Norda 001A RZ Fireclay

The norda 001A RZ Fireclay takes the brand’s flagship trail runner and pushes it into even more technical territory. Built for harsh climates and unforgiving terrain, this upgraded version refines everything that made the original 001 a breakout success.

The biggest evolution sits underfoot. A bespoke Arnitel TPEE midsole replaces traditional foams, delivering impressive energy return with reduced weight. The ride feels bouncy and propulsive while maintaining long distance comfort. Paired with an eTPU insole, the cushioning remains lively without sacrificing stability.

Up top, the seamless bio based Dyneema upper provides exceptional durability at a remarkably low weight. It resists abrasion from rocks and roots while offering a secure, sock like fit thanks to the norda Lock System. Diamond pattern Dyneema laces enhance strength, and the one piece construction minimizes pressure points on extended efforts.

Underneath, a Vibram Litebase soleplate with 5 mm Mega Grip lugs ensures confident traction on wet rock, loose gravel and dry trail alike. It is a setup designed to conserve energy while maintaining control on demanding routes.

The RZ edition also supports athlete Ray Zahab’s impossible2possible initiative, with a portion of sales contributing to experiential learning programs worldwide. High performance meets real purpose, making the 001A RZ Fireclay more than just a trail shoe.
