After debuting a “Cinder” colorway of the 001 earlier in the week, norda has revealed the two other releases that’ll accompany it: the 002 and 003‘s own “Cinder” colorways. The first new colorways of the 002 and 003 to be released since the former debuted in May 2023 and the latter arrived via a collaboration with HAVEN in November 2023, the new offerings combine with the aforementioned 001 to provide a three-headed monster of advanced performance and crisp colorblocking.
The 002, which norda designed to be a lower-profile counterpart to the 001 that prioritizes responsive cushioning and ground feel, features a full tan upper, midsole and outsole, given dark contrast by its black eyestays, laces and tongue. A subtle grid pattern can also be seen across the entirety of the top half. The 003, a laceless option made with “scrambles” and mountain approaches in mind, follows a similar dark-on-top, light-on-bottom color scheme, but differentiates itself with a gum outsole. Each makes use of norda’s signature technologies, namely a fully custom bio-based Dyneema upper and top-tier Vibram components like SLE midsoles for long-lasting cushioning plus outsoles that utilize both Litebase tech to cut weight and Megagrip setups to enhance traction.
Expect both the norda 002 and 003 in “Cinder” to touch down on the norda webstore alongside the 001 “Cinder” on March 1. Each will be priced at $285 USD.
