Designing the Nike Flyknit Lunar1+

“Nike Flyknit technology has redefined the way that we create footwear.”

The unveiling of Flyknit was perhaps the most significant story of last year, with several Nike buffs calling the Flyknit sneaker the #1 release of the year. While the Air Yeezy 2 and Air Foamposite One ‘Galaxy’ undoubtedly had that “must-have” sneaker-sex appeal, neither release will be as meaningful as Flyknit will be for years to come. What’s amazing is that what’s been revealed to us thus far is just the tip of the metaphorical iceberg, but Nike is ready to move forward with all that Flyknit has to offer by debuting the Nike Flyknit Lunar1+ in mid-February. In this video, Nike Running footwear designer Rob Williams walks us through the design, function, and potential of this outstanding new design, so check out the clip below and let us know if you were one of the select group that picked Flyknit as the #1 release of 2012.
