Product Details

norda 055 Men's Trail Running Shoes The norda 055 combines race-day grade resilience and responsiveness with a build designed to tackle the world's most technical terrain. Its one-piece knit "sock" collar - a first for norda footwear - supplies a "second skin" fit to keep trail detritus out and the wearer's foot locked in place, while a bespoke Arnitel midsole ensures benchmark rebound and stable mechanical properties across all conditions and climates. Bio-Dyneema Circular Woven Upper The 055 has been constructed with bio-circular woven Dyneema uppers, which have been combined with nylon to enhance durability. Bio-Dyneema is a super-durable material, exclusively manufactured by Avient, with an ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethene and is the strongest of any thermoplastic. Bio-Dyneema design is up to 15 times stronger than steel, yet still floats in water. This unique compound, therefore, protects feet in changing environments, preventing damage from bumps and scrapes on the trail. The upper's lightweight structure, combined with its unique weave pattern, prevents overheating. The upper encourages cool, fresh air to circulate through the shoes, preventing that uncomfortable, clammy feeling, for distraction-free strides. The shoes also feature quick-drying properties that reduce the build-up of sweat or moisture, keeping feet dry and cool. Made with Dyneema, the laces are 4 times stronger than standard laces, with greater abrasion resistance and improved stretch. Compared to laces in other norda models, these have been slimmed from 5mm to 4mm to reduce weight. Working in tandem to lock down the midfoot, the norda fit-lock system uses a proprietary interior foot-binding technology delivering unwavering stability by working with the seamless knit collar and the laces to provide a versatile, customisable fit with exceptional lockdown. The seamless one-piece collar has no hot spots or weak points for a second-skin feel that prevents dirt and debris from entering. Enhancing visibility, the shoes feature reflective linework that provides 360-degree reflectivity so you can be seen and kept safe when running in low-light conditions. norda x Arnitel TPEE Midsole For the midsole norda has utilised an Arnitel TPEE compound for soft, cushioned wearing, which ensures lightweight comfort, for effortless strides across treacherous trails. Arnitel TPEE is a lightweight, resilient compound to provide high-performance standards for non-stop wearable comfort and distraction-free experiences. The soft, cushioned compound withstands long journeys while providing shock-absorbing properties to help reduce the risks of injury when tackling changing terrains. Working with this, the custom-designed eTPU insole provides optimum energy absorption and excellent return to propel you into your next stride. Vibram Megagrip Elite Outsole Completing the 055 is a Vibram Megagrip Elite outsole, a high-performance, sticky rubber that delivers exceptional grip and traction on both dry and wet surfaces. The outsole also incorporates linework inspired by the topography of Quebec. norda has included lips on the front and rear for increased durability, while 5mm lugs provide increased traction and seamless transitions between technical trail routes, digging into the ground beneath effortlessly for a sure footing with every step. | Norda 055 Men's Trail Running Shoes | UK 7.5 in Strato
