The Nike Ladies Lunar Speed 3 Tennis Shoe forms part of the 2012 Maria Sharapova Collection to be worn by Maria herself at the Australian Open as she makes her bid for glory at this year's tournament.

The official shoe of international tennis star Maria Sharapova, the Nike Lunar Speed 3 is modeled after the original but enhanced with next-generation Flywire technology. Still comprised of thin, super-strong nylon fibers that help keep the foot in place, this latest version better conforms to the foot for even more support with less material. The result is a lightweight design with the ultimate in stability, flexible strength and comfort.

Hard-charging, high-impact games require a shoe that's extra-responsive. Thanks to Lunarlon cushioning, the Nike Lunar Speed 3 can handle endless start and stop action. Super-lightweight, flexible and packing plenty of springy response, Lunarlon absorbs every hit with ease. A specially designed, extra-durable outsole in a herringbone pattern delivers the ground-gripping traction and speed you need to dominate the grass, clay or hardtop. At the toe tip, the same resilient rubber provides drag protection and durability.
