The Explorer sole with a calibrated stiffness midsole combines optimal power transfer in the pedal area with an ideally flexible medial zone so it also feels great when walking. 28% more abrasion resistant than TPU, the Michelin rubber tread provides excellent grip on all surfaces.
Coated with a protective water-repellent film, the ultra-comfortable upper also has strategically placed reinforcements for
enhanced impact resistance. Laser holes improve breathability.

EXPLORER SOLE:
Northwave developed this sole with Michelin Technical Soles to combine XC performance with the traction to walk securely on any terrain. The calibrated stiffness midsole unleashes pure power in the pedal area, while the more flexible medial zone makes it feel great when walking. The tread, whose pattern is inspired by two Michelin off-road tyres, and the outer shell are made from 100% Michelin rubber which is 28% more wear resistant than TPU and
delivers excellent grip in all weathers.
REGULAR FIT: Tests on hundreds of feet and countless trials have created the perfect shape for transferring 100% of your power straight to the pedals. The toe is designed to be just the right size to prevent any numbness, while the slightly set-back instep and the special snug-fitting design of the heel hold the foot in place during every pedal stroke and prevent any slipping.
Sole standard: compatible with all common MTB pedal systems
