John Carter may have met a princess on Mars, but Nike is looking to rule the moon – or at least the golf course with its new Nike Lunar Empress women’s golf shoes. These don’t feature any rocket boosters, but to feature innovative technology including Nike Lunarlon, Dynamic Flywire and Integrated Traction meaning they’ll offer the benefits of natural motion, cushioned comfort, control and breathability combined in a waterproof shoe.
“We’ve loaded up the new Lunar Empress with performance features designed to benefit golfers of all levels who want a flexible yet supportive shoe with amazing comfort,” says Lee Walker, Nike Golf Global Footwear Marketing Director. “It’s been fun working with golfers during product testing for the Lunar Empress and seeing their reactions to the shoe – how excited they are to welcome the fresh, sporty design to their ensemble and also their surprise at just how light it is.”
The shoe is so light, at just 7.4 ounces per shoe, that it might make wearers think they’re walking in lower gravity. Each step will also be softened as these offer responsive, full-length Lunarlon cushioning that runs from heel to toe.
