Nike Lunar Control 3 shoes review
Nike Lunar Control shoes have always provided outstanding comfort, ever since the original was introduced in 2011. That’s still the case with the Lunar Control 3, which feel fantastic. They’re soft underfoot but also offer plenty of stability, thanks to the Flywire, which wraps around the foot and holds it in place while swinging. Trying these directly up against the Lunar Control 2 shoes it was clear that you were closer to the ground, and the added cushioning was particularly noticeable at the end of a round. The overall performance is excellent, and the ability to design your own shoes through the impressive Nike iD facility means you can create unique colour combinations that are guaranteed to get you noticed.

Even in the simple colours there isn’t an understated option. Some golfers will want more of a traditional style and overall look.
