The Arc'teryx Norvan LD 4 GTX delivers the ultimate fusion of waterproof protection and trail-running performance for serious mountain athletes tackling long-distance adventures across technical terrain. Built with a GORE-TEX Invisible Fit liner that maintains breathability while keeping your feet bone-dry, this four-season trail runner handles everything from muddy single-track to rocky alpine routes with confidence. The Vibram Megagrip outsole features a custom 4mm lug pattern that grips hard surfaces and bites into soft terrain while actively shedding mud to maintain traction throughout your run. At just 10 oz per shoe, the dual-density midsole provides the cushioning and shock absorption you need for all-day comfort on rugged trails, while the flexible external frame secures your midfoot to prevent forward slide and toe bang during technical descents. Whether you're logging training miles in wet conditions or embarking on multi-hour adventure runs, these trail running shoes adapt to whatever the mountain throws at you.
