The rechargeable hiking shoe that's built for longevity & works with your body

The Astral Nosobo™ Hiking Shoe redefines what you expect from performance footwear. Engineered for thru-hiking, Nosobo™ delivers exceptional durability, cushioning, and grip. At the heart of the design is the replaceable Rechargeable™ drop-in midsole, which can be replaced to extend both the life and comfort of your shoes, restoring the spring in your step and the lifespan of your shoes.

The Rechargeable™ mid-soles are more than just an insole and contain a majority of the cushioning in shoes that wear out first. Built with DirectConnect™ construction, the outsole is permanently bonded and stitched directly to the upper, preventing the common problem of sole separation after hundreds of miles. Combined with G.15™ Rubber and the new Trail Grip 2™ Outsole, Nosobo™ offers elite traction and abrasion resistance on rugged terrain.

With a durable exterior and a midsole designed to be replaced once it wears out, the Astral Nosobo™ represents a more natural and environmentally friendly future for long-distance trail shoes.

Features:

Rechargeable™ drop-in midsoles: Exceptional cushioning that can be replaced to extend shoe life and refresh comfort. Most hikers can "recharge" their midsoles several times within the lifespan of the outer Nosobo shoe.
Biodynamic Shape™: Wider toe box allows natural toe splay, improving balance and propulsion
DirectConnect™ construction: Outsole is stitched and bonded directly to the upper, eliminating delamination
Balanced Geometry™: Zero drop Level Footbed® and wider toe box align with your foot’s natural position for stability and support
Legendary G Rubber™ grip: Non-marking, high-friction rubber grips wet or dry surfaces with high abrasion resistance
Zero drop: With 20mm stack height for optimal ground feel and protection
85% recycled (rPET) upper and laces: More environmentally-conscious materials
Ankle gaiter compatible: Integrated velcro at the heel can attach to velcro on ankle gaiters for added trail protection]
