Brooks Running Catamount 4

The Brooks Catamount 4 in blue for men, size 44.5, is a trail running shoe designed for male athletes, offering reliable performance on various terrains. This successor model of the Catamount builds on proven trail running technology with a focus on traction, stability, and durability. The upper material is protected by hidden overlays at strategic points against abrasion from trail debris, while remaining breathable during longer runs. A responsive midsole provides cushioning that adapts to uneven surfaces and reduces impact forces during descents and technical sections. The outsole features multidirectional lugs of varying depths, ensuring secure grip on both wet and dry surfaces such as loose gravel, firm clay, and moderately rocky ground. The fit, with a reinforced heel area and midfoot lockdown system, minimizes slippage on uneven terrain. Weighing approximately 280 g per shoe in size 44.5, the Catamount 4 offers a balanced combination of protection and agility for medium to long trail distances. The blue color showcases a predominantly blue design with contrasting details. The construction includes a tongue connected to the upper for dirt protection and a moisture-wicking lining for comfort. The shoe fits standard running socks and is compatible with third-party insoles. Size 44.5 corresponds to a foot length of about 28.5 cm. For care, it is recommended to clean the shoe with a damp cloth and let it air dry in a place away from direct heat sources to maintain material quality. This model continues the development of Brooks trail running shoes, integrating feedback from athletes and material improvements for optimized trail performance.
