Nike Lunar TR1

The Nike Lunar TR1 is a different concept of shoe. It is not exactly a running model but it is suitable for running. It's not a 100% fitness model but it's for training. It is an all-rounder. Nike calls it cross-training. We can use it for running outings, for going to the gym, for jumping, for moving fast, for training changes of pace or changes of direction...

On the one hand, the height of the shoe has been raised, differentiating it from the Nike Free models. They are also lighter than previous versions (266 gr in a size 10 USA).

Nike invented the cross-training category born out of an initiative to meet the needs of another multisport world. Twenty-five years later, Nike presents the new high-performance training shoe already worn by decathlon world champion Ashton Eaton, among others.

Its main features are great cushioning, excellent fit and good grip.

Nike Lunar TR1 offers a groundbreaking combination of design and innovation to give athletes the best training shoe ever made," says Nathan VanHook, Director of Design for Nike Athletic Training.

The type of exercises in the gym that we're looking at for our athletes include agility drills, directional changes, sprints and weight lifting on multiple surfaces that are demanding on the shoe and require solutions. So our goal era give athletes a shoe that combines lightweight traction, support and protection. The Nike Lunar TR1 is the result."

Stability and Traction

Getting an athlete to train closer to the ground by improving stability for example when lifting weights, increases traction and provides greater efficiency in quick changes of direction.

Protection and Cushioning

The cornerstone of the Nike Lunar TR1 is its Lunarlon foam. Since the launch of Lunarlon cushioning six years ago, this technology has evolved to offer a soft, lightweight ride and efficient cushioning.
