About this product

The North Face Summit Run 5 is a 5-liter unisex running vest designed for road and trail running, including race-day use. Its main body is constructed from 40D nylon-elastane stretch woven fabric treated with FLASHDRY technology for moisture management, while the side panels use a nylon-elastane power mesh and the back panel features a warp knit mesh, all working together to support unrestricted movement. Two chest pockets with elastic valve stabilizers hold the two included 500 ml soft flasks securely and minimize bounce, and two additional lower chest pockets provide quick access to snacks or gels. A secure-zip chest pocket protects valuables, and a large back pocket accommodates extra layers. Upper and lower sternum straps with S/R buckles allow adjustable fit, and side compression straps let you fine-tune the fit around the rib cage. A horizontal trekking-pole sleeve, elastic hydration tube loops, an included safety whistle, and reflective logos round out the feature set. Made in Viet Nam, available in TNF White/White Ash.

What people are saying

Reviewers consistently praise the North Face Summit Series Run Vest 5 for its exceptional lightness (around 169g without flasks) and airy, breathable mesh construction that keeps it comfortable even on hot runs. The minimal bounce, secure flask pockets, and well-organized front storage are frequently highlighted strengths, along with the wide-ranging adjustability of the dual sternum straps. The trekking pole sleeve is called out as a clever, practical addition for longer races. The most common criticism is the limited rear storage, as the vest forgoes a rear compartment entirely, which can feel restrictive on longer efforts. A few reviewers also flag an annoyingly high neckline as a fit quirk, and some casual users note that the front pockets are quite small for everyday use.
