Get ready to fly through the trails with the new Brooks Catamount 2. Featuring Brook’s new SkyVault propulsion plate, the Catamount 2 delivers a snappy and responsive ride with each step. Not only will you power uphill with ease, but the plate doubles as a rock shield for protection against roots and rocks. Get ready for speed—the nitrogen-infused DNA Flash midsole is fine-tuned to deliver a responsive and lightweight ride to let you run your fastest. The TrailTrack outsole gives you traction on both wet and dry surfaces, so you are surefooted as you speed through the trail. The upper is made for the rugged outdoors with a dual-side air mesh that is abrasion-resistant and hydrophobic on the outer layer, while the inner layer is made from recycled materials that are soft and dry fast. There are internal reinforcements around the midfoot and a half-bootie tongue construction to keep your foot locked in, while a TPU toe cap protects against debris. Plus, there are drainage slits that allow water to quickly drain from your shoe when you cross a creek or step into puddles. The Brooks Catamount 2 catapults you to the tops of mountains with ease.
