The North Face FLIGHT VECTIV is a stable, lightweight men's trail shoe that protects the foot throughout the run.
Extremely durable, this shoe features a Matryx upper that combines strong Kevlar and polyamide threads. On the other hand, this shoe focuses on comfort on hard surfaces and support even on the steepest terrain. It provides effective shock absorption over long distances, while it has internal support in the heels for better ergonomics. The flexible, breathable mesh upper enhances comfort, as does the construction, which combines a 3D carbon fiber plate, a midsole with rocker gumming andSurfaceCTRL traction. In addition, the new VECTIV technology optimizes energy on the course with a more dynamic propulsion.
Finally, the 6mm drop from toe to heel provides the perfect boost to get you up to speed.
