The North Face Red Women's Vectiv Infinite

I love these shoes. They are the most comfortable running shoes right out of the box that I've ever owned. I got 500 miles out of my last pair before I was forced to buy a new pair. I'm glad I was able to buy the same shoe. The only negative is the shoe laces, which do not stay tied.

BEST shoe!

I'm obsessed with this shoe! Looked for a long time, tried so many different shoes, tried this one on and it was 'it'. Wore them the next morning on a 4 mile trial walk-run (with ice) and they were perfection. Zero break-in. Absolutely the most comfortable, supportive shoes I've owned in years!

Great for short distances

I was very excited about these shoes when I first got them. Coming from Ultra Lone Peaks I was enjoying the cushion, bounce and added ankle support. I noticed a weird rubbing along the outer ridge of my left foot during training, but I thought it would just take some adjustment and powered through. After about 80 broken up miles training with these shoes, I chose them for a 50k. The trail ended up being a ridiculous, not runnable scramble for around 15 consecutive miles, but when the trail flattened out again I couldn't run. The inner support walls that attach to the tongue of the shoes had slid down under my foot leading to intense pressure on my middle tarsal joint. It hurt too bad to run. I tried pulling the tongue up and tightening the laces, but it just kept ... MoreI was very excited about these shoes when I first got them.

I tried pulling the tongue up and tightening the laces, but it just kept slipping down. By the end of the run both sides of the inner shoe wall had slipped under my tarsal joints which caused bruising and swelling. I will continue to use the shoes and the other pair that I accidentally bought for my shorter runs, but I will be on the market for new ultra distance kicks.

I love wearing this shoe on the trail and rural roads

I love wearing these and do not want to take them off after a run. The steps feel light. I run on my forefeet and these are nimble yet stable. I run over roots, some rocks, leaves, grass, asphalt and gravel, and they are a pleasure. My feet need width at the toe box and a secure heel, not sloppy, some fusion and some stability for overpronation and a light heel but one I can rest on when tired, and a little arch support. These have it all. Love them.

If I can outsmart the overlay, I would continue buying.

I really love these shoes with one big issue--forward most overlay arch causes a blister on both feet at the base of my big toes on the forward side of the ball of my foot. I have very wide feet with high insteps, so a large volume foot. I am still playing around with lacing strategies to see if I can can get them to work for me. Otherwise, their lightness, the snug heal and minimal tongue check all the boxes for me. I actually use them for road running as I have few trails by me. The slight rocker is perfect for my speed workouts-- I just wish I could get the overlay to stop wrecking both feet.

North Face Vectiv Infinite Trail running shoes

Beautiful lightweight shoes. Bought these because I run by the sea on pebbles and uneven surfaces and the shoes give a brilliant grip whilst being extremely light, very well cushioned and breathable. They are not waterproof so don’t expect miracles. They come up small as they are pull on so ensure you get the right size.

The Compliments are endless.

As a nurse I am always looking for the great feel at the end of a long day. I am on my feet a lot. There is no time for sitting. Some days I wear other shoes but the comfort of the VECTIV Infinite is the best. The color I have is amazing and the compliments are endless.

After putting it on, your feet will enjoy the unprecedented feeling. You will feel that you are stepping on the soft carpet. You will not feel any discomfort to your feet because of the sand on the ground. Plus the shoes are very light and comfortable. This is the perfect pair of sneakers in my opinion.

Thru-Hiked the Appalachian Trail in these

I got my first pair of these shoes in Franklin, NC at Outdoor 76 after disappointment from the hyped-up Altra Lone Peaks. I was twisting my ankle almost every day in the too-wide Altra Lone Peaks and once I switched to these, the ankle-twisting decreased exponentially. I have very large (size 10-11) but narrow feet and these shoes worked amazing for me, never causing blistering. I put around 900 miles (all the way to southern PA) on my first pair of these before I really needed a new pair. I went through about 1.5 more pairs of these shoes during my 2193.1-mile trek. Anyone I met on trail with this shoe LOVED them! They are very lightweight, dry moderately well (this is more important than waterproof-ness when it comes to backpacking because everything will ... MoreI got my first pair of these shoes in Franklin, NC at Outdoor 76 after disappointment from the hyped-up Altra Lone Peaks.

Anyone I met on trail with this shoe LOVED them! They are very lightweight, dry moderately well (this is more important than waterproof-ness when it comes to backpacking because everything will eventually get wet), and last much longer than other trail runners. Hoka's are another very popular shoe on trail, however, for around the same price as these, they usually only last about half the miles that you can get on these shoes and offer the same comfort.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I had mixed feelings about these shoes. I'm not a huge fan of the upper material. It didn't seem like it served a good purpose to me and it didn't feel very good quality in my opinion. However, they did feel really good while I was running. I didn't think they were the most comfortable while I was just hanging out and walking around, but they felt really supportive and natural during a run. Felt like they really helped my body move. Also the rubber was super gripy which made me stoked.
