I have worn these shoes all summer for hikes - just got done visiting Yosemite and did multiple 8-16 mile trails over a week, including Mist Trail where there was water on areas of the 600 + stairs. Grip was excellent on wet granite and I had no rubbing/hot spots/blisters. These are my new favorite hikers!
Poorest quality. These shoes started to fall apart within two months and at 3 months now need replacing. The grip tread is completely worn off, the toe glue is no longer holding the sole on, and the pull on assist tab is fraying. Definitely won't be buying North Face shoes again.
