Customer Reviews The North Face Ultra Fastpack III Mid GTX®

Went to Utah in January and went hiking in the snow. My feet were nice and cozy the whole time!

I recently went on a trip to New Mexico with a friend and decided to buy some hiking boots because I knew on this trip we would be doing a lot of hiking and activities like ziplining and horseback riding. I decided to check out this website and came across these and loved that they were black because I wear black mostly. I ended up buying these and they came in fast which was awesome and loved how they looked in person. They felt sturdy but not too stiff which is good because I didn't have to break them in. On my trip I wore them the first day we went hiking at Taos Valley Ski Resort to Williams Lake and Wheeler Peak and they held up great! I have weak ankles, always have even when I danced, but these supported my ankles and feet going across rocks and the steepness up the peak. We hiked over 4 miles which turned into longer hours because it was so zig zaggy and strenuous in a way, going down was the easy part though. haha I would definitely get another pair or a similar pair once these wear out. Oh, and I got compliments on them as well. The girl that worked at Angel Fire Resort that helped us put our gear on for ziplining loved them!!!

I had foot surgery last year and was worried about how I would manage hiking in my old boots. When I read the description of these boots I figured it was worth trying them. I wore them boots around my house for a few minutes then went on a 3 hour hike and had absolutely no problem no blisters- no bad/jammed toes!!! I was thrilled and would highly recommend them!

I'm new to the outdoor world so I don't have a lot of experience with other hiking boots, but I don't think I'll be trying any new ones because I love these one too much! They're super lightweight yet durable, & the give me great ankle support. Every step I took felt secure, however it felt like I was wearing a pair of lightweight tennis shoes. I also love that I didn't get any blisters after my first 4 mile hike. I would definitely recommend these over & over!

Super lightweight, comfortable and gave my ankles the support they needed on a strenuous hike. I'm delighted with my new purchase!

I've worn these all week and they are great! Super comfortable and actually waterproof!

I've worn these every day hiking out west 10+ miles a day for 2 weeks and they are great. Very light and water proof. Extremely comfortable and ideal fit. Highly recommend!

They are actually waterproof as stated!

Light, looks stylish, good quality. I ordered 7.5 and it's True to size.

They are good to go along rivers and trails to travel the mountain, durable and reliable, also comfortable

Very light weight shoe. I have to wear thin hiking socks with them, but I do have bunions so pressure points happen with a thicker sock. The top portion of shoe is very stiff and needs a good breaking in. I haven't hiked for very long in these yet, so why I gave only a 4 star rating.

Havent gotten a chance to use them yet and test their durability.

pretty lightweight. The tongue is hard to keep tucked when tying shoes because it it is not attached at the sides but stays put once the shoe is on and tied. A little long in the toe for me, but I find that most shoes are made that way now. Definitely waterproof; fall is here in the pnw and they have already gone through rain and puddles.

I'm very happy with my purchase. You can tell they are extremely well made and meant to last a long time. They are overall very comfortable but do take some breaking in. My only complaint is that on downhill slopes I felt like the back dug into my ankle a little and it was tender the next day. But I think that will get better over time.

For my sister to hike.

I use these boots for hiking and previously owned the version that came out before the grey/pink, in a size 8. I'm a pretty true size 8 among all shoes and these are far too large. Unfortunately, I've already taken them hiking and my foot slid around the entire time. Very sad about the sizing difference, I think I would need at least a full size down, if you can try these on before buying I'd highly recommend that, and if not, try the Fit Finder.

The shoe is comfortable and keeps my feet dry. Unfortunately it makes a "squishy" sound when you walk in them...and also it sounds like a loose pebble inside one of my shoe as well. I would probably would get different shoes next time. My friends also could hear my shoe sounds as well.

I really wanted to like these boots as I was looking for light-weight hiking boots that would be waterproof. My husband has the male model of these boots and he highly recommended them. Unfortunately, I'm not a fan. Tha boots seem to sturdy/stiff where they shouldn't be - around the toes, not really comfortable; and too soft where they shouldn't be - around your ankles where you need support. I ended up returning them. I added a star in my review for their lightness as indeed they are very light (700g per pair).

Please bring back the endurus hiking shoe. This replaced the endurus but the foam is much stiffer and much less comfortable. I could walk all day long in the endurus comfortably. With the fast pack, my feet get tired and sore relatively quickly. Please bring back the endurus for your customers that prefer a soft, supportive foam feel.
