Positive

Likes the ground feel of the Catamount 3 after moving from the Hierro, and usually gets at least 400 miles out of a pair.

Blog · Doctors of Running – Matt Klein (DPT) · summarized

Positive

Overall grade B. A nimble, snappy, durable uptempo trail racer. One tester's personal grade is B-: similar to last year, the foam is too firm, the plate isn't as snappy as hoped, and it is pricey for what you get.
