The Northwave Extreme XC 2 cycling shoe continues Northwave's legend in the mountain bike world. It's the shoe that made XC racing history and remains the preferred choice of the world's best riders. The new Extreme XC 2 delivers unparalleled lightness and responsiveness, whether you're tackling technical rock terrain or tackling a steep climb.

ARS (Anatomic Reticular Support) technology provides an exoskeleton that perfectly surrounds the foot, adapting to individual foot types and enabling efficient power transfer to the pedal in a controlled manner.

The dual X-DIAL SLW3 system and the new dual-zone closure system allow for differential pressure on the toe area and the upper part of the instep.

The Hyperlight XC sole, made entirely of unidirectional carbon fiber with a stiffness index of 14.0, guarantees full power transfer. Developed in partnership with Michelin, the sole delivers unparalleled speed and control.

Michelin rubber inserts are 28% more durable than TPU, and Dual Layer Compound technology provides excellent grip and weight reduction.

An abrasion-resistant, ultra-thin TPU reinforcement element provides complete protection for the entire upper.

The mesh insert prevents overheating, even on the hottest summer days.

Dual density inserts provide a perfect, individually tailored fit (3mm and 5mm thickness).

Thanks to these features, the Northwave Extreme XC 2 continues the legend of Northwave cycling shoes, delivering unparalleled lightness, responsiveness and fit.
