Thanks so much for all reviews, very useful. I bought Nike LunarGlide+ 3 for Woman in November last year. I love the design and the lightness of the shoes.

The downside is after running around 6K(average 8 min/km), it started to get hurt. I developed blister and my knee is giving problem. (not sure, whether it’s coming from the shoes or other factor).

I kept trying different distance with the shoes. My personal conclusion : the shoes is great for 5K run and for walking. I will not use the shoes again for above 5K. I also found that the shoes tends to slip when walking in the wet floor. For running now, I am back to my old pegassus.

Milan, thank you very much for your comment. It’s comments like these that make this website great!
We review our shoes after running at least 30 miles in them (unless it’s Tom, he cracks 100 miles before we know he started running in a shoe!) but each runner is different and what it’s great for one, might not work for another. I run in both the LunarGlide and the Free – they are extremely different shoes. I don’t forefoot strike but have a quite efficient midfoot strike. I liked my LG for longer runs, and I LOVE the frees, but after 7-8km I start missing some extra cushioning….

I wish I found this website before I bought this shoe (although I did try to do some research). I’ve been using Mizunos until I bought this shoe. Felt comfortable in the store until I took it out for a 10k run yesterday for the first time. All I can say … ouch. Things are starting to hurt. Today I tried again, and 3km into my 5k run, I had to stop. As one reviewer stated above, it’s hard to forefoot strike in these. They just seem too soft for longer runs, or else my foot is just moving all over the place inside of them … I don’t know, but all of sudden today my knees are hurting, calves are sore, ankles are sore. Haven’t had these problems in the Mizunos. Too bad since it’s a nice looking shoe. Maybe I should try the Nike Free next time.

Incredible! This blog looks exactly like my old one! It’s on a completely different subject but it has pretty much the same page layout and design. Wonderful choice of colors!

these shoes, i paid $200 in australia (us and oz dollar is the same). in the us they cost $99!

within 3 months they were falling apart. The insides of the heel split open, and i have to tape up my heels with elastoplast every day so i dont get blisters as they cut me open, and its painful. Secondly the foam sole has worn down very significantly.

I am a fit, active person, and i treat my shoes well. some nikes i have had for 10 years. These ones i would have thrown away already if they didnt cost so much! Im not in a hurry to buy more nikes, thinking of switching to Asics. Dont want to waste my money again!

I walk for 50 min, 6 days a week. I also work out in the gym for 45 min 5 times a week. I treat my shoes well, but these unfortunately were really crap!

Hi there,

Oh wow, I can’t believe how much solid information is on this page about the Nike Lunar Glide’s.

Seriously, Video explanations, consumer opinions, and even price checks!

Thanks for taking the time to put together such a meaningful blog post.

Cheers,

Justin

I have worn these sneakers for about 3 months doing about 35 to 40 miles workout per week. The first thing I noticed that the backs of the shoes were starting to fall apart secondly the heels were stating
to become to flexible thus making it unstable to excercise with let alone give you proper support. The floor bed of the shoe seems to warping from the heat and constant usuage. These shoes have technical and design flaws and for the price they are unsuitable for a person who is out jogging everyday.

I just bought a pair and have run 6 km (12 km/hr) with them on a treadmill (30 minutes). I’m very impressed. Excellent ride. No pain at all. But I’ll suspend judgment until I’ve run them on the road and on the track. I’m a medium-sized runner with very low arches and an overpronator. In 6 years of running, I’ve had recurring achilles tendinitis, some left hip pain, and a little soreness along the side of my right knee. I don’t do high mileages, so I’m guessing I might have been using the wrong shoes all these time.

The first thing I noticed about the Lunarglide was that they’re very comfortable. And oh, the cushioning…when they say “It’s like running on pillows,” it is. As for pronation control, I really don’t know how that is supposed to feel like. All I care about is that my achilles don’t scream from all the tugging and my hips and knees don’t ache from all the pounding. So, it’s really a relief to just run pain-free for once, just like how it was at the beginning. Again, I hope these promising results continue as I take my running to the road.

I hope I won’t be disappointed.
