For our forth year in the capital of functional fashion and the Mecca of all trail fanatics, we find ourselves again in Chamonix for the 2024 installment of UTMB, the most prestigious trail running race and the brightest moment for this industry in Europe and the world.

As a good tradition, we landed there in a sleek Canadian starship, to reveal the most race ready ultimate trail super shoe the world has seen – Norda 005, which was so fast in got here before the 4th model was even teased. Made for racing, this all white minimal shoe is surely to offer even more ultimate performance and durability, being absolutely featherweight at just around 215 grams. The rest of the industry might need some homework done to catch up to this trailblazer and we are eager to see more pros wearing it out in the world once it goes on sale this winter.

Here are some memorable moments from the week we spent with Norda Fam for your review.
