The Canadian brand Arc’Teryx has been designing impressive outdoor clothing and gear since its inception as the climbing gear company Rock Solid in 1989. Having rebranded as Arc’Teryx and drawing inspiration from the Archaeopteryx fossil for its logo, it has become a manufacturer renowned for its rugged durability and exceptional performance. This reputation is evident in the new Arc’Teryx Norvan 4 Nivalis Shoe, designed primarily for mountain running but also featuring a stylish design for wear on social occasions.

Presented in a clean and minimalist design, it has been optimized for the harshest winter conditions, reflecting the brand’s deep Canadian roots in the wilderness.  Constructed to allow for uninterrupted passage over the most inhospitable terrain, the Arc’Teryx Norvan 4 Nivalis Shoe blends stability with a fully watertight and comfortable design. The GORE-TEX upper cover provides maximum protection, complemented by an over-ankle gaiter that keeps out water and snow, ensuring your feet stay dry.

For the tread, the Arc’Teryx Norvan 4 Nivalis Shoe incorporates winter-optimized outsole lugs, with the option to add carbide spikes or slip-on Microspikes when traversing icy surfaces. Finishing touches on the Arc’Teryx Norvan 4 Nivalis Shoe are equally impressive, from the compressed EVA for added stability to the forefoot grip that enhances climbing on rocks.

Bring all of these features together, and the Arc’Teryx Norvan 4 Nivalis Shoe is a highly capable footwear option for all-terrain exploration in the harshest weather conditions.
