Nike Launch The Lunar Gato II "Blue/Metallic Silver"

The welcome return of 2013’s favourite street-smashing king of the cage continues as Nike launch the LunarGato II in its second colourway of 2019, bringing some fresh spring feels to your small-sided style.

Bringing back the versatile mix of traction, support and stability that’s synonymous with the LunarGato II, Nike has once again presented an option for players that need performance benefits authentically inspired by the nature of the sport. This is a small-sided shoe, designed for the small-sided game. It’s not a reinvention of an on-pitch silo.

This latest aesthetic for the LunarGato II wraps the rear of the shoe entirely in the blue colouring, keeping the vamp – and basically any area that you would kick the ball with – white or "Metallic Silver" if we're being picky.

Packed with everything that made it one of the top performing shoes in Nike’s FootballX repertoire back in 2013, the LunarGato is exactly as you remember it. That means the Lunarlon cushioning system of its name, coupled with the non-marking court rubber outsole; the flexing ridges of the outsole, designed to support multi-directional traction and agile underfoot ball control when dribbling or shooting.

The super-soft leather in the forefoot remain, along with Hyperfused mesh panels in the midfoot for structure and breathability in the upper. Finally, the reinforced vamp enhances a superb ball feel for ultimate touch plus extra durability.
