Norda 001A Shoes

Woven from bio based Dyneema fabric, the Norda 001A Shoes in Star Anise solve the problem of trail footwear tearing open under harsh rock abrasion. The lightweight upper material provides extreme tensile strength while remaining fully breathable for long distance running. Equipped with a custom Vibram Megagrip lugged rubber sole and a shock absorbing EVA midsole, this technical trail runner delivers maximum traction and underfoot protection across wet boulders, loose dirt, and steep forest paths.

Key Features

• Bio based Dyneema upper weave offers exceptional tear resistance and long term durability.
• Custom Vibram Megagrip outsole with Litebase construction provides sticky traction on wet and dry terrain.
• Custom engineered EVA midsole dampens heavy trail impacts to preserve leg energy.
• Hi-Vis 360 degree reflective accents improve safety during low light trail runs.
• Internal sleeve construction hugs the midfoot tightly to prevent foot sliding inside the shoe.
• Abrasion resistant Dyneema laces hold knot tension without slipping or stretching.

At Urban Industry We Recommend These For

• Ultra distance trail marathons, mountain running, and technical off road ascents.
• Fast hiking across muddy woodland tracks, gravel trails, and wet granite routes.
• Runners needing tough upper protection and high grip traction on unpredictable terrain.

Fit & Sizing Recommendations

• Official sizing from the brand recommends keeping in mind the snug internal sleeve, which creates a locked in fit around the midfoot.
• Norda advises opting for a half size up from your standard shoe size to give toes comfortable room to expand during long distance runs.
• Padded heel counter locks the rearfoot securely in place, preventing heel lift on steep climbs.

Washing & Care Instructions

• Brush away dried mud and loose trail grit using a soft bristle brush after every run.
• Clean uppers gently using a damp cloth, cool water, and a mild footwear soap.
• Air dry naturally in a well ventilated room away from direct heat sources.
• Do not wash in a washing machine, tumble dry, or clean with harsh detergents.
