Nike is bringing back one of its most innovative performance technologies from the early 2000s to a new silhouette. We took a break to isolate ourselves from chaos and immerse into new terrain with the Nike Lunar Roam.
Outer space has inspired many innovations from Nike’s research and development team. The story of aerospace engineer M. Frank Rudy and his idea to encapsulate air in a polyurethane bubble is the stuff of legends.
In the pursuit of making things faster and lighter, Nike collaborated with the aerospace industry to develop another futuristic cushioning technology. After four years of research, the superlight and responsive Lunarlon was introduced on the Lunaracer ahead of the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games.
Well ahead of its time, Lunarlon is back with the Nike Lunar Roam. The new silhouette reinterprets the performance approach of the original Lunaracer with a new perspective.
The Nike Lunar Roam invites us to pause, exchange and explore. Creating a balance of style and function, the experimental design meets the requirements of everyday life in the city.
We took a break to isolate ourselves from chaos and explore new terrain with the Nike Lunar Roam. With the help of virtual reality, we immerse ourselves into the crater landscape of the moon.
To mark the launch of the Nike Lunar Roam, we are bringing the futuristic technology back down to Earth. The solebot at solebox Berlin has been transformed into a moon landscape, providing the community with an early look at the new silhouette.
The solebot x Lunar Roam installation will be available for viewing at solebox Berlin until Thursday 21 December.
