ARC’TERYX: FOUNDED IN THE IDEA THERE IS ALWAYS A BETTER WAY.
Who is Arc’teryx? It is a Canadian technical high-performance apparel, outerwear and equipment company, founded firtsly in 1989 as Rock Solid and as of 1991 with the name we know it today: ARC’TERYX. Since 2001 is also part of the Amer Sports Group together with brands like: Salomon, Suunto, Atomic, Peak Performance, Wilson and many others.

Many of you might know Arc’teryx by its logo, many of you might think what it is? Do not worry, we will let you know.
The logo and the name of the Canadian brand refer to an Archaeopteryx, which is one of the first birds and a transition form between the first dinosaurs and the actual birds. The logo, designed by Michael Hofler, was based on the “Berliln specimen”: fossil of the bird with the most complete skeleton found until now.
Following that founding idea, the Canadians believe there is always a better way, and it is that philosophy what make them create outstanding outdoor and mountaneering products using the latest technologies having always very present the sustanibility and care for the planet.

ARC’TERYX NORVAN LD 3: HIGHLIGHTS
- VIBRAM MEGRAGRIP LITEBASE SOLE: a trail running shoe that includes a sole with the Vibram Megagrip compound is already a guarantee of grip and durability, in addition the Litebase compound brings lightness to the shoe.
- INFUSE FOAM: the midsole of the shoe incorporates the Impulse foam, developed by the same brand, which provides a good cushioning, very light and without losing reactivity in each of our strides.
ARC’TERYX NORVAN LD 3: CONCLUSION
We have here a trail running shoe designed for long distances, very light and with top quality finishes that, surely, does not have the renown or visibility of other similar shoes of more commercial brands and known by the public, but that we can not miss.
Incorporating the Vibram Megragrip Litebase sole is a guarantee that we have a shoe with great grip and durability, on the other hand, we will have to check during the test if the Impulse foam we have in the midsole works well for long distances which is what this shoe is focused on.
The lightness of the shoe, the protection at key points and the good breathability of the cover are also aspects that we must highlight, in addition to the quality of the materials and a beautiful design that we always find in all Arc’teryx products and that these Norvan LD 3 are no exception.
