There may be no traces of the moon anywhere in these sneakers but there may be an explanation for the name. We are talking about the Nike Lunar Mariah Black Hot Red sneaker, which is available at Tier Zero accounts.

The Nike Lunar Mariah Black Hot Red sneaker may have been named after Luna because of the speckled midsole which look like well, craters in the moon. Or was that only our imagination?

This sneaker has three versions, all of which come in an over-all black upper with Black Nike Swoosh. The only difference in the versions is the accents of red, white and blue on the outsole and on the lining of the Nike swoosh.

The sneaker is a hybrid of the track racing shoe Air Mariah which was developed in 1980, as well as the Nike Eagle. These sneakers are however better versions of their original models.

While the sneaker is made of different materials in the upper and in the toe box, the attraction is really the speckled Lunar midsole. You will also find the blue, red and white accents on the tongue and on the heels of the sneakers.
