W 001

Features

One giant leap for trail-kind. Built with the world’s first seamless Bio-Dyneema® upper and exclusive Vibram® midsole and soleplate, the 001 is engineered with the lightest and strongest materials for mindless comfort on mindful pursuits. Designed to prove that true sustainability is found in durability.

The 001 is our [norda's] “optimally-cushioned” ultra distance shoe. We [norda] think “optimally-cushioned” should mean a stack height that is generous enough to reduce impact forces from very long days on feet without sacrificing the ground feel needed to not constantly roll your ankles or cause trepidation in veering off into unruly terrain. Basically, you can consider the 001 is your daily driver workhorse designed for terrain of all distances and difficulty.

The uniquely responsive ride of the 001 (and all our models) is engineered through a unique midsole and insole combination. Our midsoles are made with a custom and proprietary Vibram® SLE EVA composite, which has highly compressive, lightweight and durability properties. An added eTPU insole with high cushioning and rebound makes the ride even more responsive.

The sidewalls extend beyond the stack height, allowing the feet more ground feel and protection despite whatever heinous trails and unfathomable miles you put them through. A seamless Bio-Dyneema® upper snugly caresses the foot without any chance of blowing out, as this material is quite literally the strongest and lightest on Earth.

In essence, the 001 is designed to endure unlike any trail shoe ever has before. Everything from a multi-day shuffle through technical terrain to a 50 mile PR on well-groomed trails feel entirely within its wheelhouse. People have also been able to get through exceptionally long thru-hikes utilizing just a single pair of 001.
