Northwave can do more than just click shoes

Northwave is well-known and successful with the Click shoe. Flat pedal shoes have so far been neglected, despite a lot of know-how about grippy soles. But now the Italian shoe manufacturers are following suit with two shoes that are made precisely for the needs of flat pedal riders. Here too, the sole is of central importance.

The sole is based on three parts that share the tasks of shock absorption, foot support, flex and grip. This sole makes its debut on two new models: On the one hand on the "Clan" shoe, which impresses with its abrasion-resistant, welded upper material with large, breathable mesh inserts and guarantees impact protection with welded reinforcements on the toe and heel. The mesh tongue with individual padding combines protection and breathability, while the closure is adjustable with non-stretch laces that can be easily stowed in the elastic holder. The Gravity sole developed with Michelin is reminiscent of the tread pattern of Michelin's Jet XCR tires and promises grip even on wet and slippery surfaces while maintaining good durability.

Also for downtown: the "Tribe"

The "Tribe" shoe is the second flat pedal model that Northwave is launching on the market for the 2019 model year. Slightly less performance-oriented than the "Clan", the "Tribe" shoe shines with its sleek and understated look, even at happy hour in the city center. The suede upper with large mesh inserts creates a cool look and makes the shoes lightweight and breathable, while protection is guaranteed by the reinforcements with abrasion-resistant rubber prints on the toe and heel and a reinforced toe cap as well as the mesh tongue with individual padding. The non-stretch laces can also be easily stowed away in the elasticated holder.
