"For a brand that has consistently positioned itself at the intersection of cutting-edge performance and material innovation, norda has chosen to return to its origins with a forward-looking twist. The 001A, the latest iteration of the trail runner that launched the label into global recognition, represents both refinement and reinvention. While maintaining the essence of the original 001, the 001A incorporates proprietary upgrades designed to push trail performance further while keeping sustainability and durability central to its design ethos."
"The most significant shift in the 001A comes with its new Arnitel TPEE midsole, a proprietary addition that replaces the Vibram midsole of the original. This change is more than cosmetic; it enhances responsiveness and durability while retaining the stability that trail runners demand. Paired with an exclusive Vibram sole plate equipped with Litebase technology and Mega Grip rubber, the shoe delivers an optimal balance of traction and weight reduction."
"While the midsole represents a fresh approach, norda has retained many of the original's celebrated features. The bio-based Dyneema upper and laces return, bringing lightweight durability that is stronger than steel yet supple enough to provide all-day comfort. Reflective accents heighten visibility in low-light conditions, while norda's proprietary "Lock System" with sock gusset construction ensures a snug, stable fit that minimizes movement during long efforts."
norda's 001A returns to the brand's origins while advancing trail performance through material and structural updates. The midsole switches to a proprietary Arnitel TPEE, increasing responsiveness and durability while maintaining stability. An exclusive Vibram sole plate uses Litebase technology and Mega Grip rubber with 5.0mm lugs for improved traction and reduced weight across technical terrain. The bio-based Dyneema upper and laces provide lightweight durability stronger than steel yet supple for all-day comfort. Reflective accents and a Lock System with sock gusset construction ensure visibility and a snug, stable fit. A custom eTPU insole enhances cushioning and energy return. The 001A weighs 268 grams (men's 8.5).
