Norda 005 Trail Running Shoes - Men | Zephyr

- Collar
Larger collar pads for a tighter fit and to reduce debris entry.

- Tongue
The tongue material is a smooth microsuede that molds to the foot and features perforations to reduce heat.

- Upper
The open-weave Bio-Dyneema® and recycled material upper is incredibly strong and lightweight. The weave pattern allows for maximum breathability and quick water shedding.

- Midsole
The 005 features an entirely pure Arnitel® (TPEE) midsole, like no other shoe has ever had. This allows the 005 to be incredibly light and responsive while still being very durable. While most supershoes are built for race day, the 005 is built for race days - plural.

- Outsole
An all-new full-length, one-piece norda sole with the world's first release of Vibram® Mega Grip Elite rubber. This is a race day compound, which is Vibram®'s grippiest and lightest formulation ever. The increased grip of the Mega Grip Elite allows for varying lug height, which makes transitions between technical trails and dirt roads effortless.

- Laces
Laces are 4mm instead of 5mm to reduce weight. Laces are made from Dyneema®, providing increased abrasion resistance, elasticity, and 4x the strength of a standard lace.

- The norda™ Lock-In System
The 005 features a proprietary detailed fit lock-in system for race day. The heel collar is designed with pods to increase foot lock-in, comfort, and reduce debris entry. The tongue is a smooth, perforated microsuede that molds to the foot and allows heat to escape during high-intensity runs. This lock-in system is complemented by new internal foot fastening technology that engages via the laces and ensures an unshakeable hold.
