Northwave offers MTB, road and gravel shoes with high-quality materials and innovative technologies. The northern Italian brand knows its craft and always keeps its finger on the pulse. Collaborations with weatherproof materials such as Polartec, Primaloft and Gore-Tex characterise the brand, as does the X-Dial technology anchored in the twist closure of many shoes. Having previously specialised in boots for snowboarding, Northwave discovered the potential of the cycling industry in the early 90s. The pursuit of freedom and closeness to nature ultimately connects both sports, so the knowledge from winter sports flows directly into the development of cycling products. The brand quickly achieved success when Paola Pezzo became Olympic champion in Atlanta in 1996 wearing Northwave MTB shoes. Road cycling legends such as Mario Cipollini, Tom Boonen, Fabian Cancellara and Philippe Gilbert also celebrated great victories while wearing Northwave road cycling shoes.
