Summit VECTIV Pro 3 maximizes rebound and stability for ultra-distance trail racing
What Our Gearhead Experts Are Saying:
'I’ve raced ultras in the Summit VECTIV Pro 3 and it’s the most responsive trail shoe I’ve used. The dual-plate system delivers serious propulsion, and the DREAM foam is so bouncy without ever feeling mushy. Even late in a 50K, my feet feel supported and energized.'
Built for the podium and engineered for endurance, the Summit VECTIV Pro 3 from The North Face is our race-day weapon when every second matters. Designed with input from elite trail athletes, this shoe was made to tackle ultra distances with a precise fit, next-level propulsion, and long-haul comfort. Whether we're charging up alpine ridgelines or grinding through the final miles of a 100K, we trust the Pro 3 to keep us moving forward with confidence and speed.
The dual-layer VECTIV 3.0 plate system is the heart of this shoe: a full-length carbon-fiber propulsion plate paired with a recycled carbon-fiber stability plate above it for a blend of spring and control that feels race-tuned and terrain-ready. Underfoot, the DREAM midsole offers ultra-lightweight, high-rebound cushioning, and a DREAM foam insert directly underfoot adds even more propulsion where we need it most. The breathable, water-repellent upper molds to the foot with internal skeletal support and integrated tongue wings, locking us in through the most technical stretches.
