Dyneema is incredibly tough yet super lightweight, which makes it a perfect material to use in a trail shoe. Indeed, Nora's 001 uses it in both its seamless one-piece upper, rendered here in a light blue, and its white diamond-designed laces. They sit atop a beefy norda x Vibram SLE midsole that blends cushioning with durability. Vibram also helped develop the sole plate featuring Litebase technology to conserve energy, enhance performance, and reduce weight and studded Mega Grip rubber for outstanding traction. An eTPU insole encourages energy return, while the norda Lock System uses sock and gusset construction for a lock-down fit.
