Northwave – High Quality Road & MTB Shoes, Eyewear & Bike Apparel

The originis of Northwave go back to 1971, when founder Gianni Piva began his journey in the shoe mecca of Montebelluna (Italy). The passion for all kinds of mountain sports was in Gianna's blood and so in 1993, after originally making shoes only for skiing and snowboarding, he decided to enter the world of cycling with Northwave. His first masterpiece was the Northwave Bi-Color Integral MTB shoe. He mixed up the previously very monotonous cycling market with his fresh two-tone design. Also in the new segment, the brand was quickly very successful and stood out especially with novel and interesting styles. A credo to which Northwave has remained true to this day: stylish cycling clothing with exciting designs without any compromises in terms of functionality and durability. 

Currently, the innovative brand offers a wide range of high-performance cycling clothing and shoes. In addition to the use of innovative technologies, Northwave puts great emphasis on a strong symbiosis between nature and the environment. Only in this way can they offer products that are functional, stylish and comfortable as well as sustainable. 

Mountain bike riding requires equipment that can withstand any trail and any weather. With their strong expertise in manufacturing MTB shoes, Northwave has made it their mission to deliver exactly what matters: performance, comfort and protection for every ride. Most known for that are the two MTB shoe models Extreme and Rebel:

• Extreme XC: A Northwave shoe created which has been designed for the highest levels of performance. Worldwide professionals from the cross-country area (XC) appreciate this MTB shoe. 
• Rebel 3: It combines outstanding performance with comfort and is available in various color options. Just what you need to highlight your personal style.
  When winter is about to come, Northwave answers with a dedicated line of winterized MTB shoes that don't compromise on cold and wet conditions. As the first cycling brand to use Gore-Tex in its MTB and road cycling shoes, Northwave is once again a pioneer. In extreme conditions, Northwave winter cycling shoes like the Celsius XC Arctic GTX keep your feet dry and warm.

The Flagship GTX with Gore-Text membrane, double SLW3 rotor and a carbon sole, developed in cooperation with Michelin, is a prime example of Northwave's commitment. He does not let cyclists down even in winter and give their best to make every tour a pleasure – no matter the conditions. 

When it comes to triathlon or road shoes, Northwave relies on a combination of aerodynamic design, lightweight materials and a fit that fits like a second skin. Shoes like the Ghost Pro or the Core Plus offer optimal power transmission thanks to stiff soles. At the same time, Northwave road cycling shoes are breathable to keep your feet cool even after intense workouts. Triathletes also appreciate the fast transition times that allow easy to put on models like the Tri-Sonic.

In the gravel shoe segment, Northwave combines the lightness and efficiency of a road shoe with the durability and grip that gravel adventurers need. Featuring a sole that is optimized for both pedaling and walking passages, shoes like the Rockstar are a perfect companion off paved roads. Another plus of the shoe series is its upper material. It offers protection from the elements, so you are optimally equipped for any terrain and can put your focus entirely on the tour.

Northwave not only gets your feet moving with its cycling shoes, but also dresses you in high-performance and stylish cycling clothing. The special feature lies in the combination of technology, innovation and Italian design.

• Jerseys: The Northwave jerseys show off not only in a wide range of colors and designs. They also impress with their technological features and choice of materials that guarantee lightness and breathability. They are designed for every season, so you are optimally equipped in any weather. 
• Pants: When it comes to its trousers, Northwave focuses on protection and comfort by offering them in different versions such as thermal, windproof and waterproof. They are designed for both summer and winter conditions. Northwave offers special pants for MTB and road cyclists, designed with ergonomic cuts and minimized seams for maximum comfort and performance. 
• Jackets: Northwave's jackets give you reliable protection and freedom of movement on any road or MTB ride. Materials such as Polartex® protect against hypothermia and allow optimal air circulation.
