Nike Sportswear hand-selected a number of the imprint’s most popular running models throughout the 90s and early 2000s for their latest model, the head-turning Nike LunarCharge slated to release on November 18th for $120 USD. For those interested in the inspiration behind the shoe, simply check out the photo above with all of the classic models it references: the Air Max 90, Air Flow, Air Current, Air Presto, and the modern LunarEpic.

The Nike LunarCharge Premium LE benefits from an updated Lunarlon outsole unit that features a unique ‘Nike’ callout on the midsole for a change of pace. The slip-on upper features a contemporary aesthetic comprised of past influences like the Nike Air Flow’s neoprene, the Nike Air Max 90’s eye-stay, the overall shape of the classic Nike Air Current, and even internal elements from the recently retro’d Nike Air Presto.

The Nike LunarCharge LE will debut in a simple “Oreo” like colorway thanks to a speckled support system, black, heather grey, and a polka-dotted toecap. Premium suede hits the heel tab with additional ‘Nike’ text branding stitched in a matching grey shade. What do you think of the upcoming NSW model?
