Very light and comfortable
Warning: Runs small! In most sneakers brands, I am either 6,5 or 7, so I thought 7 would be fine in these shoes, but nope. I went to the store and ended up buying 7.5 and even considered 8. Definitely size up! It is not narrow for my feet, which are neither narrow nor wide, though. I got them in g...

Not the same quality as before
I loved my old Vectiv's that I bought a few years ago, they wore really well. I walked in them everyday, on pavement, dirt trails and in the snow. I used them hiking as well, a 10km day was still feeling pretty good in them! I purchased this new pair in April, started wearing them in May, my first h...

Great on comfort, poor on tread durability

Comments about Women’s VECTIV Fastpack FUTURELIGHT™ Hiking Shoes
I have arthritis in the long bones of my right foot and these shoes are very comfortable, offer a wide toe box, and the rocker style helps ease arthritis foot pain when walking. For comfort I would rate them a 5. However, for tread durability I would rate them a 3 or less. When I use them for walking it's typically a 3.5 mile walk (on pavement or concrete) daily. The heel tread on these shoes shows severe wear after just 3 months which is crazy for shoes that are this expensive. I've never had shoe treads wear out so quickly. If these shoes weren't so comfortable for my arthritic foot, I wouldn't buy them. For now, I just look for sales on the shoes.
Love these shoes!

Comments about Women’s VECTIV Fastpack FUTURELIGHT™ Hiking Shoes
Very comfortable and also pretty cool. I appreciate the amount of support it provides for my foot and the way my foot sits in this shoe. I have a relatively narrow foot and often find my feet sliding around inside hiking shoes - but these are great. Will definitely get lots of use out of them too, because they are super sturdy.
The most natural fit of any shoe I've purchased.

I felt comfortable, steady, and dry after my first morning dewy hike. I'm excited for my future hikes in these shoes. I'm a true 8.5 and I did size up to 9.

Great shoes for hiking so far. I felt very steady and my feet stayed drying during a morning dewy hike. I did size up from an 8.5 to 9.

Great shoe for hiking rough trail, light and tough. Has a bit more 'plasticky' look in person. I guess that's the waterproofing.
Excellent purchase

Comments about Women’s VECTIV Fastpack FUTURELIGHT™ Hiking Shoes
These hiking shoes are just what I was looking for. Without spending much time breaking them in ahead of time, I hiked Mt. Monadnock in NH. The treads gripped really well on the smooth granite rock faces and supported me sufficiently scrambling down the boulders. I came down blister-free. And I love the color. They do run small/short: I usually wear a 10 or 10.5 women's. In size 10.5, my toe nearly hit the top. An 11 is just right.
Shoes fit well and are comfortable.

Comments about Women’s VECTIV Fastpack FUTURELIGHT™ Hiking Shoes
The shoes fit well and are very comfortable. They have kept my feet dry, but I have not been in a down pour. My feet get a little hot, but that is likely just my feet. I wish that I could find dark brown shows rather than lavender.
