Lightweight and abrasion resistant, The North Face Betasso Trail Running Shoe for men is highly adaptable to a variety of surfaces. A Tri-density compression-molded EVA midsole, Roll Control® dual-density medial heel post, and lightweight UltrATAC; rubber outsole conspire to give exceptional stability and traction.
Not all of us have a different pair of trail runners shelved in our cavernous walk-in closets for every kind of terrain and weather. Fortunately, The North Face engineered the all-purpose Men's Betasso Trail Running Shoe for the rank and file, muddy-and-grinning trail runner with barely enough space in his apartment for a dachshund and a potted plant. Breathe easy through the ventilating lightweight mesh while the harness stabilizer and medial heel post protect your foot's natural stride path. The North Face Betasso's featherweight UltrATAC rubber outsole grinds through the muck like a Sherman tank on uppers without sacrificing the trifecta of comfort delivered by a Northotic foot bed, tri-density EVA midsole and X2-O2 heel cushioning.

The North Face Betasso trail running shoe features a lightweight, abrasion resistant, synthetic upper with reflective material on the webbing and toe, as well as the medial and lateral lace panels. Northotic ergonomically designed footbed with Poron forefoot and heel inserts. Tri-density CMEVA midsole with X2-0™ heel cushioning. Roll Control dual-density, medial heel post provides support for moderate overpronators. Ultra lightweight UltraTAC™ rubber outsole adds enhanced traction on varied terrain. Wt. 12.6 oz.

A lightweight trail-running shoe that is highly durable, stable, and adaptable to all surfaces from gnarly singletrack to occasional road. Stability-driven design constructed for the medium-arched pronator.

So Far So Good | |

| I probably should wait until I've put a few months of daily running on The North Face Men's Betasso Trail Running Shoe before giving them a review but so far they are doing a nice job. They feel solid underfoot yet have a lightweight feel. My impression is that they are a good value. The only aspect that could be better for me is the rather roomy feel in the forefoot. I have an average width/volume foot yet I feel a little extra room up front. I'm convinced that the length is correct, however. | |

One word,...Sweet! their as comfortable as it gets. i have three pairs of shoes that cost over 100 bucks that aren't as comfortable as these. i've treked through swampy muck and muddy waters with no problems. if you plan on being outdoors in the spring, winter, and fall these are the shoes to get. they breathe so easily though that the only down side is cold feet in the winter, but that's the perk in the warmer temps. Enjoy | |
Good overall shoe | |

Light enough to race in (Stinson Beach 30K) and well made enough to last on long training runs on Mt. Diablo. I am very happy with these shoes which I got at the North Face Outlet in Berkeley. I'll be buying another pair from this site too. | |
Made for people on the move... | |

No need to break in. Just wear it after you receive it. Good looks and very comfortable. I use orthotics and this shoe fits me well with it inserted. Give it a try. | |
best shoe ever | |

I have been wearing this shoe since the day I bought it. NO COMPLAINS at all, good looking ,comfortable and sturdy till now. | |

| The moment you put them on, they feel like they are molded especially for you. I wear 10.5 and my Adidas shoes feel a bit tight, but these are just right - and they are so light that you forget you have shoes. Very stable and the style does not require any description. | |

| First time I purchased from shoes.com Shoes shipped quickly and were exactly as described on the site. Size was perfect. The North Face sneakers are AWESOME. So comfortable and very breathable. I'd buy them again. |
more stylish than functional | |

I'm glad other people are liking this shoe. I've had problems with it. The front portion of the sole has come off of both shoes (within 2-3 months of use). I tried to glue it back, but that didn't fix it for very long. I like how sturdy the shoe feels while running, especially around the heal, I just hope the sole doesn't come completely off the front. | |
awful | |

Pretty good shoe. One makes a squeek when walking at times, very light weight and not expensive. I use these for the gym. | |
