon Foam is encased within a supportive Phylon carrier in the midsole.  The dual-density foam is both durable and highly responsive, providing a unique blend of ultra-plush cushioning and optimal support.
 
Also featured is the lightweight stability layer, achieved through Nike Flywire technology. An ultra-strong yet ultra-lightweight construction of high-tensile fibres combine with a TPU overlay to provide a dynamic and supportive fit in the midfoot that won’t stretch out over time.
 
Nike Golf collaborated with Nike athlete and Tour professional Paul Casey, who provided key insights into developing this stable, comfortable and lightweight shoe. At the recent WGC-HSBC Champions, five Nike Golf athletes, including Paul Casey, Anthony Kim, Carl Pettersson, Charl Schwartzel and event winner Francesco Molinari all debuted Nike Golf’s new Nike Lunar Control golf shoe.
 
The Nike Lunar Control has a waterproof, leather upper that is reinforced by an additional waterproof surface treatment. Nike’s second-generation Power Platform outsole incorporates an additional second channel in the outsole to allow for greater natural motion and smoother weight transfer for more power through impact with every swing.  The Nike Lunar Control is available at retail on January 1, 2011.
