Product Specifications

When you try SOM Footwear your first surprise will be its light weight. Then you'll find that there is more room for your toes than most of the shoes on the market, and that's what makes the shoe so very comfortable.

Design updates from before 2018:
Our current models are built with the same qualities found in all SOM shoes: a roomy toe-box, zero-drop sole, & lightweight construction. All models after 2018 offer design improvements, providing increased flexibility and stability, while preserving the same lightweight feel.

Nutrail Lacing System: All the Nutrail models (Cross Sport (NS), Air (NA) Reflect (NR)) offer an innovative lacing system to make the shoes feel lighter on the feet.

MADE IN USA: We are the ONLY sneaker company in Colorado that manufactures ALL of our shoe models right here under the same roof, from raw materials to finished product. VEGAN: NO animal products were used in the making of our shoes.
