Lunar90 Flyknit Chukka - July 3rd - NikeLab

I like when Nike does this. It makes the whole line un-wantable.

guess i am in the minority but I like projects like the Chukka FSB and these Max air versions ^^^. Anyone willing to lend a hand with the orange ones in NYC, hit me up Via PM.

Anyone think about copping? If this was an 11 I would have definitely pulled the trigger. I think these are underpriced IMO

you call 450 underpriced??

I understand it with the mega-hype shoes like Jordans and I know what HTM means, but still I would never pay that kind of money for a chukka.

Anything <$500 for HTM chukkas is considered a good price by most.  Hard to find them for less.

My small chukka collection. One of the most comfortable models Nike has ever done (imo).

Well, I am confirmed jelly. All I'd add are some uni reds and I'd be all finished.

Just got my trophy chukkas in and I can safely say I'm no longer a hater of the free sole. These are absolutely beautiful. The low profile sole with a mid/high top sneaker looks pretty cool, and less chunky than the lunar. I went TTS and they fit great. The one thing I've noticed is the free toebox is more squared off than the lunar, thus giving the toe area a little bit more room. It's tough to tell in this photo but easy to see in person.You could get away with .5 down but I absolutely would not recommended a full size. Here's a comparison, both 8.5.View media item 1056606

What color is that lunar90 on top in that pic Orange? 

Please have these in a 15!!!!

Awesome collection @WiscoSiD

All the best looking pairs, IMO. I still need to find some Night Factors for a good price, I beat my Wolf Greys up way too much.

I like to wear them really tight so they work fine for me. Could use different color laces, but im not sure what would even look good.

Yea. Im sayin even as tight as i can lace them I can barely tie them so they look stupid with such small loops

Where can I get a pair of the Lunar Chukka in the Night Factor colorway size 12? I've searched through most popular sites and can't find anything.

@Ragnar Lodbrok  Size 12 for $140 -- http://www.citygear.com/Nike-Lunar-Flyknit-Chukka-Black-and-Volt.html 

 

[ragnar lodbrok]

yo thanks man.  This is the only colorway I like out of the last release for the Lunar Chukkas.  I'm glad they're still around in my size for a decent price.  much appreciated.  

 

[ragnar lodbrok]

I really like some of the colorways for the free sole chukkas but I can't get past the free sole, I prefer the lunar sole.  The Free sole doesn't look as good to me and I can't see it being more comfortable than lunar.  The lunar 90 sole looks terrible to me.  Nike needs to stick with the lunar sole but put out diff sole colors instead of using a white sole for most.

 You bet man. I like the color a lot as well and wear them often - you won't be disappointed.

What do most people use to clean the white lunar sole of the chukkas? Seems like the dirt almost bonds with the sole.

Jason Markk and the standard brush it comes with works great. If you don't have that, a Mr Clean magic eraser or simply a rag and dish soap work well too.

Here's an a article on the July Free Chukkas.

 Been praying for a chukka in light brown...they definitely will be copped.
