SOLES
Reducing weight, overall sole length and volume was our design team’s mission this season. We can say confidently, mission accomplished.
These new soles give people what they want… absorption, support and grip with the least amount of volume and weight.
SEPTIMIUS SOLE

Independent flex zones for the ultimate in boot binding interface. It's complex 7-piece construction is the result of countless on hill tests. Natural rubber, high-tech EVA, arch support inserts, and innovative lasting form are the signature characteristics of the seventh generation of Northwave soles.
I.H.S. (Internal Highback System)
Determines the flex of every boot depending on its flex rate. Designed to keep the side of the boot soft and forgiving, but gives you full support in your heel where it is necessary.
FOOTBEDS
Northwave's footbeds are made with to work directly with Stroble Construction. They combine EVA materials to deliver the perfect footbed for maximum comfort and power transmission. Northwave's Skyhike Series uses a blend of Adaptafit memory foam, lightweight EVA and a nylon cage to provide the most advanced, supportive footbeds with super shock absorption.
