Everyone knows how hard it can be sometimes to motivate yourself to workout – and it can be even harder when you have shoes that don’t look and feel right. But your slow start to a workout will take off with the Nike LunarGlide+ 2 Women’s Running Shoe. This elite running shoe is all about comfort, support, and fit for anyone who demands only the best from their athletic apparel.
This has been the perfect workout shoe for me and I have worn it for all types of cardio, weight training, and even leisurely outdoor sports. Support comes in all forms in this shoe and you can really feel it. There is plenty of room in them but not so much that my foot is sliding around, thanks to the structural support of the Flywire paneling on the sides, heel, and toe. Lunarlon cushioning has been my favorite part because it provides me with a plush spring that makes running long distances bearable. My old running shoes always leave the bottoms of my feet achy and tense, especially in the heels. The sole is made of a combination of firm and soft foam, while the midsole acts as the stability agent without being too stiff. My feet have never been happier!
Consumers love the breathability, light weight, and variety of bright electric colors too. You’ll never go unnoticed! Runners even claim that they haven’t experienced knee pains or blisters since they started training with this shoe. The LunarGlide+ 2 does run a little small, so consider going a half size bigger when trying them on. The shape is a little narrower as well, but not to an extent where it constricts your foot.
I found all the benefits of the LunarGlide to be worth the extra money. Athletic shoes are the one area where you shouldn’t cheat yourself in because the wrong shoe can instigate injuries or dissatisfaction in quality. Nike may be on the more expensive side, but they always seem to make the best – and the LunarGlide+ 2 Running Shoe is no exception.
Want an even lighter, more flexible shoe that fits like a glove? Try the Nike Free Run+ 2 Women’s Running Shoe and you’ll feel like you are running barefoot on a cloud.
