From the mind of Nike Skateboarding professional Paul Rodriguez, the new Lunar Rod model is the product of combining the sole of a Lunar Braata shoe with the upper from Paul’s latest signature model, the P-Rod VI. It just so happened that these two seemingly distant points in the footwear spectrum fit together perfectly, and the Lunar Rod was born.

As owner of LA’s Primitive shop, Paul has become a sneaker aficionado in the face of a constant barrage of footwear, and realizes the key influence that running shoes have had on skate shoes over the years. Utilizing the same creative instinct and ability to adapt that’s made him one of the top skaters of all-time, Rodriguez once again shows his signature flare with a running outsole in the same experimental fashion as both the P-Rod 2s and P-Rod 5s were given in limited capacities years prior.
