Straat Picks: Our Favorite Sneaker Midsole Technologies of Today

4) Nike Lunarlon

Never could quite master the moonwalk? With the Nike Lunarlon now you can. The inspiration behind the Lunarlon was the motion of an astronaut on the moon.

The idea was to create something soft yet responsive to the movement of the foot. The result is a sole that is 30% lighter than standard Phylon and one that distributes impact uniformly across the foot so there is no one point of intense pressure.

Nike first introduced this technology in the form of the Lunar Racer, back in 2008 and has since introduced the technology in almost every performance shoe it has produced.
