I don’t even think there is a heel counter – if present, it’s extremely flexible so as to barely be noticeable. There’s really not that much to say about it – it’s minimally structured – no overlays, no real support elements beyond Flywire strings that attach from the sole to the lace eyelets. The upper of the Lunartempo is really, really nice. The fit runs a bit small – I went up a half size in my pair, and would recommend doing so if you plan to try them out. Per Running Warehouse, the Nike Lunartempo weigh in at 6.8 oz, and stack heights are 26 mm heel, 18mm forefoot (8 mm drop). They’re a shoe that has grown on me with continued use, and I’ve been impressed by their versatility – it’s a shoe that should suit a wide variety of runners, and they should appeal to fans of shoes like the Saucony Kinvara, Skechers GoRun, and New Balance Zante/Boracay. The Lunartempo is a shoe that I heard raves about from fellow runners in the Running Shoe Geeks group on Facebook, and based on this feedback I couldn’t resist giving them a try. With a 8mm midsole offset, Lunar Tempo keeps runner closer to the ground while still offering foot and ankle protection.My mileage has been relatively low for the past few months as teaching (loving it!) and family responsibilities have taken up a lot of my time, but most of the miles I have run recently have been in the Nike Lunartempo (formerly called the Lunar Trainer – my pair still has this name printed on the tongue). You can instantly feel the use of the Lunar foam when trying on the shoes and after taking a few steps walking in the shoe. The foam itself is really soft on the bottom of the foot and from what Nike says is “30% lighter” than traditional Phylon foam used in most running and basketball sneakers.
The Lunar Foam really offers the runner a premium, well cushioned ride, ultimately meaning for longer runs. The sole of the Lunar Tempo is basically entirely foam, besides a few patches of rubber on the waffle-tred outsole for traction.
#NIKE LUNAR TEMPO FULL SIZE#
The toe box area near the forefoot is a little bit tight, most likely because of the use of dual Flywire cables on the upper, so I have advised runners and casual walkers to go up 1/2 a size or even a full size for a proper, comfortable fit. The inner sleeve of the shoe really hugs your foot when fully laced and works well to move with the foot when running. Nike made the the upper of the shoe very breathable with a mesh material and certain venerated zones and also included dual Flywire cables for each lace loop to really offer the runner the ultimate lock down when fully laced tight. The shoe features Dynamic Flywire cables down both the lateral and medial side of the shoe to really give the runner that locked in feel and extra support when running. The shoe is so light because it features a seamless Flymesh upper, similar to that of Nike Flyknit. The Lunar Tempo is extremely lightweight shoe, almost unbelievably light to the touch of the hands when you pick it up. This shoe was designed to help you train for races and for long distance runs, then when race day comes along, you should be running in the LunarRacer+ 3. The Lunar Tempo is a lightweight neutral training running shoe designed with a extremely cushioned ride in mind. For this edition of Andy’s Desk, I take a look at Nike Running’s Nike Lunar Tempo.
