Nike Flyknit Lunar 3

****DISCLAIMER: everyone's feet are shaped differently, and because I say that this shoe works or doesn't work for me, doesn't mean that it'll work for you. I intend on telling you about the structure and feel of the shoe and giving my opinion. Take it as you may.***
Nike Flyknit Lunar 3:

Category: Neutral high cushion 

Fit: Socklike around the entire foot. The flyknit upper hugs the foot and contours to the shape. Pretty comfortable.
Cushioning: Nike's Lunarlon foam, soft, but not too soft. Actually very comfortable.

Heel to toe drop: 10 mm

Weight: 6.5 oz

Price: $150

Comparable shoes: Asics Nimbus, Adidas Energy Boost, Brooks Glycerin

Company says: The Nike Flyknit Lunar 3 Women's Running Shoe pairs plush cushioning with an ultra-lightweight, incredibly strong Flyknit upper to help keep you comfortable—and keep you going—for miles.

I say: This shoe is nice. I had tried on the Lunar Flyknit 2 last year and really didn't like it all that much. The early flyknit wan not all that comfortable, and the lunarlon cushioning, in my opinion, was too soft. It felt good to kick around in, however, I did not want to run in them. The new Lunar Flyknit 3 is much more comfortable. I love the way that it contours to the foot with the updated Flykit upper, and the Lunarlon cushion this model still has that soft feel, however, this time it is not too soft. I still feel like I have some control in this shoe. The weight is also a great factor of this shoe. For being a high cushioned shoe, the Lunar is extremely lightweight. Overall, a great shoe.

Not too shabby looking either!
