Northwave Celsius XC GTX Mountain Bike ShoesCreated for the cold and wet weather of winter, the Northwave Celsius XC GTX Mountain Bike Shoes keep you riding trails and enjoying cosy feet when the going gets tough. The Celsius XC GTX Mountain Bike Shoes rely on a Pique Gore-Tex® membrane for their all-weather performance. This provides a waterproof and windproof barrier while also offering an excellent degree of insulation against temperatures that hover around freezing. Wet weather protection is enhanced further by the flexible neoprene Easyfit Climaflex collar. This prevents water from seeping inside but still allows for smooth unrestricted pedalling. Lastly, the four-layer insole provides outstanding insulation, complementing the Pique Gore-Tex membrane perfectly. Jaws Carbon-Reinforced Sole Riding off-road needs a sole that delivers good pedalling efficiency and support but at the same time some flex to soak up the bumps. And this is exactly what you get with the Jaws Carbon-Reinforced Sole. Rated by Northwave at 8 out of 15 for stiffness, it will propel you forward as soon as you apply power but won't leave your feet buzzing with pins and needles across rough trails. The rubber grip provides traction off the bike and studs can be added for added grip on the muddiest of trails. SLW2 closure systemKeeping the fit snug and comfortable, the SLW2 closure system allows you to dial in the fit just how you like it. The micro-adjust dial gives precise control of the fit but then at the end of a ride, a single button release makes it easy to kick off your shoes. Quick. Simple, Durable. Precise. And in conjunction with the Overlap design of the upper, a great fit without pressure points is made possible. Cleat GuidanceThese MTB shoes are compatible with MTB pedal systems, which use cleats with SPD standard (2-bolt standard), e.g.: Shimano SPD, Time ATAC, CrankBrothers, CrankBrothers Race, Look MTB, Xtreme MTB, Wellgo MTB, Ritchey MTB.

The Rebel 3 MTB Shoes are a high-performance shoe for all you lovers of riding fast off-road, be it XC loops, cyclocross races or gravel challenges. Featuring Northwave's BioMap unibody construction upper, the Rebel 3s wrap your foot perfectly, making you as one with your bike. Push on the pedals and the shoe holds your foot in the ideal position for optimal efficiency and all-day comfort. Not only comfortable, but the upper is also tough. TPU Thermo welded reinforcements feature across the whole upper, fending off bumps, abrasions and scratches that are an inevitable part of mountain biking. The smooth unibody construction also reduces areas that could chafe and cause discomfort while also giving a striking race-ready look. Copious ventilation holes also prevent your feet from overheating. Carbon XC 12 Sole Getting the power down on a lung-bursting climb or kicking up the dirt on a technical downhill, with a full carbon insert across the pedal/cleat contact area, the Carbon XC 12 Sole gives you instant power transfer for speedy progress and maximum efficiency across any terrain. Meanwhile, the extra flex in the medial zone takes out the buzz from the trail, adding comfort for your longer off-road rides. The tread is kept to a minimum, reducing weight, but the TPU inserts are strategically placed to give optimal traction when you need it most - perfect for muddy trails and wet cyclocross races. The tough TPU inserts are also highly durable, ensuring grip is retained over the long haul. Dual SLW 3 Closure System The SLW3, developed by X-Dial, builds and improves upon the previous iterations, making the fit and adjustment of your shoes quicker and easier than ever. It gives micrometric adjustment both to increase foothold and to release pressure. Twist to tighten. Press the side button to release pressure incrementally. All easily done on the go. A single button pull also makes it easy to release the laces at the end of your ride too. Quick. Simple, Durable. Precise. A no-fuss and comfortable fit every time. Cleat Guidance These MTB shoes are compatible with MTB pedal systems, which use cleats with SPD standard (2-bolt standard), e.g.: Shimano SPD, Time ATAC, CrankBrothers, CrankBrothers Race, Look MTB, Xtreme MTB, Wellgo MTB, Ritchey MTB.
Traditionally waterproof cycling jackets have focused on keeping rain sealed out but aerodynamics have taken a back seat, resulting in too much material and excessive drag - no good for racing or fast training. The Rainskin Jacket, however, is not only waterproof it's engineered to offer uncompromised aerodynamics too, saving precious energy and optimising speed in a race where every watt counts. The 2.5-ply construction features Northwave's H2O Flex membrane giving you 10,000 mm waterproof protection and a four-way stretch for exceptional freedom of movement. Fully taped seams and DWR water repellent treatment ramp up the wet weather protection still further. The Rainskin also makes use of an award-winning P4Dry™ printing process combined with S.Café® technology to deliver rapid drying and more comfort against the skin when the rain is constantly coming and going throughout your ride. Breathability is also excellent and is enhanced by rear vents, letting warm damp air escape and evaporate away before it can cause a chill. Thanks to its packability it's also a cycling jacket you'll be able to take on every ride.
Why let the rain stop your mountain biking fun. The Enduro Hardshell Cycling Jacket uses Northwave's H20 membrane to keep rain from getting in. Rated to 10,000 mm of waterproof protection, this keeps you drier for longer when storm clouds burst. Fully taped seams also prevent water seepage while the outer also features a durable water-repellent (DWR) finish to prevent wetting out of the jacket surface and fends of muddy splashes too. A waterproof front zipper also provides a secure seal against the elements. When it comes to mountain biking you can soon build up some body heat. But with the underarm vents, you can easily keep in control of ventilation. Zip them open to dump heat and boost breathability on a climb. Zip them closed when you're facing into the rain or need extra protection on the downhills. Should conditions take a real turn for the worse, the adjustable hood is helmet compatible so adds extra protection when needed. Lastly, a waterproof chest pocket makes space to stash some essentials within easy reach.
