The Brooks Catamount 2 is finally here after three long years of factory shutdowns and supply chain issues. This new racer is a step forward for Brooks' trail shoe lineup, using the same nitrogen-infused foam found in the Hyperion Elite and Tempo.

We’ve seen plates in other trail shoes, including the Hoka Tecton X, which has two parallel plates in its midsole, and the Saucony Edge. The Catamount 2’s SkyVault is specially made for providing enhanced proficiency on the uphill and a smooth and stable ride on the descent, making it primed for rolling trails. Testers liked the shoe’s pop, describing the ride as “fast and fun.” Some, however, said it traded support for a lighter weight. “My current go-to is the Caldera 6, which has a mattress-like midsole,” said a tester. “So, I wasn’t surprised I was feeling more of the ground with the Catamount 2.”
