The North Face VECTIV Enduris III Athlete Women's Trail Running Shoes

The newest iteration of the VECTIV Trail Running Shoes harnesses foot-propelling technology to help you achieve your next PR.

3D-Printed Upper

Featuring a protective, durable 3D-printed upper, the VECTIV Enduris IIIs supply your feet with an exceptional layer of protection and durability. A firm, but flexible upper construction means that feet are well shielded from the elements, yet your feet can still move comfortably when wearing the shoes, preparing you well for the trail. Perforations through the upper allow your feet to breathe, supplying you with a constant level of airflow, preventing uncomfortable heat build-up and keeping your feet cool under pressure. The shoes have an updated width to accommodate a broader set of consumers' foot shapes, whilst also meaning a more comfortable fit. A soft, cushioned tongue sits against your foot comfortably, and tongue wings have been designed to reduce in-shoe slippage, and enhance the step-in comfort and fit. A traditional lace-up also allows you to get a locked-in secure fit.

VECTIV 2.0 Midsole

A VECTIV 2.0 rockered midsole features in the midsection of the VECTIV Enduris III, this offers a forked heel, alongside a 3D TPU plate for increased lateral stability. The VECTIV system works to provide you with more energy return by reducing fatigue and helping you to prepare for the next toe-off. The technology works underfoot to transfer energy into momentum, propelling you forward for comfortable and efficient strides. The lightweight, responsive dual-density midsole provides you with a highly cushioned and highly stable ride and further assists with forward propulsion. This excellent midsole construction helps to increase your speed with every step.

SurfaceCTRL Outsole

Designed to be hardwearing and grippy the VECTIV Enduris III Trail Running Shoes have been developed using the signature SurfaceCTRL Rubber Outsole. This bio-based outsole rubber compound has been specially designed to ensure superior traction on both wet and dry surfaces. Not only does this, but it also works to ensure multi-directional traction on a wide range of surfaces and will withstand even the toughest trails yet, whilst being flexible enough to adapt to multiple terrains providing you with complete control. The durable rubber works to protect itself from damage, and protect users from losing control and slipping and has been designed to hold firm on uneven terrain so you can have complete confidence on the toughest terrains. Completing the outsole are 3.5 mm lugs that provide the optimal balance between traction and durability on the trail. The lugs dig deep into wet mud and slippery rocks to ensure added traction and control. This will also benefit you by acting as a solid base for you to push off from when taking a stride, as well as digging into the ground when braking and changing direction.
