Northwave Extreme XCM 2 GTX Winter MTB Shoes | GMBN Tech Unboxing

[@gmbntech]

Where would you love to ride in these shoes? ❄️

[@CraigDuka]

Great review. I bought the Raptor (lower cut) version the other week. Toasty toes indeed.

[@maxMax-ns9pg]

@GMBN Tech probably my local trails to stay fit until high school team starts in Utah

[@thenevster8090]

Wisconsin!! I just joined mountain biking this year, and my season ended a month ago. Because it is Wisconsin, it's freezing at the last few races. I would love to have these. Thank you for doing all this stuff for us fans!

[@maxMax-ns9pg]

@@thenevster8090 High school teams are great and the races are sooooo fun

[@thenevster8090]

@@maxMax-ns9pg yes!! Where do you race?

[@rodriguezahr]

So far this is the most beautiful pair of winter shoes I’ve seen.

[@Montblanc1986]

Bought these after I saw the video two years ago. Amazing shoe, exactly what you need for serious winter XC training and everything in between

[@rayoperator2699]

Do your feet get wet or cold when driving thru puddles ?

[@eyeballbeard6971]

These bad boys will keep my feet warm and dry during winter rides on my fatbike in the southern parts of Sweden.

[@polishguywithhardtospellna8227]

Thanks for the competition GMBN Tech and Northwave

[@SuperMorthans]

These shoes are great! I have been commuting daily for a full Norwegian winter in the previous version of them!

[@morningtidefilms]

How is the fit? I wear a pair of Giro shoes in 45, and they are comfortable. Does Northwave give more space to compensate for being a winter shoe, meaning do I keep the same regular size or size up?

[@SuperMorthans]

@@morningtidefilms, I cannot compare to Giro, as I wear Shimano during the summer season. However, I would say that in general the fit is normal as cycling shoes goes, I normally use 42, but got these i 43. I can wear normal thickness wool socks in them comfortably, and leave some wriggleroom for my toes (which is important in cold weather). If I wear a thick woolen sock like a ski sock, they are very snug, and not too much wriggle room. Normally a standard wool sock keeps my feet very comfortable during -5 or lower days. Above this, I use a normal cycling sock just fine.

[@morningtidefilms]

Morten Hansen Jondahl, that’s really helpful. Thanks for your feedback.

[@Mindire]

Awesome shoes, great addition to my recently purchased five-tens kestral lace SPD which are great for the spring and fall but so cold during the winter, I need these Northwave winter ones!

[@andrewquinlan4368]

They look sick! I live in Canada where it can be very cold and those shoes would be wicked! I'm all about flats

[@thompsy2k6]

I'd be wearing them in Warsaw, at Kasina Bike Park, at Bielsko bike park and other local forests. Would be awesome

[@daleheffernan]

Good fall and spring shoe for where I live, but at -25 C you would get frostbite in no time if wearing these. NW's Himalaya would be a bit better, but really 45NRTH's Wolfgar are the ultimate winter riding clipless shoe.

[@glpf5]

Doddy, i'd never heard of Northwave until i started watching your channel. This summer I made the switch from flats to clips and bought a a pair of Northwave Enduro Mids and I love them! These would be great as we get into winter riding here in VT, US!

[@maxMax-ns9pg]

Those would be perfect for Utah weather right now

[@AlvaroQF]

Will try again, but i don’t expect to win them. I have heard that Northwave winter shoes are the bests ones, no rival.

[@OutdoorBiology]

These are nice because I live in Montreal and it’s it cold in winter sometimes I even use my winter boots Those are sick shoes

[@James-yy4vl]

Here come the people who live in cold countries to tell us that our winter isn’t winter.

[@odoc5809]

Looks amasing wishing everyone luck! Fingers crossed I have entered.! Thanks for the great video doddy always look forward for a video!!!

[@benrolle622]

I'd use them foe bmx racing. We are training outside the whole winter and I am freezing my feet of even with 2 degrees

[@mortonfrankfire5400]

That’s super useful timing. I’m currently looking for a pair of winter boots in this style.

[@simonmoran6009]

Would you recommend these for cycling on my road bike while doing winter training! Or is their another model suited for that ?! As l wo ‘nt be mountain biking in the near future but certainly facing the cold & water splashed from country roads ?!! Tk you 💨💯

[@hardtailrider350]

My feet where freezing last week when it was 35 degrees I’d love those

[@Psix84]

in these shoes, feet go numb from the cold at -10, for a maximum of one hour is enough

[@ColinBarling]

Entered please please would love a set of these good luck all

[@leebridgwater]

They look amazing, these could be the ultimate of winter shoes. I've entered. 👍

[@th_js]

Not really, if you use them in winter your feet will freeze.

[@James-yy4vl]

Tomi Saaranen depends where he lives, obviously.

[@th_js]

I know but here that's the case

[@SamWalker-vp9fj]

Looks nice but I’m all about flats

[@kingmedel7835]

We don't have winter here, but I wonder what would be the effects if you ride with these in shoes in humid conditions? 😕

[@martinbrimble5878]

Is there a non cleat version for normal shoes..? I hate cleated shoes and need an option

[@sand9577]

I don't ride in the snow, but I do ride under a ridiculous amount of rain. Are these shoes too warm to be used in rainy conditions?

[@jeffbrunton3291]

I already had a cheaper version from Northwave, Flash, and upgraded to this version, now warm down to zero, and don't go out below that anyway.

[@yorkchris10]

Do you need a special tool to insert studs? Or is there a threaded steel layer in the soul like for the clips. I use rubber boots cut like KD Lang does. Rubber really seals out the elements, but you can't use them if it's not cold enough or sweat.

[@maxMax-ns9pg]

Since I disnt win the the Fizik shoes hope I can win these!

[@ayallafeldman8911]

When you say the winners of the lottery

[@jma3686]

Hello , I live in Switzerland and therefore with a cold winters. I ride mountain bikes all year long. I hesitate between two shoes: Northwave EXTREME XCM 2 GTX or the HIMALAYA. Do you have an opignon or decision criteria, arguments for one or the other thx for your vdotech!

[@Mike-wm4jg]

I always enter this giveaways, thanks GMBN for doing it. But still I didn't understand when and most important where you guys announce who won!

[@gmbntech]

Hey Mike, we always announce the winners in the Dirt Shed Show.

[@Mike-wm4jg]

@@gmbntech does the winner also get an email confirming that? i am thinking that sometime it is possible to miss the show, newer saw on the video title like "winner announce" or things like that....

[@geebee3974]

Hey, how do these shoes fit? I use a Shimano Wide 40 and according to the Northwave size chart I should also get a 40 (factoring in thicker socks?)

[@MilatovichFamily]

Awesome looking shoes Doddy. But does something similar exist for flat pedals? I am not riding SPD shoes.

[@gmbntech]

Hey Zagica, North Wave have just released their own range of flat pedal riding shoes, but for something waterproof like this, we see that Shimano has the GR7 which is similar

[@owenwilcox5941]

What watches do you guys were

[@mrsNhoj28]

This could be perfect for my feet cause i always got colds in winter..🔝💯👌🏻👍🏻

[@jofhercaballas1501]

so beautiful 😍😍

[@jaramacha]

45,5 ty bych bral, škoda že jsem soutěž nestihl :D

[@GNX157]

Nice shoes but why do they, and others, insist on putting that knob on the outer side where it can be ripped off by a rock, branch, or other obstacle?

[@gmbntech]

Probably so it doesn't interfere with the crankset and disrupt your pedalling.

[@adamsandles8103]

Ireland

[@gearmaster5130]

i will just stick to my five ten freerider flat pedal shoes

[@samyoghamal9378]

Love your vedio u are the best

[@ayallafeldman8911]

I need the shoes

[@thedutchwoodworker3472]

Lovely video Whould love to give these a try in the bulge later on this year Last year my feet where pretty damn blue after a full ride

[@MaglorMusic]

No velcro strap. That won’t work for thinner legs.

[@allanmead1540]

I rarther have flats
