norda 002 Shoe
norda raised the bar with the 001 and their foray into shoe manufacturing. The norda 002 follows in those giant footsteps but with a sexy, race-ready build. The never-to-disappoint Megagrip + Litebase outsole and state-of-the-art Vibram midsole remain. The stack height and drop have been lowered to 24mm and 4mm, respectively, lending itself to faster running in more technical terrain. Padding has been added behind the heel and around the collar for better retention and increased comfort. The memory foam Ortholite insole stays around because, wow! On the outside, norda somehow improved the looks, but in a sleeker, lower profile way that's guaranteed to make you 3% faster over the 50k distance. High protection, durability, bomber grip, and comfort were not forgotten, but they also come with a weight reduction. norda's 002 is a well-designed racing companion to the workhorse 001 that will surely put a kink in your morning shoe choice routine.
SkyRun Fit Tip - We recommend sizing up one-half size for a performance fit and one whole size for comfort.
- Vibram outsole permits one to run in the rain with wild abandon.
- The cat's meow is 24mm of stack with a 4mm drop.
- Gusseted tongue with ghillie and Dyneema laces so you can set it and forget it.
- Well-protected upper because fresh feet are happy feet.
- Reflective hits glisten when bathed in the light of your running partner's headlamp.
