Beaverton, Oregon, United States: Perfect for summer’s longer days, warmer weather and extra hours on the golf course, Nike Golf has introduced two new footwear styles inspired by more than four decades of Nike’s deep roots in athletic shoe design.
Available from July 1, Nike Golf’s new Lunar Waverly and Lunar Mont Royal join the Lunar Clayton as part of the Versatility footwear family.
Nike Golf designers drew inspiration from Nike’s footwear heritage to create innovative styles inspired by iconic running and court sport silhouettes perfect for both on and off the golf course.
“The Lunar Waverly and Lunar Mont Royal were really inspired by classic Nike footwear styles, and we adapted those designs for athletes who want a golf shoe with versatile appeal,” said Carl Madore, Nike Golf Innovation Design Lead.
“These are shoes with incredible performance technology that are great for playing 18 holes or wearing before or after the round, too. You can hit balls at the driving range on your lunch break without ever changing your shoes. These styles are modelled after some of Nike’s first shoes but modernised to perform specifically for our sport.”
Since introducing Integrated Traction technology in its footwear in 2010, Nike Golf has continued to improve the tread design for a combination of incredible traction and off-course comfort.
The iconic Nike waffle sole featured on the Lunar Waverly and Lunar Mont Royal provides a more aggressive tread for superior grip and control on course, while echoing Nike’s storied history in athletic footwear.
