An innovative sole, flexible where needed and with large rubber inserts for maximum comfort and stability, an XC-derived fit and the best of Northwave’s off-road know-how: Hammer Plus makes versatility its strength and is the perfect companion for anyone whose priority in cycling is fun and adventure
A lightweight, breathable, and versatile shoe designed for the different facets of off-road riding. With the XC 10 sole, dual-layer TPU upper, and X-Dial SLW3 closure system with velcro strap, Razer is the new go-to companion for every cyclist who rides without boundaries.
Off-road cycling is no longer just one thing: today’s riders move seamlessly from gravel randonnées to XC trails, from weekend bikepacking trips to leisurely touring. With Razer, Northwave has created a shoe that keeps up with this evolution, blending comfort and versatility in a single model, built for those who are always finding new ways to enjoy the ride.
At the heart of Razer is the XC 10 sole, with a stiffness index of 10 (on a scale up to 15), delivering efficient power transfer to the pedals without compromising comfort. Strategically placed TPU inserts provide traction and durability, making Razer ideal for tackling the full spectrum of off-road challenges, while ensuring protection and longevity.
The dual-layer TPU upper wraps the foot and promotes ventilation, with reinforced toe and heel sections protecting both shoe and rider from impacts and abrasions. Inside, a silicone lining on the heel prevents slipping while pedaling. Fabric eyelets ensure even pressure distribution, while the mesh tongue enhances breathability and all-day comfort.
For closure, Razer combines the precision of the X-Dial SLW3 rotor, offering fast and intuitive micrometric adjustments even while riding, with the practicality of a velcro strap for quick, personalized fit at any time. The SLW3 rotor is compact, lightweight, easy to replace, and intuitive: twist to tighten, or press the side button to release the cable step by step, all without taking your eyes off the trail.
Available in three colors (plus a women-specific version) and in sizes 36 to 48, Northwave Razer is available now at a suggested retail price of €169.90.
