Norda Bills Its 002 as “World’s Most Responsive” Trail Runner

Norda has garnered the respect of hardcore trail runners since debuting with the 001 sneaker in 2021. Now, the Canadian brand is introducing its second silhouette in the 002, which it’s describing as the “the world’s most responsive trail running shoe.”

Like the 001, the 002’s upper is composed of a bio-based Dyneema textile that’s twice as strong as Kevlar with half the weight. The paneling on the sequel is a tad pared down, with the paneling around the collar removed and the counter now a single piece. Swooping lines bring to mind a topographical map and run down the length of the upper.

Down low, the Vibram SLE midsole sees a lower stack height to give you a better sense of the ground and new geometry for better stability. Further down, Vibram Litebase and Megagrip work together to provide a strong grip with minimal weight. Two black and white colorways have been revealed, and they make a clean swap in colors with one highlighting the gridded lines of the Dyneema upper.

Norda is still teasing the launch for the 002, with a release date yet to be revealed. What we can tell you is that it’ll run $295, and there’s a reason why Norda has taken hold within the outdoor community so quickly. Download the DROPS by SoleSavy app to keep up on all the best releases.

Sole Savy is unreal! With a busy schedule it’s hard to keep up on shoes, and the group keeps me up to date on releases, tips on how to manually cop, and a marketplace with killer deals from fellow like minded collectors. It’s changed the sneaker game for me!

@SoleSavy is the truth. They've helped me cop kicks I never would've imagined getting at retail. Members always willing to assist on drops too. And most of all, a REAL community of REAL sneakerheads. These guys should be the gold standard for sneaker communities! #LifetimeMember

My membership paid for itself three fold by being solely responsible for my union 4’s, mesh sacai waffles, sacai blazers, court purple aj1s, glow in the dark yeezy 350s, travis scott lows (which I traded to get desert ore ow’s), air max 1 londons, bc3’s for way under retail etc.

Can't say enough about SS. The stellar help with copping shoes is a given but it's the community that makes it extra special. Hands down one of the best decisions I made as a wannabe sneakerhead.

The community of sneakerheads and resources available to help manually cop are great and really will help you get more Ws. The Zoom calls for hyped drops like Union Jordan 4 only adds to the camaraderie while providing real time instruction
