About Northwave

Written by the company

Northwave products are a true excellence of Italian design, tested by the best riders worldwide since 25 years.

At Northwave we pour all our energy into one and one thing only: creating the finest products for sport in the mountains. With a single-minded focus, we create innovative products, unmatched in terms of performance, quality, design and style.

MOUNTAIN. IT’S IN OUR BLOOD. Our Headquarters nestle at the base of the mountains, a bike and snow mecca and our daily source of inspiration for the sports we love. Whilst there are many places that claim to be the spiritual home of their sports, few are really. It’s here in the mountains that we design and test all our products, on the trails and on the slopes and at our in-house technical research facility nearby Montebelluna, worldwide renowed epicenter for the development of sport technical shoes. It’s no coincidence that Northwave as a brand has always been associated with the values that define its Alpine heritage: innovation, quality, attention to details, performance, a refined aesthetic and sustainable development. Our mountain roots are evident in all we do.

Mountain biking and snowboarding is more like a way of living than a sport that you just do in your free time. It gives you pure emotions while you are close to nature with homies. And both also gives you perfect opportunities to travel a lot, to face your limits and to basically improve yourself. It is simply your lifestyle.

Replacing 10yr old NW Arctic boots

I am replacing my 10 year old NW Arctic boots. I live in Seattle and I ride year round and these have been essential for me. Unfortunately my old pair is wearing out and needs replaced. It was not easy for me to shop and compare products and get what I was looking for. This site is a bit clumsy and not laid out too well when I want a winter boot for road, gravel, mtb. I had to go back and forth and it wasn't clear what the feature differences were.

Northwave boots and bindings

I have snowboarded with Northeave boots and bindings for over 20 years. Their products stand against the abuse of hard riding and time. Well made products, that I trust and believe in. Thank you for making a quality products.

Can't wait to get these..

Can't wait to get these... Probably the comfiest shoes I've ever worn !!!
Clocked up miles in my old pair tried to get a new pair, but seems they were out of stock a little while a go.
Really happy I've got a new set coming.

Buying because the warranty claim is taking months

Im buying this because my warranty claim for for my broken toe straps at my Drake Radar's are taking over 2 months now.

UPDATE: Moving now to one star, as I reached out to the CS team as the reply said
"Hi,
Thank you for contacting us.

if you bought them in the shop or wait for the warranty from them" 🤷🏻‍♂️

I don't even know what that means, but is definitely not helpful.

Northwave products can be great, but the Customer Service has been one of the worst experiences I had.

Also, here is a reply for the shop that is trying to claim the warranty
"Currently NW has not honored any warranty yet this season."

Shame on you, Northwave

Very nice snowboard boots

Easy to find product. But be more specific about product futures like stiffness and differences between the snowboard boots.
Fast delivery from Italy to Netherlands within 3 working days.
