Arc'teryx Norvan Nivalis GTX (Smoke Bluff / Smoke Bluff)

The Arc'teryx Norvan Nivalis GTX is a trail running shoe for long-distance runs in wet, cold, wintery conditions. Designed for weather protection and confident grip – without sacrificing ride, response, and cushioning – the Arc'teryx Norvan Nivalis GTX has been built with a durable, flexible upper lined with a Gore-Tex bootie for waterproof, breathable protection. A highly breathable water-repellent stretch gaiter with a front zip closure extends to the ankle for added protection from snow, water, and mud entry. The internal construction of the Arc'teryx Norvan Nivalis GTX minimizes friction, the toe box is sized to accommodate splay, and the heel and forefoot stack absorbs shock. Advanced materials include a Vibram® LiteBase sole and InFuse® midsole to shed grams, and a grippy Vibram® Megagrip rubber compound with an aggressive 6 mm lug pattern for a confident bite on winter trails.
