Northside believes that connecting with nature can be more affordable, by removing a bunch of fancy features that don't improve your experience.

So here's what really matters (explained in plain English):

Shank - A supportive material that runs beneath the boot to give it stiffness and protection on the foot from sharp objects. So it could be used for serious off-trail and in rugged terrain through all seasons

Heel Stabiliser - Provides support to improve your performance and you won't injure yourself halfway through your hike

EVA Midsole - A flexible, lightweight material to cushion your feet, adding more comfort every step of the way

Grippy Outsole - The rubber outsole provides an effective grip on surfaces to prevent slips, trips, or falls, which is common when hiking.

Seam Sealed & Waterproof Membrane - A line of tape within the boots to cover the seams, keeping your feet dry from any wet conditions.

Speed Lacing System - This allows for quick and easy lacing of your boots without wasting any precious time

Breathable Insole - Allows air to circulate in and around the insole, keeping your feet cool through hikes in hot weather

Washable Insole Membrane - New insole every time you wash, but still gives you the same comfort and performance benefits as it was brand new

• Distressed leather with padded PU collar
• Toe & heel reinforcement
• PU mudguard & heel stabiliser speed lacing system
• Multi-function breathable & washable insole lightweight
• Compression molded EVA midsole
• Rubber traction outsole

Northside is a proud reforestation partner of One Tree Planted. We plant 1 native tree locally in Australia for every full-price pair of Northside footwear sold.

Please feel free to take 30 days to try on your new Northside shoes to make sure they're the right fit for you. All we ask is you look after them, keep the tags on and don't wear them outside so if you do need to return them for any reason, they are in a resaleable condition and don't go to waste.
