Norda unquestionably stands as a top innovator in trail running shoes. The versatility and quality found in their models such as the all-terrain 001, the close-to-the-ground 002, the ready-for-climbing 003, and the highly-developed 005 have left a lasting impression on UTMB race champions, casual runners, and enthusiasts of high-tech athletic gear.

Although dedicated runners like to push their limits, they still require breaks now and then. That’s why Norda has introduced its inaugural sandal, the 008, designed for those moments when you’re not hitting the tracks. Available in four hues – “Sage,” “Oud,” “Hinoki,” & “Névé” – the 008 boasts a luxurious dual-density foam construction, reinforced by a bespoke Vibram Ecostep EVO outsole. Each colorway maintains a harmonious tone and minimal branding, with a subtle Norda logo embossed on the lateral forefoot. Keen-eyed followers of the brand might also spot that the footbed’s pattern mirrors that of Norda’s outsoles, specifically a unique design inspired by the Canadian Shield, the robust pre-Cambrian rock formation spanning our planet.








If you’re wondering why the item labeled ‘008’ appears after ‘005’ and there seems to be no ‘006’ or ‘007’, it’s because Norda’s product names are based on the Fibonacci sequence, a pattern where each number is the sum of the two before it. This sequence has connections with the “Golden Ratio,” a mathematical principle that can be observed in many natural occurrences.

On June 12th, I can’t wait to snag the Norda 008 directly from their online store! The price will be set at a reasonable $145 USD.
