I love them!

very roomy within the shoe, I am unable to have snug fitting shoes(if you know me you'll probably know why)especially towards the toes but with the laces done up they do not slip and slide and I have never ever had one blister despite running 5ks to Marathons in them

soft exterior

good cushioning

flexible

because they are a fantastic all round shoe for me I wear them all the time... not a good look when it comes to a suit and trainers (especially with the orange colour).

they also clash in colour whilst running in my yellow banana costume

sadly they don't make me run any faster but unless I get a mobility scooter I actually don't think that I will get any faster :-)

I would buy them over and over again and use them for multi-purpose road racing, walking and pottering about (obviously not cross country or multi terrain although I have used them for trail and they did me proud - it helped being a nice dry day)

Very light and responsive, surprisingly good fit, feel quick without cushioning being stodgy.

Used to avoid Nike because fit was terrible for me (not too wide and 'shallow' from sole to top of foot), especially their trail shoes, but these are much better (so maybe bear in mind if Nike fitted you well in the past). Wanted something with less intrusion from motion control but not as heavy/spongy as super-cushioned Asics Kinsei I already had. Lovely quick feel right from the off, don't really notice them, easy free transition from strike to toe-off.

Day-glo colours a bit of a shock - if you're buying online, they're brighter in real-life than on the screen. Full price a bit steep for a shoe with not a lot in it.

Nike Lunar Glide

I bought them because I just wear Nikes, they reviewed well, looked good and thought I would give'em a punt. They are light responsive and comfortable and OK for 30-45 minutes on a treadmill and maybe a short 5k road race.

Poor support and cushioning so no good for anything over 10k or hilly road runs.

Im really disappointed in Nike, these are expensive bling aimed at the fashion conscious amongst us. Its worked because there are plenty of lunarglides (including mine) on show at my local gym but the concensus is that they are ok for short runs on the treadmill, but anything more serious get some proper shoes!
