The North Face Ultra MT Winter

The North Face is the brand that has helped explorers reach the fathomless heights of the Himalayas by creating an extensive line of high-performance footwear and equipment. A clear example of this is The North Face Ultra MT Winter trail running shoes.

The North Face is constantly pushing the boundaries of innovation, always seeking to be the first choice for climbers, mountaineers, extreme skiers, snowboarders, endurance runners and the world's foremost explorers.

The Ultra MT Winter shoes are the latest addition to The North Face's line of mountain footwear. Designed for snow and high alpine mountain conditions, the Ultra MT Winter was created to protect feet from the snow. Of particular note is its "zippered upper, made with breathable, splash-resistant Hydroseal technology." The shoes are snowshoe compatible and have extra-deep Vibram soles to ensure extreme traction.

Flash Dry, moisture management

The upper features a durable rip-stop mesh in the forefoot for optimal protection. The material was designed to not deteriorate quickly. FlashDry collar lining prevents blisters and keeps you dry.

Flash Dry is a technology that uses innovative fabrics that have been patented, incorporating microporous additives that improve moisture management and temperature regulation. This guarantees evaporative drying speed, high performance in a wide range of weather conditions and all this without adding weight or bulk. The Ultra MT Winter is a phenomenal moisture management shoe, maintaining a good temperature even in deep snow.

The Ultra MT Winter's upper keeps out debris so the runner can focus on what's important. The heel canvas material, inspired by mountaineering boot designs, provides durability in this high-wear area.

Vibram outsole to ensure traction

The midsole has been manufactured in 2 pieces to provide adequate cushioning in the heel and forefoot area. ESS nylon has been placed in the forefoot to distribute the impact and protect the foot from bruising that can be caused by impact with rocks. This shoe is very well assembled and designed. You will be impressed with the weld and overall construction of this model.

The wide lugged Vibram outsole allows for good traction in the snow. The North Face collaborated with Vibram, long respected for their quality and durability, on various types of outsoles, this type of outsole ensures superior traction, stability and protection.

On hard snow, dirt and rock, the shoes perform very well. The sole unit has a height of 17 mm at the heel and 9 mm at the forefoot, resulting in a drop of 8 mm.
