NORTHWAVE

Northwave is an Italian snowboard brand and its history began in the 90s. At that time, some snowboarders came up with the idea of combining the Big Boy sole of Northwave snow boots with an upper of a skate sneaker, thus creating an après-ski shoe to be used off the ski slopes. It was the Espresso, one of the symbolic shoes of the nineties, all over the world and especially in Japan.
