This New Version Of The Nordkapp Now Features A Mixture Of 2.0/2.2Mm Supple Full Grain Anfibio Leather To Offer More Flexibility And “Out Of Box” Comfort.

The Upper Is A Seamless One-Piece Construction, Made From First Grade 2.6Mm Italian Nubuck, Backed Up By A Sympatex Waterproof Lining. Added Protection To The Upper Comes From A Full Rubber Rand With Increased Height Around The Toe And A Higher Collar Gives Excellent Ankle Stability.
