Product Description
LOW-PROFILE TRAIL SHOE FOR TECHNICAL MOUNTAIN TERRAIN
The Arc'teryx Vertex Speed Low Women's is a lightweight, low-profile running shoe designed for technical vertical terrain and fast movement on demanding trails. Its hybrid design combines climbing-inspired precision with mountain-running efficiency, using shock-absorbing cushioning, targeted traction and a close-to-ground feel to support confident movement across hard rock and softer trail surfaces.
A mapped dual-density midsole combines softer heel and midfoot cushioning with firmer forefoot support, while the Vibram® Megagrip outsole with LITEBASE technology delivers durable traction across varied conditions. Zoned lug patterns target forefoot grip, and a forefoot TPU film adds underfoot protection and improved stability.
The abrasion-resistant PFAS-free Matryx® woven polyester upper is lightweight, breathable and flexible, with laminated TPU reinforcement zones for extra protection. A stretchy knit collar helps seal out debris, while the secure lacing system and tongue pocket help maintain a precise fit and keep the laces controlled on technical terrain.
