The i-Run team says
Embark on the snowy trails
Designed for your trail adventures, the The North Face Flight Vectiv Guard Futurelight shoe for men is a model of reliability. Ideal for long distances, it allows you to brave the elements without constraint.
The ingenious construction of the Vectiv technology relies on a 3D carbon fiber plate that rewards your strides with a stunning energy return. Combined with a rocker-shaped midsole, you benefit from a smooth foot roll.
The two layers of foam effectively absorb impacts with the ground, thus delaying fatigue kilometer after kilometer.
The zippered gaiter is designed with the Futurelight waterproof process and extremely durable fabrics like Kevlar and polyamide. High-rise, it ensures complete protection in the snow or under the rain.
Comfortable, the bootie wraps your foot with great precision. At the midfoot, you find the Matryx process which promises custom support and exemplary breathability.
The various TPU reinforcements help improve the durability of the whole, while a heel counter secures your journeys even more. The padded tongue and the Achilles tendon cushion allow you to fully enjoy your exploits.
Do not shy away from any trail, the outsole is entirely made of Surface Control rubber for increased grip. Its 5 mm lugs enhance your traction and guarantee explosive traction.
