Key Features

Bespoke Arnitel® Midsole
Constructed with a custom Arnitel® TPEE (Thermoplastic Polyester Elastomer) blend to deliver high energy return, structured support, and long-lasting durability.

Bio-Circular Dyneema® Upper
The seamless upper is woven entirely from bio-circular Dyneema® fibre — recognized as one of the world’s strongest and lightest fibres™ — engineered for peak performance with a reduced environmental footprint. The bio-based Dyneema® fibre utilizes a mass balance approach, is sustainably sourced, bluesign® approved, and ISCC certified.

norda™ x Dyneema® Laces
Diamond-pattern laces made with bio-circular Dyneema® offer four times the strength of standard laces with enhanced abrasion resistance. Made from 100% recycled materials.

norda™ x Vibram® Sole Plate
Inspired by the rock formations of the Canadian Shield, the exclusive Vibram® sole features Litebase® technology to reduce overall sole weight by approximately 30%, helping conserve energy and enhance performance. Vibram® Megagrip® rubber ensures superior durability and reliable traction on both wet and dry surfaces.

norda™ Lock System
An ultra-light sock-like gusset construction eliminates tongue slippage while improving overall fit and comfort.
