Customer Reviews The North Face Vectiv Exploris Futurelight

If you have wide feet (likely not a problem with narrower feet), the shoe will occasion pain at the inner metatarsophalangeal joint of each foot. There is a seam that is particularly sharp inside the shoe (on the inner side) which digs deeply into the joint and causes pain if your feet are wide (I am a black man). In my experience with wider feet the pain does not go away (thicker socks do not help). I used scissors and electronic wire cutting tools to get through a membrane and remove the offending (likely redundant) seams inside the shoe. So far so good. Still gave 5 stars because the shoes look great and I believe I fixed them. I would only recommend to a person with narrower feet than my own.

Really great hiking shoes. They are very comfortable and high quality. I wish the laces were a bit gripper so they would stay tight other than that they're perfect.

These shoes are very comfortable right out of the box. Besides giving great stability for the trails, they are also great for walking around the city and our nightly walks around the neighborhood. I would highly recommend to anyone who wants a great comfortable shoe!!

Great quality

Very comfortable

The shoe is very well made. I am so surprised in the difference of qualities of shoes this one is one of the best

Best shoe ever don't know how Northface has done it ,much more premium products yhan other manufacture of shoes

Amazing shoes. Great for waking low alpine or street adventures. Very well built no issues or sore spots wile getting use to them . No hot spots

These shoes are extremely comfortable, the outside is water proof, and just overall comfortable fit. I use these shoes as everyday wear. Will continue to be buying these shoes as long as the make them.

Walked 500 Miles on them.over past 6 months. Great shoes. Only bad thing.... unfortunately the soles are loosing traction as grip almost gone. Had an ankle injury about a year ago and these shoes are very stable, nice and wide and very comfortable to wear.

Great

I have been using North Face athletic shoes for treadmill daily use for years. This is the best model of their shoes that I have seen. Highly recommended.

I use them for work. The help with my knee so much I ordered the sneakers also so I can have some to wear when I'm not working. WHOEVER INVENTED VECTIV. I OWN U. THANK YOU SINCERELY

I love this shoe for light trail hikes!

I'm so happy with my vector exploris Futurelight,

I bought these for my husband's birthday and he wore them on a trip to Iceland. He said the comfort was unmatched.

These shoes are very comfortable and hard wearing durable. A bit apprehensive when I first bought as lots of bad reviews.Great shoes for 500 miles/ month

I use these exclusively for backpacking and so far I like them. Only put about 45 miles on them so far though. First night was a downpour, shoes were soaked but My feet feel great when I get to camp which is a plus coming from 6 other brands I've tried. By morning they were nice and dry in my tent. I actually like these so much I just ordered the Mid version of this shoe (which is waterproof I believe). I'd recommend to get a half size bigger.

They run a little narrow however very comfortable after a week of wearing

Works great and feels comfortable

Great shoe! So light! Runs more narrow than other NF shoes, so had to return
